Day 1: Hanoi – Lan Ha Bay – Bioluminescent Night Kayak (L, D)

07:00: Pickup from your hotel in Hanoi's Old Quarter (if bus service is booked with us),  then depart for Cat Ba Island. We’ll make a few short stops along the way for rest. Upon  arrival in Hai Phong City, we’ll take a ferry to Cat Ba Island and continue by road to Ben  Beo Pier.

11:15: Arrive at Ben Beo Pier, where your tour guide will provide entrance tickets for Lan  Ha Bay and Ha Long Bay (included in the tour price). 

11:20: Board the boat and begin your cruise through the stunning Lan Ha Bay. As we set  sail, you'll be amazed by the spectacular limestone formations rising from the emerald  waters. We’ll pass Cai Beo Fishing Village - one of the oldest and most traditional floating  villages in northern Vietnam - and continue sailing among thousands of uniquely shaped  karst towers (resembling chopsticks, seals, and more). 

12:00: Enjoy a freshly prepared Vietnamese lunch onboard, lovingly cooked by our local  crew (vegetarian options available). Dine while taking in the breathtaking scenery of  Halong Bay. 

14:30: Explore the pristine lagoon area of Lan Ha Bay by kayak. Paddle through the Dark  and Bright Caves, natural tunnels, and majestic archways. This area is both stunning and  ecologically protected. With luck, you may even spot the rare Cat Ba Langur (golden headed monkey). 

15:30: The boat continues southward through the untouched parts of Ha Long Bay.

16:30: Stop at Ba Trai Dao Beach for swimming and jumping from the boat. This beach is  remote, quiet, and less touristy - ideal for discovering temple beaches, hidden lagoons, and  scenic rock arches. 

17:30: Visit a local floating fish farm to learn how fishermen live and work on the water.  Join a hands-on cooking class onboard, where you'll learn to prepare traditional  Vietnamese dishes. Dinner will be served on the boat. 

19:30: As the sun sets, experience the enchantment of bioluminescent plankton. Join our  guide for a special kayaking session in areas glowing with natural light. You may also  swim under the stars and watch your silhouette sparkle in the dark water.

20:00: Arrive at Viet Hai Village, located around 10 kilometers from Cat Ba Town. Nestled  in the heart of the jungle, this charming village is surrounded by lush forest, towering  mountains, and serene natural beauty. 

Day 2: Discover Viet Hai Village – Monkey Island or Navy Peak (B, L) 

06:30: Enjoy a hearty breakfast at our restaurant. 

07:30: Hop on a bicycle and cycle around Viet Hai Village. Take in the fresh mountain air,  scenic views, and even try a fun fish massage in the natural stream. 

08:30: Check out of your room. We’ll return to Viet Hai Pier and set sail once more toward  Monkey Island. 

IF MONKEY ISLAND IS CLOSED BY LOCAL AUTHORITIES, WE WILL SWITCH TO ANOTHER AREA FOR SWIMMING/HIKING ON NAVY PEAK.

09:30: Arrive at Monkey Island. Relax and swim on the sandy beach, interact with playful  monkeys, or take a short trek up to the island’s viewpoint for a panoramic view of Lan Ha  Bay. 

10:30: Lunch is served onboard as we cruise back toward the harbor.
