This 3-day package is the perfect introduction to two of the region’s most iconic destinations — Hanoi and Ha Long Bay.

Begin your journey in Vietnam’s charming capital, where centuries of history blend seamlessly with vibrant modern life. Continue to Ha Long Bay, a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site, famed for its dramatic limestone karsts rising from emerald waters.

Enjoy a relaxing overnight cruise through the bay’s breathtaking seascapes, explore hidden grottoes, glide past floating villages, and unwind on deck as the sun sets over the limestone islands. With time to cruise, explore, and simply relax on board, this short journey offers a truly memorable glimpse into the natural beauty of Northern Vietnam.

Tours Itinerary

DAY 1: ARRIVE IN HANOI, EXPLORE THE CITY HIGHLIGHTS.

Welcome to Hanoi – Vietnam’s charming capital blending ancient tradition with modern vitality.

Upon arrival at the airport, you will be welcomed by our driver and transferred to your hotel for check-in.

After check-in, you will have free time to explore Hanoi city at your own leisure. Suggested places to visit include the Temple of Literature, Vietnam’s first university representing the country’s rich Confucian heritage; Hoan Kiem Lake, the spiritual heart of the city; and Ngoc Son Temple, beautifully located on a small island.

You may also enjoy a cyclo ride through the bustling Old Quarter, where each of the 36 ancient streets is traditionally named after the crafts and goods once traded there, offering a glimpse of Hanoi’s vibrant local life and charming French-colonial architecture.

Please note: This program includes airport pick-up and hotel transfer only. The sightseeing activities mentioned above are suggested for your reference and are not included in the package. Should you wish to arrange a guided tour with a private vehicle and professional tour guide, we would be happy to organize it for you upon request.

In the evening, you may enjoy authentic Vietnamese cuisine at a local restaurant or explore Hanoi’s colourful night scene at your leisure.

🏨 Overnight in Hanoi

  • Inclusion: Private transfer, hotel in Hanoi.

DAY 2 – HANOI → HA LONG BAY CRUISE (B,L,D)

After breakfast, embark on a scenic 2½-hour journey through the peaceful countryside of the Red River Delta, passing by lush rice paddies and local villages before arriving at Tuan Chau Marina, the gateway to Ha Long Bay — a UNESCO World Heritage Site celebrated for its emerald waters and majestic limestone pillars.

Upon arrival, board your Ha Long Cruise and receive a warm welcome from the friendly crew with a refreshing drink and a brief orientation about the cruise itinerary and safety guidelines. Settle into your comfortable cabin, then enjoy a sumptuous seafood lunch served in the dining room as the boat begins gliding through the breathtaking scenery of the bay. Admire iconic limestone formations such as Dinh Huong (Incense Burner Islet), Cho Da (Stone Dog Islet), and Ga Choi (Fighting Cocks Islet) — each shaped by nature over millions of years.

In the afternoon, the cruise anchors near a quiet area of the bay. Visit a local pearl farm to learn about traditional pearl cultivation, or explore the magnificent Sung Sot (Surprise) Cave, one of the largest and most beautiful caves in Ha Long Bay, filled with shimmering stalactites and stalagmites. Afterwards, you can go kayaking or swim in the calm, jade-green waters surrounded by towering cliffs.

As the sun sets, return to the cruise for sunset cocktails on the sundeck, the perfect time to capture stunning photos of the golden horizon. Join an interactive Vietnamese cooking class, where the chef will guide you to make traditional spring rolls or other local favourites.

In the evening, enjoy a romantic dinner served on board under a starry sky, followed by free time to relax, try squid fishing, or simply unwind with a drink at the bar.

🚢 Overnight on Ha Long Cruise

  • Inclusion: Shuttle bus, tour guide, entrance fee, breakfast, brunch, dinner, cruise in Halong bay (cabin for 2 people)

DAY 3 – TITOV ISLAND • RETURN TO HANOI (B,L)

Awake to the tranquil beauty of Ha Long Bay and start your day with an early Tai Chi session on the sundeck — a serene way to greet the morning surrounded by misty limestone peaks. After a light breakfast, the cruise anchors near Titov Island, where you can climb to the island’s summit for a breathtaking panoramic view of the bay or enjoy a refreshing swim on its sandy beach.

Return to the cruise for brunch as you leisurely sail past the bay’s final scenic spots, taking in the last glimpses of this natural wonder. Disembark at the pier around 11:30 AM, where your driver will be waiting to transfer you back to Hanoi. Arrive in the afternoon and continue to the airport for your onward flight.

Tour of Vietnam

Impress travel were amazing. Did my bookings with Daniel for our tour of Vietnam and I must say Daniel was very professional and prompt with his services. All the arrangement, plans, pick-up & drop-off services, hotels, vehicles, sightseeing tours and guides were spot on and excellent. Did 4 nights Hanoi, 1 night Hà Long Bay cruise, 3 nights Hoian, 4 nights Saigon and 1 night in Can Tho. It was totally awesome. Every part of the journey was superbly arranged and planned. I will highly recommend Impress Travel for anyone interested in visiting Vietnam. Very organized and reliable!

The tour was fantastic

I booked with Impress Travel in July. My contact person was Tommy Thang. He is an amazing person. He was very helpful. He changed my program twice for me. Very accommodating!
We started our holiday in the north (Sapa)of Vietnam and travelled down to HCMC.
The tour was fantastic, Tommy's arrangements were to the"T".
I will always use them if I have to visit the area again and recommend them to one and all.
Thank you once again Mr.Tommy and the Impress Team.
