ITINERARY
Day 1

HALONG TOUR 1 DAY ON CATAMARAN CRUISE

07.45 – 08.30: (HOTEL PICK UP) Our English-speaking tour guide will pick up guests from various hotels in Hanoi Old Quarter, ranging from 7:45 – 8:30. We try to make the pick-ups as timely as possible but with morning traffic in the Old Quarter and many hotels to collect from, this time is approximate.
10.00 – 10.15: (SHORT LAVATORY BREAK) Quick stop halfway to stretch your legs, use the facilities, or grab a quick snack in case you missed breakfast (our driver appreciates a coffee break as well!) before we get back on the road and finish the drive.
11.30 – 11.45: (BOARDING THE CRUISE) The bus will arrive at Tuan Chau marina and reach our pier, where our welcoming staff will be waiting for your arrival with a big smile. A complimentary welcome drink will be served, and a quick briefing as we set off into the bay.
12.00 – 13.00: (LUNCH ON BOARD) Our award-winning chef will be serving up amaz-ing delights for guests to indulge. Paired beautifully with lavish cocktails, fine wines, and beers. The bar will be open for the entirety of the service.
* Water is served throughout the journey, any other drinks not mentioned
14.00 – 15.00: (KAYAKING OR SITTING ON BAMBOO BOAT TO VISIT BRIGHT – DARK CAVE) We will spend 1-hour round trip paddling through a little grotto and into our private lagoon, surrounded by rock walls in all direc-tions. It’s a peaceful little corner of Halong Bay all to ourselves. The tour guide will tell the folklore of Halong Bay before paddling back to the boat.
15.15 – 15.45: (FROG POND, SWIMMING – LAN HA BAY) Enjoy in the trampoline, water slide , go for a swim, or just stay on the boat and relax in Lan Ha Bay. You will have 1hour to enjoy the sand between your toes. So, relax and take a few moments to reflect on the absolute beauty of this natural wonder of the world.
16:00: (COOKING DEMONSTRATION) Learn the history of a traditional Vietnamese dish that is the most famous. From the fresh ingredients to the preparation method, and then have a try at making them yourselves. You’ll be able to make Vietnamese summer rolls in your own kitchen after this informative and fun course. Excite all your friends and family at home with your new skills!
16.30: (SUNSET CEREMONY – TEA, CAKES) Complimentary Vietnamese teas, fresh fruit, and little cakes to keep you satisfied until you return to Hanoi. While the sunset starts to drop and the sky fills with deep red, purple, and yellow, enjoy the return sail back.
17:30: (DISEMBARK- LIMOUSINE) We dock at the harbor, get back onto the Limousine, and go on the highway. A quick stop halfway, and back to Hanoi.
20.00 – 20.30: (HOTEL DROP) Thank you for giving The Halong Catamaran the chance to deliver you a once of a lifetime experience. The tour guide will deliver you to the front door of the hotel, of your choice, in the Old Quarter.
