Cycad Grand Cruise 3 Days 2 Nights

Morning

Between 07:30 and 08:30, a driver will collect guests from hotels in Hanoi and transfer them to Halong International Harbor (book the transfer service with extra charge).

Upon arrival around 12:00, guests will have a short time to relax before boarding Cycad Grand via a tender boat (approximately 5 - 10 minutes). A warm welcome awaits you on board with refreshing drinks, followed by a safety briefing and cabin check-in, marking the beginning of your journey.

A beautifully prepared set lunch is then served as Cycad Grand gently sails through the serene landscapes of Bai Tu Long Bay, surrounded by limestone formations and tranquil waters.

Afternoon

The journey continues with a visit to Vung Vieng Fishing Village, where guests can explore by kayak or enjoy a traditional bamboo boat rowed by local fishermen. This is a unique opportunity to experience the authentic rhythms and heritage of local fishing life.

Returning onboard, guests can refresh and unwind before enjoying Happy Hour on the sundeck, accompanied by a canapé selection and relaxing bay views.

Evening

After an active afternoon, a refined set dinner featuring Vietnamese cuisine is served in an elegant setting. The remainder of the evening is free for guests to relax on the sundeck, enjoy board games, or try squid fishing under the night sky.

Morning

Awaken to the peaceful rhythm of the bay with an invigorating Tai Chi session on the sundeck, a gentle way to reconnect body and mind. (This activity may be canceled in case of unfavorable weather.)

A light buffet breakfast follows, allowing you to savor the fresh sea breeze while watching the spectacular limestone landscape slowly emerge in the morning light.

After breakfast, enjoy some time to relax onboard before setting off on a deeper exploration of Bai Tu Long Bay. A day boat will take you further into the secluded Cap La Area, a pristine corner of the bay known for its hidden lagoons, untouched beaches, and dramatic limestone scenery.

The adventure continues at Thay Cave, where you can kayak through emerald waters, swim in the calm bay, unwind on natural sandy beaches, and discover the fascinating cave nestled among the karst formations. This peaceful area offers an authentic encounter with the bay's unspoiled beauty.

Afternoon & Evening

After returning to the day boat, enjoy a freshly prepared lunch featuring simple yet flavorful local dishes. As you dine, the surrounding scenery provides a constantly changing backdrop of limestone islands and tranquil waters.

In the afternoon, sit back and admire the breathtaking landscapes as the day boat cruises through the heart of Bai Tu Long Bay on its return journey.

Arriving back at Cycad Grand in the mid-afternoon, the remainder of the day is yours to enjoy at leisure, with the same relaxing onboard experiences as Day 1, including sunset moments, Happy Hour, and evening activities.

Morning & Afternoon

Welcome the morning with a revitalizing Tai Chi session on the sundeck, allowing yourself to embrace the peaceful atmosphere of the bay and start the day with renewed energy. (This activity may be canceled in case of rain.)

A light buffet breakfast is then served as the cruise gently sails through the stunning seascape.

Today's highlight is a visit to Thien Canh Son Cave, a remarkable natural wonder known for its fascinating geological formations and panoramic surroundings. Be sure to bring your camera and wear comfortable shoes for the short hike to the cave.

Returning to Cycad Grand, enjoy the final moments of your voyage as the cruise follows a scenic route back toward the harbor, revealing fresh perspectives of Bai Tu Long Bay. Check-out takes place around 09:30, followed by a tasty brunch served onboard.
