Imagine leaving Hanoi after breakfast, watching scooters and street stalls fade into rice fields, riverbanks and misty hills as your luxury van glides towards Halong Bay. By late morning, you’re checking in at Tuan Chau Marina, sipping welcome tea, then boarding Orchid Classic Cruise Halong Bay via a short speedboat ride — your floating boutique hotel for the next two or three days.

Soon after lunch in the elegant restaurant, the ship slips away from the main harbour, gliding through the karsts of Halong Bay into the softer channels of Lan Ha Bay — water turning glassy, traffic thinning out, the noise of the world replaced by the quiet splash of the hull and the occasional call of a seabird. An afternoon of kayaking in hidden corners like Dark & Bright Caves or Ba Trai Dao, sunset over Tra Bau and a fusion dinner in a French-meets-Oriental dining room make your first day feel both cinematic and deeply calm. 

On the Orchid Classic Cruise 2 Days 1 Night program, you enjoy this highlight loop plus an early-morning Tai Chi session and a guided walk through Trung Trang Cave on Cat Ba Island, before cruising back to Tuan Chau for your return to Hanoi by mid-afternoon. With Orchid Classic Cruise 3 Days 2 Nights, the story deepens: a full day on a day-boat to Viet Hai Village, cycling or e-cart through a hidden valley extra kayaking and swimming near Ba Men Temple, then another quiet sunset and starlit night in the bay. 

Throughout both itineraries, ViettrendTour weaves everything into a seamless Vietnam tour: private transfers , personalised cabin choices, dietary notes handled in advance, and optional extensions to Hanoi, Ninh Binh or Lan Ha Bay Cruise — Limestone Silence, Closer to the Water so your vietnam trip package flows without friction.
