About
“I spent quite some time searching for a relaxing cruise in a clean ship with good value for money – this definitely exceeded all my expectations.” — Shawn, Singapore
Join us as we sail 165km from Hanoi in the northern province of Quang Ninh. During this essential Vietnam trip, we’ll discover the spectacular landscapes of Halong Bay. As we float through the emerald and turquoise waters of Halong and Lan Ha Bay, we’ll thousands of towering limestone islands each with their own unique features.
DAY 1: Hanoi – Halong Bay – Lan Ha Bay
This Halong Bay Cruise begins with pickup from your hotel. After the long drive to the pier, we’ll ad welcome you aboard with refreshments. From here, you can relax and enjoy a special seafood lunch as we sail into Lan Ha Bay – part of the harbor declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Vietnamese legend tells us of “Ha Long,” the “descending dragon” who protected the land and scattered jewels that turned into the unusual karst formations. Marvel at these natural treasures as we kayak and swim in the blue-green waters.
As our first day ends, we get back on the boat for a sunset party, and relish in the sumptuous dinner prepared for us at the restaurant. At night, you may stay in to watch a movie, order spa service, enjoy the bar, go squid fishing or simply relax on the rooftop deck under the cover of a star-filled sky.
Alternatively, you can lounge in your private bathtub or rest on your private sea view balcony (and perhaps wind down with a bottle of wine) before sleeping in your luxury air-conditioned cabin.
DAY 2: Halong Bay – Dark & Bright Cave – Hanoi
Our second day starts with an energising tai chi session, followed by a light breakfast of pastries with tea, coffee, or juice. We will continue to explore Halong Bay with local rowing boats, and visit Dark & Bright Cave.
Lunch will be preceded by a fun cooking class on how to make Vietnamese spring rolls. Afterwards, we bid goodbye and cảm ơn (thank you) to our hospitable and friendly staff. As we dine, our ship will draw closer to the mainland.
We head back to the wharf at noon, and you will be comfortably brought back to your hotel in the Hanoi Old Quarter, blissed out after our beautiful Halong Bay Sapphire Cruise expedition.
