Uncover Lan Ha Bay's Hidden Wonders with a Local Guide and Exclusive Route
Step aboard for an intimate and exclusive journey through the untouched beauty of Lan Ha Bay, a hidden gem that most tourists never get to see! Unlike typical crowded tours, this adventure is designed for a select few—just 10 guests, compared to the usual 30-50—ensuring you enjoy a personalized, serene experience. Led by Tien Anh, a local expert with unmatched knowledge of the bay, you’ll follow a completely different itinerary, avoiding the tourist traps and heading to secret spots that larger boats simply can’t reach. Plus, with a later start time, you’ll skip the crowds and enjoy the bay in peaceful solitude.You'll wind your way through towering limestone cliffs, explore mysterious caves, uncover serene lagoons, and relax on secluded, tourist-free beaches. What sets this tour apart even more? On high tide days, you'll dive into the life of a fisherman, collecting mussels or going fishing in a traditional fishing village. On low tide days, you'll hunt for thunder crabs in hidden caves—a rare, hands-on experience that no other boat tour offers.The experience culminates with a delicious seafood dinner at a local floating restaurant, featuring the fresh catch of the day, and ends with a beautiful sunset cruise. You’ll leave feeling like you’ve uncovered Lan Ha Bay’s best-kept secrets, with personalised touches that make this tour truly special.What to ExpectKayak through limestone caves and explore serene lagoons untouched by touristsVisit a local fishing village to learn about traditional fishing and collect fresh mussels (high tide)Go thunder crab hunting in secluded caves during low tide — a fun, hands-on experienceEnjoy a fresh seafood dinner at a local floating restaurantRelax and watch the sunset over quiet, scenic beachesGood to KnowThe itinerary may vary depending on tide conditions.
