A UNESCO World Heritage Site of extraordinary natural beauty, Ha Long Bay is a dreamlike seascape of limestone islands rising from emerald waters. Best experienced from the deck of a luxury cruise, it offers a serene contrast to Vietnam’s vibrant cities, with days spent gliding between karsts, kayaking through hidden lagoons and swimming in secluded coves far from the crowds.
Most guests spend one or two nights on the water, anchoring in quiet bays beneath star-filled skies and waking to mist drifting across the horizon — an unforgettable highlight of any Vietnam journey.
We include Ha Long Bay as part of tailor-made itineraries, working with a carefully chosen collection of boutique vessels that explore the quieter reaches of the region. Highlights include the contemporary, wellness-led Bhaya Soul and the elegant all-suite Heritage Line Ylang or Heritage Line Ginger which operate primarily in the serene waters of neighbouring Lan Ha Bay.
Experiences typically include kayaking, cave visits, swimming, sunrise tai chi and exceptional Vietnamese cuisine, all enjoyed at a relaxed pace in remarkable surroundings.
Located around two to three hours from Hanoi, it is easily incorporated into a bespoke Vietnam itinerary. We generally recommend a two-night cruise to fully appreciate the scenery and to explore beyond the busiest routes.
