If the karst landscapes of Guilin in China, El Nido in the Philippines and Krabi in Thailand call out to you, then&nbsp;Hal Long Bay is&nbsp;a must when travelling through&nbsp;Hanoi. There aren&rsquo;t many stops in Northern Vietnam more picturesque than this tranquil sea of green.&nbsp;Distinctive cliffs jut above the turquoise waters of this place, also known&nbsp;as the Gulf of Tonkin. Almost every magical rock formation is&nbsp;ripe for exploration, and easily reached by boat. With over 3,000 unique island-sculptures to admire, you&rsquo;re set for a fantastic day cruising through them during this return Ha Long Bay day tour from Hanoi...

&lsquo;&lsquo;The most amazing region home to limestone cliffs that tower above the crystal-clear waters.&rsquo;&rsquo; &ndash; <a href="http://www.wheregoesrose.com/2018/06/24/ha-long-bay-vietnam-photo-guide/">Where Goes Rose?</a>

Following an early morning pick-up, we&rsquo;ll leave the hazy rat race of scooters and pagodas behind as we depart Hanoi&rsquo;s Old Quarter and travel towards Ha Long Bay. At Tuan Chau Harbour, we&rsquo;ll be introduced to our sweet ride for the day: an open-topped cruise ship ready to set sail around the world-famous area. You&rsquo;ll dine on a generous buffet of fresh fish, meat and veggies from the surrounding nature-rich region as the awe-inspiring views begin to drift by the cabin windows.

Before the day is over, we&rsquo;ll take an excursion through Thien Cung Grotto and Dau Go Cave, two of the most spectacular caves in the Bay. Admire stalactites and stalagmites formed millions of years ago as your knowledgeable guide fills you in on the history. You&rsquo;ll also have the chance to upgrade and enjoy a traditional bamboo boat ride or kayak around a local fishing village where you&rsquo;ll observe and learn about the lives of the locals. You&rsquo;ll head back to Hanoi full of local knowledge, first-hand experiences and enough photos to blow up any Instagram feed!

&lsquo;&lsquo;Ha Long Bay is, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful places in Vietnam.&rsquo;&rsquo; &ndash; <a href="https://www.adventurouskate.com/halong-bay-the-ultimate-party-cruise/">Adventurous Kate</a>
