The itineraries of these cheap cruises are varied. You can choose to travel to Halong Bay, Lan Ha Bay, or Bai Tu Long Bay. However, Halong Bay – Bai Tu Long Bay is the most popular travel route for budget cruises which will take you following an off-the-beaten-track path to visit Thien Canh Son Cave, Vung Vieng village, and Cong Do area.

On the other hand, for first-time travelers, as to have a general view of Halong Bay, you should choose to book a cruise which has the classic itinerary to explore some most well-known attractions in Halong such as Sung Sot Cave, Me Cung Cave, Titop (Titov) Island, and Cua Van fishing village.

In addition, based on your preference, you can also choose to travel with a budget Halong Bay 2d1n cruise or a 3d2n cruise to explore more in the bay.

However, according to the government law to preserve the natural ecosystem in Halong and its brother bays, there are only a few places that allow swimming in these areas. Therefore, you should choose to book a budget cruise that includes the Ba Trai Dao beach or Titop island in its activities so that you can swim, or sometimes, the swimming area is at the middle of the bay that was not mentioned in the itinerary, you should ask your travel consultant if swimming is included in the itinerary. In addition, you can also spend some time on spa & massage service on deck to relax your body and free your mind & soul.
