BEST SELLER Halong Bay Luxury Day Cruise: Buffet, Jacuzzi & Sauna

Our English-speaking tour guide will pick up guests from various hotels in Hanoi's Old Quarter, between 07:45 AM and 08:40 AM. We strive to make pick-ups as timely as possible, but due to morning traffic in the Old Quarter and the number of hotels to collect from, this time is approximate. Please be ready to help expedite the process.

The bus will arrive at Tuan Chau Marina and reach our pier, where our welcoming staff will be waiting for you with a big smile. For guests who have not booked transportation from Hanoi, please be at Tuan Chau International Marina by 11:45 AM.

The cruise departs from Tuan Chau harbor for a joyful journey to discover the beauty of the UNESCO World Heritage site, Ha Long Bay. Along the way, you will pass by the grandeur of the legendary bay with thousands of limestone islands, including Dog Rock, Duck Rock, and especially Thumb Rock – a beautiful limestone islet rising from the sea in the shape of a giant thumb. Enjoy a huge buffet lunch with a variety of dishes, including seafood and Vietnamese food. Vegetarian options do available in the buffet.

We will stop at Bo Hon Island, where our tour guide will take you to Sung Sot Cave (Surprising Cave), the largest and most beautiful cave in Ha Long Bay. After about 200 steps through the forest canopy, the entrance of the cave will appear. A paradise will unfold before you. You will explore the cave for about 45 minutes before returning to the cruise. (For tourists who cannot walk much, you can stay on the cruise and relax on the sundeck.)

The cruise heads to Luon Cave. Here, you can get active with kayaking (about 30 minutes) or enjoy the beautiful scenery at Hang Luon with a rowboat, rowed by the local people of Ha Long Bay. (Note: Kayak or bamboo boat rental at Luon Cave is optional and costs 80,000 VND per person.)

We will stop at Titop Island. On this small island, you can climb halfway up the mountain to enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view of Ha Long Bay. The spectacular sight from above provides an unforgettable experience. Alternatively, you can relax and enjoy swimming at Titop Beach, where the clear, refreshing waters offer the perfect opportunity to cool off.

Enjoy complimentary wine, Vietnamese tea, and fresh fruit as the sunset begins to set, painting the sky in deep reds, purples, and yellows. Relax in Jacuzzi and take in the scenery as we sail back to the harbor.

We will dock at the harbor, board the buses, and travel back to Hanoi via the high-speed highway, with a quick stop halfway before continuing the journey. The tour guide will drop you off at the front door of your chosen hotel in the Old Quarter. Depending on traffic conditions, the drop-off time may take a little longer. On weekends, drop-off times are often delayed due to road closures for the Walking Street.
