Full description

Begin with a pickup from your hotel in Hanoi Old Quarter. Travel by limousine or shuttle bus through the express highway to Halong Bay. Stop for a short break for breakfast and personal needs.

Visit a pearl farm to see the cultivation of different kinds of pearls using the Mikimoto technique. Then, head to the harbor and embark on a boat. Enjoy a welcome drink as the tour guide announces the itinerary for the following 6 hours of cruising time.

Enjoy a set-menu lunch as the boat cruises among the islands and islets of Halong Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay. Stop at Luon Cave, a fascinating wet cave. Choose to kayak through the silent waters or have a local row you on a sampan boat through the cave, where you’ll emerge into a hidden lake enclosed on all sides by streaked cliffs and their tree-topped peaks.

Next, explore Sung Sot (Amazing) Cave. Leave the boat and spend around one hour exploring the cave. Then, visit Titov Island. Swim on the beach or trek up to Titov peak for panoramic views of Ha Long Bay.

Summit on the sundeck for watching the magnificent sunset over the Wonders of Nature. Enjoy a sunset tea break with fruits, snacks, tea, and wine. Make acquaintance with new friends, share your traveling experience, or simply watch the sunset or just relax.

Finally, disembark for another comfortable limousine ride back to Hanoi via the new express highway. Stop for a short break before being dropped off at your hotel.
