Oris Cruise 2 Days 1 Night

Morning

For guests booking the transfer service (extra fee needed), pick-up is scheduled between 07:45 and 08:30 from hotels around the Hanoi Old Quarter. The exact pick-up time will be confirmed one day before departure.

Your journey begins with a scenic drive to Tuan Chau Harbor, where a tender boat awaits to transfer you to the Oris Cruise around 12:00. Upon boarding, settle into the graceful ambiance of this boutique retreat and enjoy a refreshing welcome drink while the Cruise Manager introduces the voyage ahead.

As Oris Cruise gently sails into the tranquil waters of Lan Ha Bay, a delightful lunch is served. Through the panoramic windows, watch a dreamlike landscape unfold. Far removed from the crowds, Lan Ha Bay reveals a more peaceful side of the Gulf of Tonkin.

Afternoon

We venture into the secluded Ao Ech area, a "little paradise" hidden away from the world. Let's grab a paddle and kayak across the crystal-clear, calm emerald waters.

Back onboard, the late afternoon invites moments of pure relaxation. As the sun begins its descent, gather on deck for a sunset party and admire the golden hues dancing across the water. Guests are also welcome to join a Vietnamese cooking class and learn the art of making traditional spring rolls, one of the country’s most beloved dishes.

Evening

Savor a refined dinner in an elegant setting before enjoying the remainder of the evening at your own pace. You may sip handcrafted cocktails at the panoramic bar, indulge in a soothing spa treatment, watch a movie, or try your hand at squid fishing beneath the star-filled sky.

Morning

Awaken to the morning mist drifting over the karst towers. Brew your own traditional Vietnamese drip-phin coffee. While the coffee leisurely drops, step into a graceful Tai Chi session on the sundeck to revitalize your energy.

Savor your perfect brew as the mindfulness bell chimes. Then, a light breakfast is served as Oris Cruise continues its graceful journey through a maze of karst formations. 

We transition back to the historic core of Ha Long Bay to visit Thien Cung Cave, one of the most spectacular natural wonders of the region. Walk through its grand chambers to marvel at the thousands of ancient stalactites and stalagmites. (This cross-bay itinerary enriches your experience by showcasing both iconic destinations in one trip). 

Returning to the cruise, we enjoy a few final moments to relax before check-out at 9:30. As Oris Cruise slowly glides back toward the harbor, a carefully prepared lunch is served against a backdrop of emerald waters, offering a memorable conclusion to your voyage.

By 11:45, the cruise arrives at Tuan Chau Harbor, where it is time to bid farewell to the crew. If you book the return transfer service (extra fee needed), arrival at your hotel in Hanoi Old Quarter around 15:00. Carry home not only beautiful photographs, but also the lingering sense of calm and renewal inspired by the bay.
