Day 1

Halong Bay, located in northeastern Vietnam, is a stunning UNESCO World Heritage site known for its emerald waters and towering limestone islands. This natural wonder offers a variety of activities for visitors, including cruising, kayaking, snorkeling, and exploring extraordinary caves like the Sung Sot. Visitors can also experience the unique cuisine and culture of the floating fishing villages, where locals have lived on the water for generations.

This mystical and serene bay is celebrated for its rich biodiversity and profound historical significance. Home to over 200 species of fish and enchanting marine creatures like the endangered Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin, Halong Bay is a paradise for nature lovers and marine enthusiasts. Additionally, archaeologists have found evidence of human habitation dating back tens of thousands of years back to the late Neolithic era.

The bay's name, which means "Descending Dragon" in Vietnamese, is derived from a local legend of dragons being sent by the gods to protect the Vietnamese people and visitors can’t help but notice the rock formations bearing a striking resemblance to a dragon’s scales and tail. This unique landscape has also served as a backdrop for several movies, including the James Bond film "Tomorrow Never Dies" and "Kong: Skull Island". Whether you're seeking adventure, relaxation, or a glimpse into Vietnam's rich cultural heritage, Halong Bay offers an unforgettable experience.
