Stay on a boat and a floating homestay—comfort meets adventure in Cat Ba
This is one of the few trips in Cat Ba that lets you stay both on a traditional cruise and at a floating homestay—so you don’t have to choose between comfort and a local, off-the-grid experience. On the first night, unwind in a cosy private cabin aboard a 5-cabin boat. The next night? You’ll sleep above the water at a floating homestay tucked among the limestone cliffs. It’s the perfect mix of plush and personal.Most overnight cruises only offer a single night at sea and stick to standard routes—but this 3-day experience goes deeper. You’ll venture further into Lan Ha, Ha Long and even the cinematic Tung Cai Lagoon (from Kong: Skull Island) in a small group of max 10 people. And unlike bigger cruises, you'll have more freedom to explore quiet lagoons, snorkel off hidden beaches, kayak through caves, and connect with local life.If you're after a trip that's not just sightseeing but genuinely immersive—with real variety, no crowds, and no boring bits—this is it. Ideal for conscious travellers and adventurers who want both comfort and a dose of culture, this stay-and-sail combo lets you experience Cat Ba from two totally different (and unforgettable) angles.What to ExpectStay one night on a traditional 5-cabin boat and one night at a floating homestay—two vibes, one seamless tripKayak through Tung Cai Lagoon, where Kong: Skull Island was filmed (a spot most cruises miss)Snorkel in hidden coves, swim off sandy beaches, and watch for wildlife in caves and lagoonsCycle through the jungle to Viet Hai Village and hike to Navy Peak for incredible bay viewsJoin a cooking class and go night kayaking to see glowing planktonAll activities, entrance fees, gear, meals, towels and water included—no extra planning needed!Good to KnowDay 1 (8:30 AM – 4:30 PM): Travel on a day boat (max 25 guests, no cabins) for better access to hidden spotsFrom 4:30 PM on Day 1 to 3:30 PM on Day 2: Stay on a 5-cabin overnight boat (max 10 guests) for a more comfortable and intimate experience.
