Renea Cruise Bai Tu Long Bay 3 Days 2 Nights.

Hanoi ➝ Halong International Cruise Port ➝ Cong Do – Cap La, Bai Tu Long Bay | First Glimpse of Quiet Karsts

Today you trade motorbike hum for the hush of open water as you journey from bright, busy Hanoi to a wooden Renea Cruise waiting among the limestone silhouettes of Bai Tu Long Bay.

✨ What You’ll Experience
You leave Hanoi in the soft morning light, watching rice paddies and riverbanks slip past your window as the city slowly falls away. At Halong International Cruise Port, the salty air and clustered boats signal a new rhythm, and the sight of the wooden Renea Cruise brings an instant sense of escape. Once on board, lunch unfolds as the junk glides into Bai Tu Long Bay, where karsts stand further apart and the water feels calmer than the busier core of Halong Bay. In the afternoon, you slide a kayak into the water near Cap La, paddling close to towering cliffs and slipping into quiet coves before returning, sun-warmed and salt-kissed, for sunset drinks on deck. Evening settles with a gentle vegetable-carving demo, a gracious dinner, and unhurried time for games, squid fishing or simply leaning on the rail to feel the bay breathing in the dark.

🕒 Your Day at a Glance

• 🚐 07:30–08:00 – A shared shuttle or D-Car collects you in Hanoi; as you leave the Old Quarter, you watch morning markets, schoolyards and green rice fields roll by on the 3–3.5 hour drive to Halong.
• ☕ 12:00 – Arrive at the Renea office in Halong International Cruise Port, check in, enjoy a short rest and feel the first touch of sea breeze while your guide handles formalities.

• 🍽️ 13:00 – Sit down to your first Vietnamese set-menu lunch in the cosy restaurant while Renea Cruise glides deeper into Bai Tu Long Bay, past scattered islets and fishing boats.

Cong Do – Cong Dam – Vung Vieng – Cong Do, Bai Tu Long Bay | Day-Boat Adventure & Floating Village Life

Dawn mist lifts off the water as you greet the day with slow movements on deck, then follow a quieter path deeper into Bai Tu Long Bay, where caves, lagoons and a floating village fill the hours without rushing them.

✨ What You’ll Experience
The bay is still when you wake, just a scatter of boats and a circle of grey-blue karsts around Renea Cruise. Tai Chi on the sundeck feels like moving inside a living painting, matched by the warmth of hot coffee and breakfast as the sun rises higher. A day-boat takes you to Cong Dam, one of the more remote corners of Bai Tu Long Bay, where clear waters and rock arches invite slow kayaking and refreshing swims. Back on board, lunch arrives just as you start to feel pleasantly tired, before a gentle cruise leads you toward Vung Vieng. Here, bamboo boats rowed by local fishermen carry you through narrow channels between floating houses, nets and small shrines, giving a glimpse into life lived almost entirely on water. By late afternoon, you are back on Renea Cruise, free to read, nap or chat on deck before another quietly joyful dinner and starlit evening on the bay.

