Sure it’s possible to travel to Vietnam and cover all together as I described above But not everybody have that long vacation to come over and experience all of them in one visit. My main goal of this article is to explain you the specific area of northern Vietnam. Especially Halong Bay.

There’s without doubt that one of the most important places to travel in northern Vietnam would be Halong Bay. This picturesque and incredibly bay. It’s about 4 hours drive from Hanoi. (and It’s will be shorter time after completed on August 2018. So the time to travel from Hanoi to Halong it take only 90 minutes). And is included in anyone’s itinerary irrespective of the length of holiday. This wonder of nature is worth every effort to arrive there and the dazzling rock formations that dotted throughout the Gulf of Tonkin. Like any form of traveling whether on one’s own or with organized holidays. You can assure that there’ll be all kinds of facilities from budget to the luxury Halong Bay tours. There are various cruise companies that offer enjoyable tours to this part of the Vietnam.

Is Cruise Halong on your top list in your pocket? If yes. Here I explain and give you good advice according to my experience. So you will know how to select from what you receive latter whenever you plan your holiday in Vietnam.

Travel itinerary in Halong Bay will be

  • 4 hours boat trips (It’s too short to visit – Not Recommend )
  • 6 hours boat trip (If time is limited this is okay to visit). This is schedule Halong Bay tour 1 day private.
  • 2 days/1nights (Popular for all traveler)

With the itinerary as above. But I strongly recommend the package of three days two nights. With this program, it will give you time to discover the beauties of the Bay along with some relaxed time for swimming with activities such as rock climbing, Kayaking fishing and more. All of the Halong Bay tours will start from Hanoi city where you’ll be picked up from your hotel and drive to the Halong pier where you will be starting your magical cruising throughout the magnificent bay.

The first night is always planned to invest as an overnight in the cabin of the cruise of your choice, but the second can pick between hotel or bungalow of should you prefer from the cabin as well, this is pretty much depends on what sort of packages you’re considering. No doubt I pick the bungalow because they’re based from the Bay, with small beaches and islands with the spectacular natural environment. Choose from many cruises each with different styles and routes. The kind of cruise or boat: there is various qualities. You have to ask for the name of the boat, the number of stars you’ve and compare it to others.

Usually the majority of the travel bureaus offers packages for holiday to Vietnam with the same cruise, but with somewhat different change on the price, if you journey on one’s own and wish to take the cheapest ship so as to just have a tour on Halong Bay, then I need to state that the lowest priced boats aren’t appropriate because they’ve a very long history of decades of services and maintain, complaints and problems. The middle range cruises are recommended especially if you take an overnight stay.
