Day 2- Halong Bay Day Trip
Embark on a captivating day cruise through the awe-inspiring Halong Bay! Your journey begins at 8:00
am with a pick-up from your Hanoi hotel. Settle into a comfortable bus and enjoy a scenic ride along the
new highway towards Tuan Chau Island. Relax and take in the passing Vietnamese landscape.
Upon arrival at Tuan Chau Harbor by noon, you'll be warmly welcomed aboard your cruise ship. After a
quick safety briefing, set sail and get ready to be mesmerized by the bay's iconic beauty. Your
experienced crew will navigate you through a captivating five-hour journey. Marvel at the dramatic
limestone formations jutting from the emerald water, aptly named by locals for their resemblance to
shapes like "Cock Fighting" and "Thumb."
As you cruise, indulge in a delicious Vietnamese lunch onboard, savoring local flavors amidst the
stunning scenery. In the afternoon, reach the captivating Bo Hon archipelago. Explore the wonders of
Surprising Cave, filled with otherworldly stalagmites and stalactites resembling marine life.
Next, choose your adventure! Glide through the serene Luon Cave by kayak or traditional bamboo boat,
discovering its hidden lagoon. Alternatively, set foot on the pristine Titop Island, its white sand beach
contrasting beautifully with the towering limestone cliffs behind it. Hike to the summit of Titov Peak and
be rewarded with panoramic vistas of this breathtaking bay.
By 4:30 pm, return to your cruise and relax as you journey back towards Tuan Chau Harbor. Soak up the
sun on the upper deck, unwind to onboard music, and share experiences with your fellow travelers
amidst this iconic landscape.
Disembark around 6:00 pm and begin your return journey to Hanoi along the new highway. Arrive back
in the city in the evening for a restful overnight stay, carrying unforgettable memories of Halong Bay's
magic.
