Our sundeck is also the place where you join an enlightening cooking class and an enjoyable fruit-carving demonstration. With our excellent service, it takes you only 2 hours for transferring from Hanoi, the transit gives you an unparalleled 7 hours on the bay that is almost double the normal route of other Halong Bay day tours. Moreover, come with us, you will be welcomed and served with Vietnamese hospitality. Our loyal staff will promise to bring your Halong Bay cruise back to its simplest form, where you are more than a customer, but a guest to our gorgeous homeland.

With at least 3.5 hours or more (4 hours, 6,5 hours, 8 hours or 10 hours) cruising time in the Bay, you can have an overview of Halong Bay or Lan Ha Bay. You won’t absolutely be limited to attend in various activities in the Bay even if with the limited time frame. You still can join in a plenty of activities such as exploring Heaven Cave, kayaking or boat rowing in the deep blue sea waters, paddling through Luon Cave by a sampan, swimming in Soi Sim Beach, and much more,…

Hanoi – Lan Ha Bay – Bright Cave – Got Harbor – Hanoi
7:30 - 8:00: Our guides will collect you from your hotel inside Hanoi Old Quarter to start the journey along the smooth Expressway to Got pier in Hai Phong city.
10:00 - 10.30: After arriving at Got pier, spend a short time to relax in our waiting lounge before embarking the Day Cruise. And then, a welcome drink is served while the itinerary for the following 7 hours of cruising time is presented. Day Cruise starts cruising. Go to visit some famous islets of the bay, including Da Chong islet and its 100-year old French lighthouse.
14:30: Bright Cave is the first stop of the day. We will provide with you 2 options to choose from: either sitting on a local-rowed sampan boat through the Bright Cave, a hidden lake enclosed by marbled cliffs and their tree-topped mounts or kayaking through the silent waters to enjoy the quietness of the area with your own hand.
15:30: Return to the Day Cruise to relax on the two sundecks and relish the remarkable sights of the majestic bay. You will have an opportunity to participate in a cooking class and fruit-carving demonstration led by our chef. Afterward, Western-style afternoon tea with accompanying snacks is prepared. Travelers will have time to enjoy swimming in the clean water and quiet area of Lan Ha Bay as the boat cruises back to the pier.
17:30 – 17:45: You will arrive back at Got pier, disembark the boat, and board the luxury bus to return to Hanoi.
