A romantic & adventurous Vietnam journey in 10 days 9 nights

Upon your arrival at Noi Bai International Airport in Hanoi, complete the immigration procedures and proceed to pillar B10, where our driver will be waiting to welcome you with a personalized signboard. You will then be transferred by private vehicle to your hotel for check-in.

The remainder of the day is free at leisure for you to explore Hanoi’s vibrant Old Quarter. This bustling maze of narrow streets and alleyways is home to thousands of small shops, traditional houses, and local vendors. It is the perfect place to immerse yourself in the daily life of Hanoians, capture lively photos, and enjoy the unique atmosphere of the city.

In the evening, embark on a Hanoi Street Food Tour – a journey through the city’s culinary heart. Choose between a lunch departure at 11:30 or a dinner departure at 18:00 (pick-up time may vary within 15 minutes). Guided by a local food expert, you’ll wander through the Old Quarter, tasting authentic dishes that reflect the rich culture and history of this thousand-year-old city.

Among the highlights is Bun Cha (Grilled Pork with Vermicelli Noodles) – a dish that gained global fame when former US President Barack Obama enjoyed it during his visit to Hanoi. Another unmissable treat is the iconic Egg Coffee, with its bold aroma of strong Vietnamese coffee perfectly balanced by the creamy froth of whipped egg yolk – a true Hanoi specialty.

Vegetarian options or other special dietary requirements are available upon request, ensuring that every guest enjoys a personalized and memorable experience. Overnight in Hanoi.

After breakfast, set off from Hanoi’s Old Quarter for the drive to Tuan Chau Wharf along the modern expressway. On the way, a short stop at a pearl center gives you the chance to discover the art of pearl cultivation and admire delicate handicrafts before continuing the journey.

By late morning, you arrive at Tuan Chau Harbour and board your cruise. After settling into your cabin, enjoy a buffet lunch while the ship glides past limestone karsts and emerald waters, unveiling the beauty of Halong Bay.

In the afternoon, the cruise takes you to the Pearl Farm village, where you can observe traditional techniques of pearl making or join an optional kayaking trip across the calm waters. The adventure continues at Titov Island, where you may climb to the summit for breathtaking panoramic views or relax with a refreshing swim on the beach.

As the day draws to a close, head to the Sky Bar for a Sunset Party with fruits and snacks, perhaps accompanied by Happy Hour cocktails or a soothing massage. A lively cooking demonstration follows, introducing you to the secrets of Vietnamese spring rolls before you savor a European set-menu dinner in the onboard restaurant.

The evening offers the charm of squid fishing beneath the starlit sky or simply unwinding on deck, surrounded by the tranquil beauty of Halong Bay. Overnight onboard.
