Route Map
DAY 1 - HANOI - HALONG BAY
Cruise Departure: 12:00 PM
(*) If you book a transfer from Hanoi, transportation will start between 8:30 and 9:00 AM, depending on your pick-up location. The drive to Halong usually takes around 2.5 hours.
In case you want to schedule the Halong cruise on the same day of landing at Noi Bai airport, the flight landing time should be around 6:00 - 7:00 AM at the latest (and earlier if it's an international flight and you need to go through customs).
The cruise departs at midday, beginning the journey across Ha Long Bay and heading toward the Tung Sau area.
Upon reaching Tung Sau, an isolated area known for pearl farming and surrounded by limestone mountains rising from calm waters, time is scheduled for kayaking in the private Tung Sau area. The quiet setting and still water create an easy pace for exploring the bay at water level.
Back on board later in the afternoon, guests take part in the MasterChef “Ha Long Bay Edition” activity, preparing authentic Vietnamese dishes and observing a fruit-carving demonstration by the onboard chefs, while the natural scenery of Ha Long Bay transitions into sunset.
As evening approaches, the itinerary continues with squid fishing on board. This casual nighttime activity invites guests to try local fishing techniques together before the day concludes and the cruise settles into the calm of the bay.
DAY 2 - HALONG BAY
The day continues with a series of visits around Ha Long Bay, beginning with Luon Cave. Accessed by traditional rowing boats, the water cave reveals layered karst formations and limestone walls that unfold gradually as the boat glides through its calm interior.
The itinerary then proceeds to Titov Island. Time is allocated for exploring the island at a relaxed pace, whether by spending time along the sandy beach or hiking up to the summit, where open views stretch across the bay and its surrounding limestone formations.
Following the visit to Titov Island, the cruise moves on to Me Cung Cave, located on Lom Bo Island, approximately 25 meters above sea level and a short distance southwest of Titov. The cave features a series of winding chambers with ancient stalactites, while its entrance opens out to elevated views over the emerald waters of Ha Long Bay.
After returning on board, guests are invited to unwind with Bhaya’s complimentary herbal foot bath. Prepared using medicinal plants from Vietnam’s Northwest region and infused with mineral salts, activated carbon, and natural herbs such as ginger, mint, and cinnamon, this traditional treatment helps ease muscle fatigue and supports a restful end to the day.
DAY 3 - HALONG BAY - HANOI
Cruise Disembarkation: 10:00 AM
(*) If you book a return transfer to Hanoi or Noi Bai Airport, you will arrive in central Hanoi/ the airport at around 1:30 - 2:30 PM (depending on traffic conditions and the type of transport). Please take these times into consideration when booking your onward flight, train, or bus to your next destination.
The morning begins quietly in the Trinh Nu area, one of the more secluded parts of Ha Long Bay. As daylight spreads across the water, the surrounding limestone formations and calm, crystal-clear sea create a gentle setting for the final hours of the journey.
Early in the morning, guests are invited to join a Tai Chi session on the sundeck. Practiced as the sun rises over the UNESCO World Heritage landscape, the session offers a slow, meditative start to the day before the cruise continues its route.
Later in the morning, time is scheduled in the Trinh Nu area, which includes Trinh Nu Cave and a pristine beach tucked behind it. Guests may kayak along the jade-colored waters surrounding the beach or spend time relaxing on the sand, enjoying the quieter atmosphere and natural surroundings.
At 10:00 AM, the cruise concludes with check-out and disembarkation, bringing the journey to a close as the vessel returns to shore.
