Halong Bay Dream by Sharing Seaplane - 01 Day

8:00 AM: Pick up at your hotel (in the Hanoi Old Quarter). Enjoy 3-hour drive from Hanoi to Halong Bay. Your journey will pass the series of villages and rice fields in Red River Delta. Have a stop for drink and restroom. Continue your driving, arrive at the harbor around noon, get warmly welcomed at reception.

Get on the seaplanes. A scenic flight is really the only way to truly appreciate Halong Bay’s magnificent seascape of nearly 2,000 jungle-clad limestone pillars reaching up from the green waters, all spread over an area of 2,000 square kilometers.

With a water takeoff and landing from Tuan Chau Island Marina, our 25-minute sightseeing flight takes in the highlights of UNESCO-listed Halong Bay, providing a completely different perspective than from a cruise ship. From the air, the islands appear as mountain ranges, resembling the undulating body of a dragon, the meaning of “Halong” in Vietnamese.

Our latest series Cessna Grand Caravan 208B-EX Amphibians are outfitted for a maximum of 12 passengers, ensuring that everyone can enjoy superb views.

After 25 minute flight, land on the bay and transfer to the day cruise.
