Taliya Lan Ha Bay Day Cruise – One Perfect Day on the Water
🧭 Travel Route
Hanoi → Tuan Chau Harbour (Halong) → Halong Bay → Lan Ha Bay (Dark & Bright Cave, Ao Ech) → Tuan Chau → Hanoi
From the early calm of Hanoi, you slip into a highway limousine and watch city streets fade into rice fields, factory towns and fishing villages. At Tuan Chau Harbour, the sleek white silhouette of your Taliya day cruise waits, crew ready with a welcome drink and big smiles. As you sail past the famous silhouettes of Halong Bay toward quieter Lan Ha Bay, lunch becomes a gently moving feast of flavors and views.

Cabin & Space Selection

You’ll find airy indoor lounges, shaded outdoor seating, jacuzzis and mini golf on the upper deck—perfect whether you love sun or prefer to relax in the breeze. Families appreciate the wide open deck where kids can move safely, while couples often claim a quiet corner rail to watch Lan Ha’s cliffs drift by in peace.
👋 Farewell Line
By the time you’re back at your hotel in Hanoi, your camera is full and your shoulders have dropped a little—one perfectly curated day at sea, wrapped around your wider Vietnam trip package without any packing or hotel changes needed.
The day begins in Hanoi’s soft morning light and unfolds into a full sweep of sea air, limestone peaks and sunset skies before you return to the city at night.
✨ What You’ll Experience
Your driver collects you from your Hanoi hotel and you sink into a comfortable limousine seat, watching scooters and street stalls slowly give way to countryside. At Tuan Chau Harbour, you step on board the Taliya Lan Ha Bay Day Cruise: bright decks, wide windows, jacuzzis and lounges that feel instantly relaxing. As you sail, a generous lunch is served while the classic silhouettes of Halong Bay slide past toward Lan Ha’s calmer, less crowded channels. You spend the heart of the afternoon close to the water—bamboo boat gliding through a cave into a hidden lagoon, then kayaking and swimming in a quiet bay that feels far from any city. A cooking class and sunset party on the sundeck close the loop before you drive back to Hanoi under the evening lights, tired in the happiest way.
Your shared limousine collects you in Hanoi; you settle in with the morning light streaming through the window as the highway unfurls toward the coast.
Relax on the expressway, dozing, chatting or scrolling as rice paddies, small towns and glimpses of the sea drift past.
Arrive at Tuan Chau Harbour and step aboard Taliya; the crew greets you with a welcome drink and safety briefing while you take in the airy lounges and sundeck views.
Enjoy a leisurely buffet or set-menu lunch as the ship glides past limestone towers, each course arriving with a slightly different angle of Halong and Lan Ha’s karsts outside the window.
Transfer to a bamboo boat and drift through the cave area into a sheltered lagoon, listening to the soft echo of paddles and distant birds against sheer rock walls.
At Ao Ech or a similar calm bay, slip into a kayak or straight into the sea; paddle between cliffs, float on your back and feel how still the world becomes away from the main routes.
Back on board, join the chef to roll Vietnamese spring rolls, laughing over uneven shapes and tasting them fresh and hot from the pan.
Head up to the sundeck for the sunset party; sip a drink, snack on light treats, try mini golf or simply lean on the rail as the sky turns gold and then pastel above the bay.
Return to Tuan Chau Harbour as the lights along the shoreline begin to glow, taking a last slow look at the silhouettes of the islands behind you.
Your limousine delivers you back to Hanoi’s Old Quarter; you step out with salty hair, a full camera roll and the sense of having slipped away for a day-long holiday inside your Vietnam trip.
