Day 2
06h30 Wake up to see the dawn on the bay and then have breakfast. The boat takes you to see some other parts of the bay.
Visit the floating fish farm. You will learn how the local people there make their livings. Continue cruising further to see the unique Ha Long bay. Enjoy the last swimming on the bay.
10.40 Get off the boat to Cat Ba.
You have couple of hours free. You can take motorbike tour (with or without driver) to go around and visit Cat Ba island; or you walk yourself to see Cat Ba town, beaches and local market (This part is optional).
12h00 Have lunch in a local restaurant.
If our boat is not busy to pick new group, we can offer you longer time
on boat. So you will have lunch and stay on boat until 13.30 before taking the hydrofoil. We only can confirm this when you are on the tour. If yes, we can take you to a beach for swimming and relaxing.
Take hydrofoil from Cat Ba to Hai Phong and drive back to Hanoi (be in Hanoi around 17.30 – 17.45) or drive to
Ninh Binh for Tam Coc trip or you can get to
Sapa by night train from Hanoi in the same evening.
