Lan Ha Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay both offer breathtaking karst formations and stunning islets. However, each bay features its own characteristics.
While Lan Ha is perfect for high-end travelers and vibrant trips, Bai Tu Long would be ideal for off-the-beaten-path and tranquility seekers.
Lan Ha | Bai Tu Long |
Availability Plenty of options Most modern ships |
Fewer choices Most junk boats |
Facilities Luxurious facilities: poker, live kitchen, spa, fitness, mini golf, etc. |
Old-fashioned furniture: bar, restaurant, and jacuzzi |
Cruise price From US $140 - $300/pax |
From US $123 - $198/pax |
So based on your preference, you can decide on either Bai Tu Long or Lan Ha Bay.
Right next to each other in the bay complex, both Halong Bay and Lan Ha Bay feature hundreds of islets, limestone caves, and fishing villages. Nevertheless, here are the key differences between the two bays.
Lan Ha | Halong |
Location Cat Ba Island, Hai Phong |
Halong City, Quang Ninh |
Places to visit More secluded parts: Ba Trai Dao, Viet Hai Village, Dark & Bright Cave |
Well-known and touristic attractions: Titop Island, Luon Cave, Surprising Cave |
Overall, Halong Bay is a must visit for first-time travelers with a rush itinerary, while Lan Ha Bay is more suitable for a relaxing trip.
