Four-Day Tour of Northern Vietnam

Day 1: Hanoi – Tu?n Châu – Ha Long Bay Cruise

We will commence our adventure by picking you up from the heart of Hanoi, embarking on an exploration of northern Vietnam's highlights. The journey via minibus will take us across the charming rural landscapes characteristic of the region, with a brief rest stop along the way before reaching the port of Tu?n Châu, where our cruise on Ha Long Bay begins.

Once on board, you can admire the breathtaking views of Ha Long Bay's iconic karst formations from the panoramic decks. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this stunning natural panorama is hailed as one of the most enchanting destinations in Southeast Asia.

Following a hearty Vietnamese lunch in the boat's dining area, you will have the opportunity to join a kayaking excursion in Ha Long Bay. Get ready to explore its limestone caves and observe its rugged islets up close while paddling through the crystal-clear waters for about an hour. After the kayaking adventure, we’ll change into comfortable clothing for a delightful Vietnamese cooking class on deck!

We will wrap up our first day with a dinner on board.

Day 2: Ha Long Bay Cruise – Hanoi – T? Van (Sapa)

The following day begins with an enjoyable breakfast aboard the boat, capped off with an invigorating Tai Chi session to awaken the senses.

Once you’ve relaxed and enjoyed the boat's amenities, you may choose to soak up the sun lounging on the sun deck or take a refreshing dip in the outdoor hot tubs! Our two-day cruise will conclude with our return to Tu?n Châu, after which we will make our way back to Hanoi.

Upon arrival in the capital, we will board a bus for a comfortable overnight ride to T? Van, a charming town close to the renowned Sapa rice terraces.

Day 3: T? Van (Sapa) – Lao Ch?i – Linh H?

Our arrival at T? Van station will take place early in the morning, after a visit to Hoang Lien National Park and a local home, offering insight into the community's lifestyle.

Upon reaching T? Van station, a minibus will be there to transport us to our traditional lodgings for the night, hosted by a local Zay family. A warm and hearty breakfast will await us.

Empowered by our meal, we will journey on a trekking route of 7-12 kilometers (4-7 miles) with a knowledgeable guide. As we navigate through the verdant jungle landscapes and take in the sight of the iconic terraced rice fields, we will gain insight into the daily lives of various ethnic communities in the area.

Following the river's path will lead us to Lao Ch?i, where you can visit the local school and enjoy a traditional lunch at a nearby family's home. We will continue our trek through quaint villages like Linh H?, eventually returning to our homestay for dinner and rest in preparation for the final day of our adventure.

Day 4: Jungle Trek – Sapa – Hanoi

After breakfast with our hosts, we will embark on our second trek through the spectacular scenery of Sapa. Our route will take us to the valley's highest point, where we can enjoy the enchanting experience of swimming in hidden waterfalls and wandering through the area's bamboo forests, showcasing breathtaking vistas.

The trek will culminate back at the homestay, where we will share lunch with the Zay family<\/strong> before saying our farewells. After our meal, we will transfer to Sapa town by minibus, granting you an hour of free time to explore.

Finally, we will regroup at Sapa bus station to return to Hanoi, expected to arrive between 9:30 pm and 10 pm after these four incredible days exploring northern Vietnam.
