Full description

Experience the stunning landscapes of Ha Long Bay aboard a 4-star junk boat with an onboard cabin on a 2-day 1-night cruise from Hanoi. Learn how to make spring rolls and fish for squid at night. Visit some of the limestone karst islands and marvel at the rock formations of the caves.  

Day 1: Hanoi – Halong – Overnight on-board 

From 8 to 845 AM, get picked up from your hotel and depart to Ha Long Bay. The bus journey will take around 2.5 hours. Stop en route around 30 minutes at a rest stop. Embark aboard at Tuan Chau International Marina and get a refreshing welcome drink as you check into your cabin.

Enjoy an onboard cabin with an ensuite bathroom, air conditioning, big windows, and a sea-facing balcony so that you can view Ha Long Bay even from your bedroom. Get access to a hair dryer, wooden hanger, slippers, and complimentary water bottles.

Then, cruise amongst the limestone rocks of Ha Long Bay and feast on fresh local seafood. Sail to islets such as "Dog Head" and "Swan" and pass the floating village of Ba Hang.

Next, explore Luon Cave by a bamboo boat and get some time to swim at Ti Top Island. Watch the sunset from the sun deck of the boat before dropping anchor for the night. Go on a night squid fishing adventure after dinner, or just relax in the bar.

Day 2: Halong - Hanoi

Wake to stunning views of Ha Long Bay and take a guided tour of the stalactites and stalagmites of Surprise Cave. Pass the islands of "Fighting Cock," "Incense Burner" and "Stone Dogs" on the way back to the harbor.

Watch a demonstration on how to make spring rolls and enjoy lunch before your arrival. Board the bus for the return journey to Hanoi, with an estimated hotel drop-off at around 3:30 PM.

It is a budget cruise, so expect accordingly. Dan, Hui, Driver and other crew members ensure we have a super-good time. A proper schedule of everything, with good time by yourself. The boat is clean, cabins are spic and span, food is good and sumptuous, and the bus ride is comfortable. It has been planned same as how 500-odd other cruises function so expect nothing different but well worth the money you are spending. The cabins do not have exclusive balcony but the passage towards your cabin faces the sea, and the cabin has big windows with sea-view. Overall - recommended. Value for money.

Compared to some of the other cruises on Booking.com, this was definitely better value for money. We also learnt most tours do the exact same route and activities anyway, so wouldn’t say it’s worth splashing out a lot of money - and this tour is very reasonable! Tour includes a stop at oyster farm, trip to a cave, trip to one of the islands, kayaking and spring roll making. It’s certainly very packed in on the 2 day tour, so don’t expect to have too much relaxation time! Tour guide was very efficient and knowledgeable. All the food is included and they can cater for dietary requirements. Would recommend!
