Explore the highlights of Ha Long Bay on a scenic cruise from Hanoi. Leave the bustling city streets behind for the day and head out into nature with your local guide. Walk through natural caves, see towering cliffs rising above the water, discover vast beaches, and eat a delicious lunch on board.

Get picked up in Hanoi bright and early and drive over to Ha Long City. Board your boat at Ha Long wharf, with enough time to snap some pictures of your striking surroundings. Receive a short briefing, then navigate through calm waters while sipping on a refreshing welcome drink.

Marvel at the stone mountains jutting out around you, the stunning green-watered bays surrounding you, and the white-sand beaches tucked away in them. Enjoy your lunch on board before reaching Sung Sot Cave. Step into its underground world to contemplate the massive stalactites and stalagmites.

Head back to your boat for some time to relax in the sun or in the shade. Grab a paddle and head out to explore Luon Cave by kayak. Embark on a short hike or simply sit back on the beach. Begin your journey back to the main pier as the sunset's bright orange hues cover the sky.

On the way back, tuck into some wine, cakes, fruits, and tasty snacks. Board your shuttle to drive back to your drop-off location in Hanoi.
