The UNESCO World Heritage Site of Halong Bay is a must-see stunning landscape of dramatic limestone karsts, monolithic islands, and exciting grottos set against a backdrop of aquamarine waters. The name roughly translates to Descending Dragon Bay in Vietnamese, and tales of local lore depict dragons as the protectors of this national treasure, famous for its unique geomorphology.
Avoid the 3-hour drive to the Bay and opt for a 1-hour flight by seaplane instead. With your private driver and English-speaking guide, head to Hanoi Noi Bai airport and fly to Halong Bay. The flight includes a once in a lifetime 15-minute scenic flight over the bay before landing on water at the Tuan Chau Marina. On arrival, embark on a private charter of the L’Azalée Premium Day Cruise and enjoy a delicious seafood lunch on board.
After lunch, the private 4-hour cruise will set sail past the picturesque islands of Thumb Island, Cock Fighting Island, Incense Island, Ba Hang Floating Village and finally Dog Island. Marvel at the stalactites and stalagmites of Thien Cung Cave, also known as Paradise Cave. Sail back to Tuan Chau Marina, where our guide is waiting for you and take you back to Hanoi.
