Full Itinerary
Day 1: Hanoi – Halong – Lan Ha Bay (L, D)
Morning
08:30 Viet Vision Travel’s limousine will pick up guests from the hotel in Hanoi. Our driver will take a 10-15 minute break by a station for guests to rest on the way.
11:30 Arrive at Scarlet Pearl Cruise‘s Lounge in Halong International Cruise Port to check-in. Guests will be offered “welcome drink” and listen to instructions before boarding.
12:00 Guests will start boarding.
13:00 A splendid lunch is served at Tahiti Restaurant while the cruise travels across primitive Lan Ha Bay. The bay has hundreds of islands and islets, making it a wonderful background for guests to look at while dining.
Afternoon
15:00 Arrive at Bright Cave by kayaking or rowing boat as the path towards the cave is 70m long of water. On the way, guests will be amazed by sparkling karst arcs through sunlight.
Afterward, guests are invited to enter Ech Lagoon, an extremely serene and emerald spot to kayak and swim. It’ll be a wonderful chance to immerse in one of the most remote parts of Lan Ha Bay. The shape of this lagoon looks like a giant frog resting, hence it explains the name “Ao Ếch” in Vietnamese.
17:00 Return to the cruise to relax and admire the sunset on the sundeck.
17:30 Watching the sunset over Lan Ha Bay is one of the moments that shouldn’t be missed out. During this time, there will be either a Sunset Party in Sky Bar or a cooking class hosted by our Chef (depending on the season).
Evening
17:30-18:30 It is Happy Hour meaning Buy One Get One Free – this promotion is applied on our limited drinks menu. Guests can also choose to watch the sunset by catamaran while sipping fresh cocktails (this is surcharged).
19:00 Fine-dining dinner will be started along with a fun and interactive cultural exchange between all the guests and our Vietnamese host.
Day 2: Ba Trai Dao Beach ( Three Peach Beach) – Viet Hai Village (B, L, D)
Morning
06:30 Begin a new day with a Tai Chi session while welcoming magnificent sunrise. (Guests can also choose to take photos and enjoy the scene if they prefer so.) A light breakfast is served from Scarlet Pearl Cruise.
06:45-07:30 Enjoy the refreshing and peaceful beauty of the Bay.
09:00 Tour around Ba Trai Đao Beach, one of the most gorgeous beaches in Lan Ha Bay.
Then, guests will visit Viet Hai Village on Cat Ba Island and hop on bicycle rides (or electric cars). On this island, guests will have the chance to go through a rainforest tunnel and sightseeing its gorgeous scenery. Meet and greet the locals living their life, and check out their houses and school. A small village of only 80 households nestled in the midst of forests and covered by the high mountain range of Cat Ba National Park, Viet Hai locals practice a self-sufficient lifestyle by farming, fishing, and breeding. (*Please note that a visit to Viet Hai Village might be canceled due to bad weather.)
12:00 Taste a fresh lunch on the luxury catamaran, in which guests will have the chance to go fishing and swimming in the remote areas with the most breathtaking views. This exquisite picnic might be the highlight of the day.
