Itinerary Overview
Day 1: Hanoi → Lan Ha Bay
Day 2: Halong Bay → Hanoi
DAY 1 - HANOI - LAN HA BAY
Cruise Departure: 12:00 PM
(*) If you book a transfer from Hanoi, transportation will start between 8:00 and 8:30 AM, depending on your pick-up location. The drive to Ha Long usually takes around 2.5 hours.
In case you want to schedule the Ha Long cruise on the same day of landing at Noi Bai airport, the flight landing time should be around 6:00 - 7:00 AM at the latest (and earlier if it's an international flight and you need to go through customs).
The journey begins at the Bhaya Cruise Center within Tuan Chau International Marina, where guests are welcomed aboard The Au Co. After settling into the cabin, enjoy a safety briefing at Halong Restaurant and meet the Cruise Manager and crew while savoring a refreshing welcome drink.
As the vessel cruises through the magnificent seascape of Ha Long Bay, lunch is served against a backdrop of towering limestone karsts and emerald waters. In the afternoon, guests venture to the secluded Ho Ba Ham area, one of the bay’s most tranquil corners. Exploring by kayak, visitors can glide through calm waters, discover hidden lagoons, and admire the untouched beauty of this remarkable natural setting.
Returning to the cruise, there is time to relax and freshen up before the evening activities begin. As the sun sets over the bay, Happy Hour offers the perfect opportunity to enjoy handcrafted drinks while taking in the spectacular scenery. Later, guests are invited to join the Master Chef “Halong Bay Edition” competition, learning the techniques behind authentic Vietnamese cuisine and competing for exciting prizes.
Dinner is served in the restaurant as the cruise settles into its overnight anchorage. The evening continues with a Vietnamese rice wine tasting session, introducing guests to regional varieties and local traditions. For those wishing to extend the experience, squid fishing beneath the quiet night sky provides a memorable glimpse into a favorite local pastime.
DAY 2 - HALONG BAY - HANOI
Cruise Disembarkation: 10:00 AM
Day two begins at first light with a revitalising Tai Chi session on the sundeck, as sunrise casts its golden glow across the limestone seascape of Ha Long Bay. After breakfast, guests may choose between two distinctive experiences: exploring Tien Ong Cave, renowned for its archaeological significance and impressive natural formations, or visiting the Cua Van Floating Culture Center by kayak or traditional rowing boat, offering an authentic glimpse into the heritage and daily life of one of Ha Long Bay’s most iconic floating communities.
Returning on board, there is time to gather belongings and enjoy a final breakfast as the cruise makes its way back. Check-out procedures are completed at reception before disembarkation at Tuan Chau International Marina, marking a graceful close to the journey, a farewell shaped by calm moments and lasting impressions. Hẹn gặp lại.
(*) If you book a return transfer to Hanoi or Noi Bai Airport, you will arrive in central Hanoi/ the airport at around 1:30 - 2:30 PM (depending on traffic conditions and the type of transport). Please take these times into consideration when booking your onward flight, train, or bus to your next destination.
