Welcome to Hanoi, the elegant capital of Vietnam. Upon arrival, you will be warmly welcomed by your guide and transferred to your hotel for check-in. Standard hotel check-in time is around 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM.
The rest of the day is free at leisure, giving you time to relax after your journey and settle into the opening moments of an itinerary that will gradually unfold from historic cities to island shores and marine landscapes.

Upon arrival, board your day cruise and begin sailing through the magnificent scenery of Halong Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay. Enjoy a light breakfast on board as the vessel moves past dramatic rock formations and scattered islets. Visit Sung Sot Cave, the largest cave in the bay, then continue to Titov Island, where the open water and sweeping views bring a distinctly coastal character to the day.
A premium lunch is served on board as the cruise continues through this extraordinary maritime setting. Later, visit Luon Cave, where you may choose to explore by kayak or bamboo boat at additional cost. With its quiet waters and sculpted limestone scenery, Halong Bay sets a beautiful tone for the sea-linked experiences that continue later in the journey.
After the cruise, return to Hanoi.
