Halong Bay is a UNESCO World Heritage site -- and you'll be reminded of this several times throughout your tour. UNESCO has picked out 830 World Heritage sites around the world, chosen for their cultural and historical importance, and also for their geological uniqueness. Halong Bay offers a little of all three.
It's not the cliffs themselves that make Halong Bay unique, but rather their sheer number. A huge bay, dotted with nearly 2,000 mostly uninhabited limestone cliffs, the breathtaking scenery is very similar to that of the Andaman coast of Thailand, Vang Vieng in Laos and Guilin in China.
Experience the majesty of Halong Bay on a traditional junk cruise. Admire the spectacular scenery, explore islets in the bay, and participate in activities such as kayaking and swimming. Enjoy a Vietnamese cooking class on board.
A wonderful and memorable Halong experience. The staff at the office and the tour guide are very enthusiastic. The local food is delicious and Halong Bay is beautiful. Highly recommend this tour!
