Hanoi: Islands & Caves Ha Long Cruise with Lunch & Kayaking

12.Islands & Caves Ha Long Cruise with Lunch & Kayaking

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 1,317 reviews · 4 - 13 hours · from $34

Spend a full day cruising Ha Long Bay from Hanoi, with a seafood lunch, a guided visit to Thien Cung Cave, and 45 minutes of kayaking or bamboo boating. English and Vietnamese guides such as Harry, Benjamin, and Bobby have led past departures. The long road journey is the tradeoff for seeing the bay in one day.

“Thoroughly enjoyed our day out in Halong Bay. The kayaking was a lot of fun going at our own pace looking around the rocks - alternatively you could go on a boat ride with a small group. The guide was informative when walking through the caves explaining the history and pointing out some of the imagery you could find from the formations. The food was alright; I felt like there was a lot of food waste at the end as we couldn't finish it all. They were very accommodating for my partner who was vegetarian.”
