Verdure Lotus Luxury Cruise | Lan Ha Bay 2 days 1 night

8:00 AM - 8:30 AM: Our driver will pick you up from your hotel in Hanoi’s Old Quarter or at the Opera House (if your hotel is located outside the Old Quarter). We will depart for Halong City.

11:30 AM – 12:00 PM: Arrival at Tuan Chau Harbor, have a short rest, then hop on a tender to reach the Verdure Lotus Cruise and begin our cruise. While sipping on a welcome drink, our cruise manager will fill you in on the details and safety protocols. After that, settle into your cabin.

1:00 PM: Let's indulge in a delightful lunch as Verdure Lotus Cruise sets sail into Lan Ha Bay, which neighbors Halong Bay but is quieter with fewer tourists. We'll cruise past famous spots like Finger Islet, Candle Islet, and a sea of uniquely shaped limestone towers and islands.

3:30 PM: Time for some kayaking to explore the Tra Bau floating village or take a refreshing swim.

5:00 PM – 6:30 PM: Head back to the Verdure Lotus for a fun Cooking Class and capture the moment with some photos. Then, unwind with "Happy Hour" – we've got special promotions on drinks at the bar.

7:00 PM: The evening treat awaits with a local dinner served by our on-board catering staff. The night view of Lan Ha Bay is nothing short of incredible.

9:00 PM: Post-dinner, dive into our squid fishing program or just kick back on the sundeck, soaking in the bay's nighttime vibes.
