Ready to start this trip the best way possible? We’re talking about food, obviously. Tonight we’ll have our first dinner together and we’ll get the chance to have a first taste of the local cuisine - maybe some pho, how does that sound?

We rise with the sun so we can start this adventure right: our minivan is ready to take us north. The drive will be pretty long (it’s 4 hours), so we should get comfortable and enjoy the ride - and the view! We finally arrive in Pu Luong: this hidden gem, nestled amidst dramatic mountains in northern Vietnam, is an adventurer's playground and a nature lover's dream.

Calling all adventure seekers and beach bums! Get ready to set sail on a legendary 2-day, 1-night cruise through the awe-inspiring Ha Long Bay. We'll be cruising aboard a swanky boat, your haven for exploring hidden coves, kayaking through emerald waters, and indulging in fresh seafood feasts.

We'll pick you up bright and early from your Hanoi digs and embark on a scenic journey to Ha Long Bay. Buckle up for a 2.5-hour bus ride with a pit stop to stretch your legs – perfect for grabbing some snacks and fueling up for the epic adventure ahead.

As the sun dips below the horizon, grab a drink and watch the sky transform into a fiery masterpiece from the sundeck. After a delicious dinner, the bar is calling your name. Get ready for a night of stories, laughter, and soaking in the magical atmosphere.

Today we suggest waking up early... the sunrise in Ha Long Bay is as magical as the sunset. Plus, we could have some time to practice some yoga and meditation on the deck! With the sun sparkling on the emerald water and the limestone karst formations rising majestically, it's the perfect way to start the day.

Before we disembark, we'll savour a delicious light lunch onboard. With a heart full of memories and a camera roll bursting with stunning photos, we'll board the bus for our return journey to Hanoi.
