A vehicle and guide will pick up guests from hotels in Hanoi’s Old Quarter and the Opera House for a trip to explore Halong Bay

Traveling via the Hanoi – Hai Phong – Quang Ninh highway, the journey takes approximately 2.5 hours. There will be a 20-minute rest stop for guests to stretch and relax. This new highway has reduced the travel time from Hanoi to Halong Bay from 5 hours previously to just 3.5 hours.

Upon arrival at Tuan Chau Harbor, guests will board the cruise and set sail to explore the beauty of Halong Bay. During the journey, guests will visit famous sites such as Dinh Huong Island, Cock Fighting Island, and Trong Mai Island, and marvel at the grandeur of thousands of large and small limestone islands.

Guests will enjoy a buffet lunch at the luxurious restaurant on the 5-star cruise, featuring a diverse menu of Asian and European dishes, traditional delicacies, and the distinctive seafood of Halong Bay. This meal is sure to leave a lasting impression of Halong Bay's culinary delights.

Sung Sot Cave, located on Bo Hon Island in Halong Bay, is one of the most beautiful and largest caves in the area. Visitors will climb steep stone steps and immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the surroundings. Inside the cave, you'll be amazed by the magnificent stalactites and the vast space, creating a sense of awe and wonder. It’s an ideal experience for those who love exploration and nature.

Luon Cave on Bo Hon Island is a stunning destination with pristine and tranquil natural scenery. This enclosed cave, situated along the coastline, is surrounded by towering cliffs and features a narrow entrance. Inside, the brackish water lake spans about 1 km² and is perfect for water sports such as kayaking. Visitors can either paddle their own kayak or choose to ride in a small boat with a guide to explore the cave’s beauty. The scene inside the cave is described as a vivid natural painting, serene and clear.

Ti Top Island, located in Halong Bay, is a wonderful destination featuring a crescent-shaped beach and crystal-clear waters. The beach is always cleaned by the tide, making it perfect for swimming and relaxation. Additionally, visitors can climb over 400 stone steps to the top of Ti Top Mountain to enjoy panoramic views of Halong Bay with its stunning limestone peaks. The island's historical significance is enhanced by the visit of President Ho Chi Minh and Soviet cosmonaut Gherman Titov, who the island is named after.

After the activities, guests return to the cruise to relax and enjoy the slowly setting sunset. A complimentary afternoon tea is served with tea, fresh fruit juices, pastries, and seasonal fruits. This is the perfect moment to capture beautiful photos and memories of the heritage bay.
