Premier Luxury Cruise - Halong Bay - Lan Ha Bay

There is still tranquility to be found in Halong Bay, and the  Premier Cruise knows exactly how to get there. This is one of the few luxury cruises in Halong Bay taking in the grandeur from its most flattering angle, Lan Ha Bay, an area where hushed elegance takes centre stage. Lan Ha bay is situated in the southern regions of Halong Bay and presents its tropical splendour to a much diminished audience of tourists, meaning that tourists who do make the trip are treated to a bay time-frozen in a prehistoric era. Limestone columns stand silently amid a lapping jade ocean, reflecting the green of exotic foliage jutting from the fringes of sandy shores. This perfect scene lies even closer to Hanoi than the main body of Halong Bay, meaning our passengers can enjoy less time on the road and more time answering the whisper of Lan Ha. Day 1: Hanoi – Lan Ha Bay – Dark & Bright Caves – Overnight Area (L/D) 09.00: Await the collection of the guide and driver in your hotel lobby. Once they have arrived, we will begin our transfer to Hai Phong city. 12:00: Rest at the harbour as the Premier Cruise completes its final preparations. We can board shortly after this and enjoy our welcome drink. 13:00 - 15:15: Sit down in the dining room for a delicious lunch and a scrolling view of the wonderfully unique limestone towers outside the windows. On sampan boats, some residents of the bay will show us their home by taking us to the Dark & Bright caves, two gorgeous caverns with a vast and enclosed lake on the other side. Swimming is also available here. 17:00We return to the Premier Cruise to catch the daily spectacle of a gorgeous sunset, as well as happy hour at the bar.  19:00: Along with a fantastic dinner, we have a very special performance of traditional Vietnamese music in the dining room or on the top deck. Before you retire to your cabin tonight, perhaps you would like to head to the bar, the spa or join the crew for some squid fishing. Day 2: Lan Ha Bay – Tra Bau – Hanoi (B/L) 06:00: Begin your new day with the Tai Chi session on the top deck, run by our onboard Tai Chi teacher as the sunrise greets us from behind the mountains. 07:00 - 08:15: Enjoy breakfast in the fresh air and peaceful beauty of the Bay.   10:00: Experience some fantastic kayaking to discover the lovely Tra Bau area. Visit a fishing farm and socialize with the resident fishermen in order to know more about their life and how they work every day. Return to the ship and enjoy the cooking demonstration put on by our talented chef as they give you an insight into Vietnamese cuisine, then sit down for a lovely lunch buffet, on our approach to the harbour. 11:45: Stepping off the Premier Cruise at the harbour, we board the bus and head back to Hanoi. Thank you for coming with us on the Premier Cruise for this trip around Lan Ha Bay; we hope that you enjoyed your time and that we can see you again in the near future!
