Ha Long & Lan Ha Bay Excursion
After pickup at 7:45 am at your hotel in central Cat Ba or at 190-1/4 Street, we will board a minibus to the south of the island.
Upon arrival at the port, we will embark at 8 am for an excursion in Lan Ha Bay. The cruise will pass alongside the floating fishing village of Beo, Monkey Island, and Buddha Island.
From Lan Ha Bay, we will proceed to Ha Long Bay, observing the Ha Long city skyline. We will anchor at Cam Lagoon for a Vietnamese lunch on board. After lunch, we will rest briefly before the kayak tour to visit Monkey Cave, Dark Cave, Bright Cave, and Bat Cave.
We will then snorkel in the natural area of Ba Trai Dao and return to the boat to watch the sunset from the upper deck.
We will arrive back at the starting point between 5 pm and 5:30 pm.
Excursion + Night Plankton
This upgraded experience includes a night kayak tour to see luminescent plankton. After sunset, we will have a traditional fish and seafood dinner in a restaurant.
Post-dinner, we will paddle in the lagoon to learn about bioluminescence in plankton. This hour-long tour offers a chance to admire the nocturnal landscape before returning to the mainland and taking you back to the hotel approximately 14 hours later.
