Jewel of the Bay

Jewel of the Bay 2 Days / 1 Night From $120/ per person Destinations: Ha Long Ha Long Bay covers an area of 1,500 square km. With more than a thousand limestone peaks rising up from its crystalline emerald waters, this area is rightly viewed as one of the natural wonders of Vietnam and is one of five World Heritage-listed sites. This two-day itinerary gives us the chance to enjoy the bay from the luxury of our private junk. Here you can relax on the tanning deck, swim in the clear aqua blue waters and enjoy the best cuisine available in the bay. There is also the option of exploring some of the bay’s most secluded lagoons using modern easy-to-maneuver kayaks for some unforgettable scenery only accessible by kayak.

Day 1: Hanoi – Ha Long Bay Depart Hanoi for Ha Long Bay for the approximately three hours drive. En route, we have a short stop at the Sao Do arts and crafts centre run by handicapped children. Upon arrival at Ha Long Bay (approx. midday), we will board our luxury junk boat, the ‘Jewel of the Bay’ for a delicious seafood lunch. After lunch, we have the chance to explore some of the limestone caves dotted around the bay. Then our captain will find a secluded spot for swimming and sun bathing before dinner. Enjoy another seafood feast for dinner, and for the night owls, there is an option of night fishing. Day 2: Ha Long Bay - Hanoi Rising to the lapping waters of the bay, we have time for an early morning dip followed by breakfast.
