Our boats start from Cat Ba island, which is more beautiful and more interesting than Ha Long city. We avoid the crowd, take you to wonderful areas that less touristy, you can enjoy nice landscapes, real natural, clear water, secluded beaches.

Our boats anchor at pocket lagoons for staying overnight.

Our local guides are all experienced and enthusiastic, and will help you to discover the bay and take care of you during the trip.

-We do a lot of different trips than other tour companies. It is well worth the money with nicer itineraries (more time kayaking, swimming each day), and we cruise further to amazing landscapes in less touristy areas. You also have more time on the boat, not like a 24 hours tour by other companies.

Join us, you will start the trip at 11.00 of Day 1 and finish at 15.00 of Day 2. What should be better?

-The trip can be flexibly changed due to customer's demands, the weather and the tide as well.

  • Awesome trip, highly professional company

    My tour was originally cancelled due to the government closing the bay during a tropical storm. Although my time in Cat Ba was short, the company worked with me to get me another chance. In the end, I had a beautiful day and overnight, and then a speedboat back to catch my flight from Hanoi. The experience was great, the food was awesome, and most of all, the company was adaptable and helpful and helped customers have a great experience when nature was not cooperating.

    EN beautiful and fun trip through an insanely beautiful piece of nature. DE cruise takes you to DE quiet spots, so you can often enjoy the area in peace (with no or only a few other boats). DE group consisted of 14 people, so also on board it is a small but nice group. DE kayak trip EN give you an even better view of this area and because you get so close even better insight into how big DE rocks EN and islands are. Our smiling guide Tonny gave tijdens DE trip a lot of information about the area, the EN brands and life in Vietnam. With beautiful EN open stories this made DE trip even more fun.
