Treat yourself to this 2026 newly built cruise – fresh, modern & less touristy
This 2D1N wooden junk cruise is the newest overnight cruise in Cat Ba. While most other cruises were built in or before 2018 and can feel dated, this one offers a clean, modern feel without losing that charming wooden junk style. Inspired by the The Little Prince, this cruise is all about heartfelt service - where the crew welcomes you with genuine warmth and treats you like a friend.One of the big perks here is that you stay on the same boat throughout - no hopping between day boats and night boats, like some other tours. With just 9 cosy cabins and a max of 18 guests, it’s ideal for couples, families, or anyone who prefers something more local, personal, and less touristy.You'll skip the usual tourist spots and enjoy more time in nature: kayak through quiet lagoons, dig for clams on wild beaches, visit authentic floating villages, and cycle through a peaceful village tucked away in Cat Ba National Park. It’s all about slowing down and soaking in this beautiful landscape - without the crowds.What to ExpectKayak through peaceful lagoons or swim at untouched Lan Ha Bay beachesOptional clam digging during low tide with the chance to enjoy fresh clams onboardExplore Viet Hai Village by bicycle or electric car - lush greenery and fresh air galoreMorning Taichi on deck and a fun onboard Vietnamese spring roll cooking classAll meals included: fresh seafood and Vietnamese specialities served in a cosy dining areaGood to KnowThis is a join-in cruise with a maximum of 18 guests - great for travellers who prefer a laid-back, smaller group vibeYou’ll need to arrange your own travel to Cat Ba town - round-trip transfers from Hanoi are not includedBiking in Viet Hai is easy and scenic - electric cars are also available if you'd rather not cycleItinerary may change slightly depending on weather and tides - but your crew will make the most of it for youAmenities/facilitiesPrivate rooms with air conditioning, hot shower, ensuite bathroomIndoor restaurant serving authentic Vietnamese dishes and fresh seafoodSpacious front and back sundecks with loungers and panoramic views of the bay

Meet your host

Anh started her cruise line back in 2018 with a simple idea—smaller boats, better experiences. Instead of going big, she chose to build a handful of cosy wooden boats, each one thoughtfully designed to suit small groups, couples, or families. She picked Lan Ha Bay as her sailing route—a quieter, less touristy spot near Halong Bay—so her guests could enjoy the same stunning views without the crowds. From peaceful kayaking trips to relaxed evenings fishing off the side of the boat, Anh’s way of hosting is all about slowing down and making people feel at home on the water.