🕒 Your Day at a Glance

• 🧘 06:00 – Step onto the sundeck for Tai Chi as the first light spills over Bai Tu Long Bay; each slow movement feels anchored by the stillness of the karsts around you.
• ☕ 06:30 – Sip coffee or tea and watch local fishing boats passing at a distance, their low engines and soft voices blending with the sounds of the bay.
• 🥐 07:00 – Enjoy breakfast in the restaurant – simple, familiar dishes with enough variety to please both cautious and adventurous eaters.
• 🚤 08:30–09:00 – Board the smaller day cruise and set off toward Cong Dam; along the way, your guide points out unusual rock formations and, weather permitting, the entrance to Thay Cave.
• 🛶 Late Morning – Launch kayaks into the calm waters of Cong Dam; paddle through hidden corners, slip beneath natural arches and, when the guide approves conditions, pause for a salt-tinged swim.
• 🍜 12:00 – Return to the main junk for a fresh, hot lunch, trading stories of near-misses and perfect photos while Renea Cruise continues its easy circuit.
• 🚣 13:30–14:30 – Arrive near Vung Vieng; step into a bamboo boat rowed by a local fisherman and glide slowly past floating houses, fish farms and simple shrines, feeling the quiet resilience of this water-based community.
• 🌅 15:30–17:30 – Come back to Renea Cruise, now anchored again close to Cong Do; spend the rest of the afternoon reading on a lounger, napping in your cabin or joining new friends on the sundeck.
• 🍲 19:00 – Sit down to another set-menu dinner, with the crew remembering your favourites from the night before, and the bay once again a soft, dark backdrop outside the windows.
• 🌌 20:30–22:00 – Choose a second round of squid fishing, a quiet drink on deck or a simple early night, letting the creak of wood and distant sounds of the bay send you to sleep.

✅ Inclusions: Breakfast, lunch & dinner on board; Tai Chi session; day-boat excursion to Cong Dam; kayaking & swimming (weather-permitting); bamboo boat visit to Vung Vieng floating village; English-speaking guide; entrance & sightseeing fees; onboard evening activities; insurance on board.

Cong Do – Thien Canh Son – Halong International Cruise Port – Hanoi | Cave, Cooking, and a Soft Return to City Life

Your final morning on the bay is a gentle goodbye: a last sunrise, a hidden cave, and one more shared meal before the bus carries you back toward the lights and energy of Hanoi.

✨ What You’ll Experience
Morning arrives quietly, the bay already familiar when you step onto the sundeck with a warm drink in hand. After Tai Chi and breakfast, Renea Cruise brings you to Thien Canh Son Cave, whose cool interior and strange, sculpted stalactites feel like a secret chamber above the water. Back on board, you pack and savour final glimpses of Bai Tu Long Bay from your cabin window before joining a light cooking class, learning how to roll fresh Vietnamese spring rolls you can confidently recreate at home. A farewell brunch is served as the junk returns slowly toward Halong International Cruise Port, giving you time to take those last photos from the rail. By early afternoon you are back on the road to Hanoi, the hum of the city growing louder as the karsts recede into memory.

🕒 Your Day at a Glance

• 🧘 06:00 – Join one last Tai Chi session on deck or simply watch the sky lighten over Bai Tu Long Bay, cup of coffee in hand and the air cool against your skin.
• 🥐 07:00 – Enjoy a relaxed breakfast, chatting with fellow passengers you now greet by name, as Renea Cruise begins its gentle course toward the morning’s cave stop.
• 🚤 07:30–08:30 – Take the tender to Thien Canh Son Cave; follow the path up and into its chambers, listening as your guide explains how water and time carved these formations high above the tide line.
• 🧳 08:30–09:15 – Return to Renea Cruise; pack your luggage, snap a last photo from your cabin window, leave your suitcase outside the door and keep a day bag with essentials.
• 🥢 09:45 – Gather in the restaurant for a light cooking demonstration; you practise filling and rolling fresh Vietnamese spring rolls, discovering how simple ingredients become something memorable.
• 🍜 10:15 – Enjoy a farewell brunch as the junk glides closer to Halong International Cruise Port, the karsts slowly flattening into low islands on the horizon.
• ⚓ 10:45–11:30 – Disembark by tender; say goodbye to the crew, wave once more at Renea Cruise and step back onto the pier, feeling both refreshed and slightly nostalgic.
• 🚐 12:00 – Board the return shuttle toward Hanoi; some guests sleep, others scroll through photos, while the countryside quietly reclaims the landscape.
• 🧳 14:30–15:00 – Arrive back in Hanoi, dropped at your hotel or agreed point, officially ending your Renea Cruise Bai Tu Long Bay 3 Days 2 Nights journey — though the rhythm of the bay tends to stay with you.
