All about the trip
Halong Bay is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and a popular travel destination, located in Quang Ninh province, Vietnam. Halong Bay has an area of around 1,553 km2, including 1,960–2,000 islets, most of which are limestone. Visitors have constantly marveled at Halong Bay's natural beauty. The tiny islands are dotted with innumerable beaches and caves created by the wind and the waves that make an excellent backdrop for swimming or just lazing about on the boat deck.
The tour will begin with our guide picking you up from your hotel. From there you will arrive at the Tuan Chau port in Halong city. You will board the boat and start discovering the legendary bay! A delicious seafood lunch will be served while cruising to the most beautiful areas of Halong Bay. This is a great chance to enjoy the stunning scenery with amazing rock formations such as fighting cocks, incense burners, and many other islets that look like ducks, dogs, and a thumb. The boat will pass by Hoa Cuong fishing village and stop at Ba Hang fishing village where you can do kayaking by your own alongside limestone cliffs, through water caves, around the fishing village to discover the daily life of the fishermen living here. Bamboo boats are available for those who cannot do kayaking. The last destination of the trip is one of the most
