Ha Long & Lan Ha Bay Excursion
Pickup will be at 7:45 am from your hotel in the center of Cat Ba or at 190-1/4 Street. A minibus will transport us to the south of the Vietnamese island.
At the port, we will board a boat at 8 am for an excursion in Lan Ha Bay. The cruise will include views of the floating fishing village of Beo, Monkey Island, and Buddha Island.
We will then proceed to Ha Long Bay, observing the Ha Long city skyline before heading to Cam Lagoon for a Vietnamese lunch on board. After lunch, we will have a short break followed by a kayak tour to Monkey Cave, Dark Cave, Bright Cave, and Bat Cave.
Following the kayaking, we will 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
Upgrade your experience by booking a tour that includes a night tour by kayak to see luminescent plankton. After sunset, we will go to a restaurant for a traditional dinner of fish and seafood.
Post-dinner, we will embark on a kayak for an hour-long tour to learn about bioluminescence in the plankton and appreciate the nocturnal landscape.
Finally, we will return to the mainland and take you back to the hotel 14 hours later.
