Unique Experience of Halong Bay
Halong Sky Tour
Where the normal boat tour is exactly parallel to night, the Halong Sky Tour is parallel today. On a boat, you’re right up against the islands with their towering beauty, but flying over them? Well, that’s where the magic happens! You’ll feel the thrill of flying as you glide above the sparkling waters, rugged cliffs, and natural wonders of Halong Bay unfolding every which way.
That 25-minute flight covers so much more than could ever be seen from a boat in that amount of time. You’ll fly over thousands of limestone islands, cached views of hidden coves, and emerald waters beneath you. It’s a view to render one breathless, affording an unequal panorama of this UNESCO World Heritage Site that will leave one unforgettable.
Why Choose Halong Sky Tour?
The safety and comfort of our passengers are our top priorities. You fly in the Cessna Grand Caravan 208B-EX, a stable seaplane that offers very smooth flights.

You will have enough space to take photos, ask as many questions as you like, and savor the moment without any hurry.
And let’s not forget the environmental impact: such a short, scenic flight is less of a burden on the environment than fuel-heavy, hours-long boat tours. Plus, with the seaplane, you’re seeing more in less time, making it the ultimate choice for an eco-conscious traveler.
And our professional crew is second to none! With years of flying experience leading tours, the pilots know Halong Bay inside and out and will point out all the key landmarks as you fly over them.
