At 8 am, you will be picked up at your hotel in Hanoi for the 3.5-hour drive east of the capital to reach Halong City, the gateway to Halong Bay. Along the way, you will see relaxing views of the countryside and the ubiquitous farmers tending their rice paddy fields.
In Halong, you will get on board a traditional junk and set sail around this gorgeous bay, declared a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1994. The cruise will let you have a close look at many of the magnificent rock formations and isles of various shapes and sizes. You continue enjoying the spectacular natural scenery while savoring a delicious seafood lunch on board.
You will visit one of the many beautiful grottoes, Dong Thien Cung (Heavenly Palace Grotto), which is located on a distant island in the bay. As the name suggests, the cave is beautified with thousands of stalactites and stalagmites. Colorful lights transform the scenic place into a fairy-tale palace. You can also explore Dau Go Cave, which is known for the history of Vietnam’s fight against Mongolian invasion in the 13th century. Thien Cung and Dau Go are remnants of the same old cave system. They both survive in the northern part of Dau Go island at between 20m and 50m above sea level.
Then you will resume cruising to the southern part of Halong Bay, where you can see many strange-shaped islands, pay a visit to the colorful floating village of local fishermen, as well as do kayaking to explore distant parts of the bay.
Afterwards, you will be sailing back to Halong wharf, where a private car that will take you to Hanoi is waiting. You will arrive at your hotel around 8 pm.
No matter how many times you have visited Vietnam, exploring the capital city of Hanoi is something you will always enjoy doing. Joining our half-day tour gives you an opportunity to learn more about the country's history and culture, while admiring the beautiful landmarks and monuments.
At 8:30am, our tour guide will pick you up at your hotel and take you to Ba Dinh Square, where President Ho Chi Minh read the Independence Declaration of Vietnam on the 2nd of September, 1945. The square is a shrine to Ho Chi Minh, and here you can go and visit the national hero's residence (a simple house on stilts), as well as the museum and mausoleum dedicated to him. The Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum and Museum are remaining examples of Soviet-era architecture in Ba Dinh Square. The popular One Pillar Pagoda, also found in the square, attracts visitors who admire the colorful lotus pond surrounding it.
Your next stop is the Temple of Literature, the site of the first university in Vietnam. The temple was originally built to honor Confucius, and today the place celebrates the doctorates and high-rank scholars of Vietnam.
You will have lunch at a local restaurant for a taste of authentic Hanoi dishes.
In the afternoon you can choose to visit one of the city's museums: Hoa Lo Prison, which was once known as the “Hanoi Hilton”; the Museum of History; or Ethnology Museum. Then you go to Hoan Kiem Lake and Ngoc Son Temple to admire these symbolic images of the city. The lake is considered the center of Hanoi, not only physically but also symbolically. It's a popular gathering place for city residents.
Then you join the 1-hour cyclo tour through the Old Quarter, which is also known as the "36 Streets". This busy area of narrow streets is home to literally thousands of small businesses and shopkeepers. This area is also a stunning spot to discover with plenty of photo opportunities.
Finally, you will go back to your hotel when the tour ends around 4pm.
The logistics were very well organised and very smooth; everything worked perfectly. We will happily use the travel company again. You provided an excellent service, and our guide was so helpful and responsive to our questions and we have already recommended you to our friends.

We can't speak highly enough of the care we received from this company. Cheapest vacation ever!

The accommodation was just as advertised, the boat was very well presented, clean and excellent facilities. Very pleased with the room. I woke up on the second morning to find they had been up all night and replaced the carpets in some of the public areas!!?
The dining area was a lovely place to sit and eat, the food was fabulous, and lots of it too.
You kind of expect good service, but the staff on board were exceptional and such good fun too, singing and dancing behind the bar 🙂 Tequila (his name!) went out of his way to make sure everything was alright.
I would definitely recommend this trip and also for 2 days. The second day is full of things to do and you're also away from the really busy tourist bits that can only sail so far for one night onboard. I will book again when I return, its fabulous.
Don't miss this opportunity to taste some of the most delicious street food of Hanoi. Travel through the Old Quarter of the Vietnamese capital, also known as '36 Old Streets', that is known for the variety of its street food. We will pick you up at 6:00 in the evening and drive you to this bustling foodie paradise.

Try out a variety of Vietnamese street food such as dried beef salad, banh cuon, pho, banh mi, bun cha, spring rolls, bia hoi and shrimp cakes. Get the chance to enjoy a variety of drinks, including soft drinks, beer and egg coffee.
Have a nice chat about the culinary history and culture of Vietnam with your female driver while enjoying the food. Choose between a sweet soup or fruit salad before your driver whisks you to your hotel at 10:00 pm.
You will be picked up at your hotel at 8.30 am to enjoy an amazing full-day tour of Bai Dinh Temple and Trang An in Ninh Binh.
You will take time to explore the Buddha Prayer place in Bai Dinh Pagoda, which is the largest pagoda in Vietnam. The pagoda is most famous for 500 La Han statues, biggest bronze Buddha statue in Vietnam standing to a height of 10 meters and weighing more than a hundred tons.
Then, you will enjoy lunch featuring local specialty dishes such as goat meat with elderberry at a local restaurant.
After that, you will resume visiting Trang An Scenic Landscape Complex nearby, which was recently named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here, you will get on a rowing boat (small sampan) to travel along a small river with scenic mountain and picturesque green fields.
During the boat trip, you will be taken to the cave complex of Trang An including: Nau Ruou, Toi Cave, Sang Cave and Ba Giot Cave.
In the late afternoon, we will drive you back to your hotel in Hanoi. Your tour ends at around 18.00.
I had a great time seeing new things and meeting extraordinary people along the way, made extremely easy by Apple, the best CEO ever! The tour was super fun and would definitely do more tours in the future.

We are absolutely in love with Vietnam! Our heartfelt gratitude goes to the tour company for creating an incredible experience for us.
Throughout the planning process, the tour operator was incredibly responsive and accommodating. We worked together on multiple iterations of the itinerary until we
settled on the perfect one. During the trip, when a small hiccup occurred, but our tour operator swiftly responded and made necessary adjustments to ensure our journey
remained seamless. His clarity regarding the inclusions and his expertise in selecting fantastic hotels and guides truly enhanced our experience.
A special mention goes to our outstanding guide in Sapa. We highly recommend this as he provided exceptional insights
and even hosts homestays. Our time in Hanoi, Sapa, Hoi An, Ho Chi Minh, and Halong Bay was nothing short of amazing!
We were fortunate to learn so much about Vietnam and its incredible people. The country and its rich culture left a lasting impression on us.
Once again, thank you to tour company Travel for making this journey truly unforgettable.
