DAY 1: HANOI - LAN HA BAY

Cruise Departs: 12:00 PM

(*) If you book a transfer from Hanoi, transportation will start between 8:00 and 8:30 AM, depending on your pick-up location. The drive to Ha Long usually takes around 2.5 hours.

In case you want to schedule the Ha Long 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).

Begin your journey with a curated lunch as the limestone karsts begin their silent procession past your window. 

In the afternoon, we slip away to the secluded Ba Ham Lake right in the border of both Halong & Lan Ha Bay. Tucked within Dau Be Island, this hidden gem reveals itself through enchanting tunnels and crystal-clear waters framed by wild orchids. Whether you choose to paddle a kayak or simply breathe in the stillness, it is a true encounter with the bay’s untouched spirit.

Back on board, the afternoon is yours to reclaim.

Relieve by a complimentary wellness session 

Indulge in a complimentary 10-minute herbal foot ritual & 30-minute wellness treatment, where the soothing touch of our skilled therapists melts away tension against the serene backdrop of Ha Long Bay. 

Swim/Relax at heated pool

Relax in the all-season swimming pool onboard and immerse yourself in the mesmerizing 360-degree views of the bay - a perfect way to unwind and connect with the surrounding natural beauty.

As the sky softens into sunset, enjoy gourmet canapés and drinks in “Happy Hour” promotion. After a lavish dinner, conclude your evening with a guided “Sleep Well” meditation under the starlit sky.

03

DAY 2: HALONG BAY - HANOI

Cruise Disembarkation: 10:00 AM

Greet the dawn with a mindful walking meditation within the cathedral-like silence of Tien Ong Cave. This archaeological treasure, adorned with stunning stalactites, offers a profound space for reflection. 

After a nourishing breakfast, visit the iconic Cua Van Floating Village. Recently named one of the world’s most beautiful coastal towns, this village invites you to glide through its emerald heart by kayak or traditional rowing boat. 

Return to Bhaya Soul to freshen up before we head back to Hanoi, carrying the serene energy of the bay home with you.

(*) 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.

A Peaceful and Memorable April Getaway

We joined the Bhaya Soul cruise in April and had a truly wonderful experience. The weather was pleasant and perfect for enjoying the beautiful scenery of Ha Long Bay and Lan Ha Bay. The cruise was elegant and comfortable, the food was delicious, and the activities were very well organized throughout the journey. We especially loved relaxing on the sundeck and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere of the bay. The crew were warm, attentive, and professional, always making us feel welcomed and well taken care of. A relaxing and unforgettable trip that we would highly recommend!

A perfect 2-day, 1-night getaway filled with love at Bhaya Soul.
My 2-day, 1-night trip on the Bhaya Soul cruise was truly fun and memorable. It was also a special day, as I attended my cousin's wedding right on the ship. Amidst the vast sea and sky, the wedding was both elegant and warm. Everything was meticulously prepared, from the venue and food to the service. A special thank you to Mr. Phan Hai – our incredibly enthusiastic and attentive host. He was always quick to assist and paid attention to every little detail, making my family feel very well taken care of. A truly memorable trip! ❤️

Best of the best Halong Bay cruise
What a superb cruise! Everything about this cruise was top notch - the food, musicians at dinner, massages, kayaking, the pool and poolside service and drinks. Our personal host was Tom who was outstanding. He was energetic, positive and helped out with every little thing we needed - or asked about. Highly recommend!

Top romantic Cruise
Tom was incredible. By far the best tour guide/ host so far we’ve had in Vietnam. He was extremely fun and funny which made our time much enjoyable. We were celebrating our anniversary and they upgraded our room, decorated it and at dinner they played a nice song and brought my wife some beautiful red roses. We will definitely come back; hopefully Tom is there with us.

Ha Long Bay Cruise - dream cruise to calm the heart
A cruise in Ha Long bay has been on our bucket list and choosing the Bhaya Soul fulfilled all those dreams in two soulful nights. Not only the food which was locally sourced, cooked to perfection and presented artfully but the staff who were friendly & genuine. Excursions were authentic and sympathetic to people who live there but allowed us to see the natural Vietnamese people and beauty. We will take this place home with us in our heart.

Bucket list experience on Halong Bay
We travelled Halong Bay for 3d/2n on Bhaya Soul. Provided activities included kayaking, touring/cycling Cat Ba island, squid fishing, morning ‘quiet walk’ through a large cave area and visiting a local fish farm. Still there was time to enjoy the bar area, pool, and fabulous local cuisine. The staff attention to detail is fabulous - thank you Tim other, Tommy and Emma. Highly recommend this experience.

Cruise with HERO!
The best cruise of my life. Absolutely perfect and authentic no big modern boat rather colonial style and that is what we are looking for. Thank you a thousand times to Mr. Hero who can be called SUPER HERO, always attentive and super friendly. I recommend more than a thousand times. A plus for squid fishing.
