- 1Halong Bay
- 2Sung Sot Cave
- 3Cua Van Fishing Village
- 4Lom Bo Islet
- 5Tung Gau Area
- 6Luon Cave
- Morning:
Be picked up at you hotel in Hanoi for a three-hour drive to Halong Bay (transfer not included in cabin price). The long trip is much more exciting than you expected thanks to rustic scene of Vietnam with stretching paddy fields and ancient villages from a far. Arrive at Tuan Chau Marina by noon then get on Bhaya Classic.
- Afternoon:
Let the vacation begin with a lunch as the boat cruises towards South East Halong Bay, passing by Chicken Rock, Finger Islet, and Frog Islet. The cruise stops at Tung Sau Area surrounded by rocky mountains for kayaking.
- Evening:
Dinner will be served around 7:30pm by our talented chef. Spend your evening with a wide array entertaining activities such as board games, movie night or squish fishing (weather allows).
- Morning:
Get up early for Tachi morning class on the Sundeck and have a light breakfast to start an exciting day. Transfer to a wooden day boat. You will get on the rowing boat to visit Luon Cave - an underwater cave with a stunning view of a lagoon. Then, the day boat proceeds to Cua Van Floating Fishing Village - one of the most ancient villages on Halong bay. You can choose to kayak or sit on the sampan boat rowed by a local to sightsee and know about the daily life of locals.
- Evening:
Enjoy sumptuous set-menu dinner on-board. After that, the whole night is for you to relax on your own way with the dedicated services of the crew members.
- Morning:
The Taichi morning class is probably the most interesting activity of the second morning on the bay. Visit Sung Sot Cave - the biggest cave in Halong Bay with thousands-year-old stalactites and stalagmites. Back to the vessel to prepare for check-out. Brunch will be served at 9:30am while the crusie slowly sails toward Tuan Chau Pier. Arrive in Tuan Chau marina at around 10:30 and get on bus back to Hanoi. Tour ends.

Informative trip. Well looked after and welcomed by the crew. Vuong created cocktails and ran the atmosphere so we were relaxed. If given the chance I would consider this boat again. Well done.
