Embarking on a mesmerising journey through the tranquil waters of Halong Bay, the UNESCO World Heritage Site.
From 08:20: Start picking up customers from hotels in the Old Quarter (optional outside the old quarter). 3 - hour driving on modern comfortable bus from Hanoi by National Motorway through the Red River delta is a great opportunity to see what daily life is like for Vietnamese farmers.
Take a rest stop at a halfway point for short rest before continuing to Halong Bay. The most interesting glimpses into rural life come during February and June when whole families are busy transplanting the young rice plants to the growing fields.
About 12:00: Arrive in Halong cruise port. Here you’ll on board and head into the bay. A fresh seafood lunch (vegetarian available if requested) is served on the way out.
The limestone bedrock and sheer cliffs of the countless islets have inspired local people to come up with equally fanciful names: Stone Dogs Island, Duck Island, Finger Island, Incense Burner Island, and Fighting Cocks Island, the symbol of Halong Bay.
Experiencing 30-minute Kayaking or Bamboo boat around the islands and water tunnels and bask in the charm of this natural paradise.

About 16:30: You will cruise back to Tuan Chau cruise port, where the bus is waiting for you to go back to Hanoi.

From 19:00: The trip ends at your hotel or drop- off address, take advantage returning Hanoi early for more activities such as going to Train station, Taking overnight bus to Sapa or to Airport for late flight or just simply joining Night Market, Beer Street, Shopping,.. in the Old Quarter
