Immersive Lan Ha cruise with unique village, cave & local lunch experience
If you’ve got the time, this 3D2N cruise is 100% worth it. While most travellers do just a night on the bay, this extra day gives you the chance to go beyond the usual route. You’ll get to dive deeper—literally and figuratively—into the Lan Ha landscape and local life. Day 2 is when it really shines: you’ll cycle through peaceful Viet Hai village, visit an archaeological cave rarely seen by tourists, and enjoy a home-cooked lunch in a traditional house. It’s the kind of day you just can’t squeeze into a shorter cruise.Where 2D1N cruises often feel a bit rushed, this one takes it slow, giving you more time to soak in the beauty, chat with locals, and explore hidden spots that most tours miss. From biking through serene forest paths to discovering traces of ancient settlements at Tien Duc Cave, it’s a rare glimpse into the quieter, cultural side of Cat Ba. And you’ll be doing all this with a small group, a bilingual guide (English & French), and plenty of flexibility to relax or jump into activities like kayaking, clam digging, and night squid fishing.This is perfect for conscious travellers who want more than just the highlights. If you’re after a more immersive experience with a splash of adventure and a lot of heart, you’ll love this cruise. Especially great for couples, active families, or friends looking for meaningful time off-grid.What to ExpectExplore Lan Ha Bay & (weather-permitting) parts of Bai Tu Long Bay over 3 daysCycle through peaceful Viet Hai village and see what daily island life is likeWalk through Cat Ba National Park and visit archaeological Tien Đuc CaveEnjoy a traditional homemade lunch inside an ancient house in Viet HaiKayak through hidden lagoons, swim off untouched beaches, go clam diggingOptional night kayaking to catch glowing plankton in the darkCooking demonstration, Tai Chi, karaoke and more on boardCosy, boutique wooden boat – small group size (max 26 guests)Good to KnowThis 3D2N option offers a deeper, slower experience than shorter 2D1N cruisesLunch in a local home in Viet Hai is included—something most cruises don’t offerTiền Đức Cave visit adds a historical and cultural layer to your tripEnglish and French-speaking guide on boardWeather may affect which parts of the bay you explore (Lan Ha or Bai Tu Long)Personal expenses and drinks not includedRound-trip transfer from Hanoi can be arranged at extra costAmenities/facilitiesDouble & Triple Cabins: ensuite bathrooms, air-conditioning, sea views, some with balconySpacious indoor dining area & two sundecks front and backRestaurant serving fresh seafood and Vietnamese classics, with flexible dinner options (BBQ, hotpot, etc.)Kayaks, bicycles, electric car rides, and fishing gear provided

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.
