Description

Day 1: Hanoi - Halong - Lan Ha 08:00: Pickup in Hanoi Begin your journey with a comfortable limousine transfer from Hanoi’s Old Quarter (For guest book transfer service).

A welcome drink and a warm towel for refreshing awaits. 12:30: Lunch As the ship sails deeper into Halong Bay, limestone cliffs rise from emerald waters in near silence, far from the busy routes of Ha Long, making your journey both intimate and extraordinary. Enjoy a gourmet lunch. 15:00: Dark & Bright Cave Explore the cave by kayak or bamboo boat. The scenery blends the hues of the sea, sky, and trees, leaving visitors mesmerized as if they have stumbled upon a mythical paradise. 17:00: Leisure time Cool off in the seasonal swimming pool, sip a cocktail at the pool bar, or relax on the panoramic sundeck as the sun begins to set. The bay glows gold as the sun lowers.
