🗺️ The Itinerary: A Voyage into Nature
Day 1: The Emerald Maze & Bioluminescent Magic
(Meals: Lunch, Dinner)
11:30 – 12:15 | The Adventure Begins: We pick you up directly from your hotel in Cat Ba Town. A short scenic drive takes us to CaiBeo Habour, where the bay breeze welcomes you.
12:30 | Welcome Aboard: Step onto your floating home. Savor a delicious lunch featuring fresh local seafood as we set sail, leaving the busy port behind to enter the tranquil waters of Lan Ha Bay.
14:30 | Kayaking the Hidden Lagoons: We drop anchor near the mysterious Dark & Bright Cave (Hang Sang Toi). Grab a paddle and kayak through the stalactite-filled arches. Glide silently into a hidden lagoon surrounded by towering cliffs—a moment of pure peace.
15:30 | Thrills at Ba Trai Dao: We navigate to the Ba Trai Dao (Three Peaches) beaches. Here, the water is crystal clear. You can relax on the beach, swim, or for the thrill-seekers: jump from the boat’s deck straight into the refreshing sea!
17:30 | Sunset & Flavors: Back on board, catch the breathtaking sunset turning the sky into purple and gold. Join our chef for a Cooking Class to learn how to make traditional Vietnamese rolls.
19:00 | Night Wonders: Dinner is served. But the magic happens afterwards. Try your hand at Squid Fishing, or if nature aligns (weather permitting), witness the surreal beauty of Bioluminescent Plankton lighting up the water like a starry sky.
Overnight in a deluxe cabin on the bay.

08:00 | Expedition to Viet Hai: We transfer to a smaller boat to reach the Viet Hai pier. From here, you’ll cycle (or take an electric car) along a stunning path that cuts through the jungle of Cat Ba National Park.
09:00 | Village Life & Fish Spa: Arrive at Viet Hai Ancient Village. Meet the locals, see their traditional homes, and enjoy a fun, ticklish experience: a “Fish Massage”! Let the Garra Rufa fish nibble away your dead skin in a cool stream—a must-try experience.
11:00 | Farewell Feast: Return to the main boat. Pack your bags and relax on the sundeck as we cruise back. A fulfilling lunch is served before we reach the harbor.
12:00 | Journey Home: Disembark at the port. Our shuttle bus will take you back to your hotel in Cat Ba Town, concluding an unforgettable escape.
The moment we’ve been waiting for, the sunrise has begun.
