Unlock the treasures of Hanoi Capital, Enjoy Natural Walks, Encounter Locals and Immerse yourselves in the Natural and Cultural Heritage in Halong and Lan Ha Bays

Welcome to Hanoi – the capital city of Vietnam. Arrive in Noi Bai International Airport, your driver will be waiting there to take you to your hotel in the city center. The rest of day is free at your leisure. *Additional Water Puppet Show/ Cyclo Tour/ Street food tour is available on your request

Wake up in the early morning our comfortable limousine will pick up at your hotel for 5 hours transfer to Sapa through the beautiful landscape of the mountain area. As soon as you arrive our guide will pick you up and take you to the local restaurant for your lunch on your own expense.

When you awake open the window and have a look outside – weather permitting – you will be treated to amazing views across the rice terraces in the valley. After breakfast you will make your way to Ta Van where you will visit the Giay minority people. This tribe traditionally fished for a living and as a result established themselves close to rivers. They have mastered the art of fishing with bamboo sticks, and cook the fish inside bamboo. Nowadays however you are more likely to see the Giay working in fields planting or harvesting rice. We will continue our walk through an impressive bamboo forest to Giang Ta Chai, and then on to the village of Su Pan where you will be able to rest your legs and take in the stunning mountain scenery as we stop for a picnic lunch.

On Day 3 you will know when it’s time to wake up when you hear the patter of feet on bamboo as the household comes alive. After a filling breakfast in the homestay we will walk 3km to Nam Toong village, home to the Red Dao minority. Providing the weather is nice you will be able to cool off with a swim in the river (and if the weather’s not so nice you still can if you’re feeling brave!). Lunch will be provided back at the Ban Ho homestay, after which we will drive back to Sapa, arriving at around 3pm with a great sense of achievement. It is your own time to discover busy town of Sapa or food massage, shopping before transfer to Lao Cai for night train to Hanoi, one of the great experience by the train in Viet Nam.

Arrive in Hanoi in the early morning; enjoy a leisure walk back to your day-use hotel for a short rest and breakfast before getting on a 3-4 hour journey to Halong Bay – a natural world wonder. Spend a night onboard an elegant junk, cruising on the emerald water to the far and less touched areas of Halong; it is a lifetime experience that you will never forget! And that is reason why we name it as the perfect Vietnam tourfor couples. Arrive at the dock around noon and then you will embark on the cruise, followed by a delicious lunch while the cruise sails further to the secluded, island-dotted bay. You will join the cruise’s activities such as visiting cave and sandstones mountain, kayaking…At night, relax on the sun deck or go squid fishing.

Wake up early and take advantage of the early riser to capture the most beautiful moments of the bay during sun rise then attend a Tai Chi lesson with other passengers. Light breakfast is served with pastries and coffee while your cruise continues sailing through the islands. Depending on each cruise, you may visit nearby islands in a row boat then navigate back to the Halong jetty. Transfer back to Hanoi later this day.

Our driver will pick you up at your hotel then transfer you to the airport for your flight back home.
