Overview:

Private tour to Halong Bay - the mystical scenery of Halong Bay where thousands of limestone islands jut out of the emerald sea, sculpted into bizarre shapes and surrounded by colourful floating villages is a truly a breathtaking destination.

Description:

        “Where the dragon descends into the sea”

Pick-up from your Hanoi hotel by private car and local guide and drive around 3 hours or a hundred miles from the city through the rural landscapes of the Red River Delta, where farmers and water buffalo work in the rice paddies, to the fabled Halong Bay, one of Asia’s most celebrated natural wonders and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. According to legend, the gods sent Vietnam a family of dragons who spat mountains of jade into the sea to form a protective barrier from invaders threatening from China, and there are a thousand of these limestone karst mountains, shrouded in vegetation, and islands with rocky inlets and sandy beaches, that pepper the calm, emerald waters of the bay – some say these are the dragons themselves protecting the country still. You may recognise the scenery from the James Bond film, Tomorrow Never Dies. Enjoy a 3-4 hour cruise and the fresh seafood served on board, before returning to your Hanoi hotel by car after an exhilarating day!
