★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 1,166 reviews · 1 day · from $22Our pick

Cruise Lan Ha and Ha Long bays from Cat Ba with swimming, a bamboo cave ride, lunch, cycling, and Viet Hai village.

“The lunch was actually very very good! Our guide was THE sweetest, he even remembered all of our names! While we cycled to the village, ( do the cycling if you can instead of the electric car, it's so worth it ) he made sure we were all okay and checked frequently on us. He gave us a nice heads up about the Cat ba island must-know infos, and even let us try a local snake juice ( that was unexpectedly NOT bad). Totally worth it, and would recommend it!”
