Lan Ha Bay Cruise
Lan Ha Bay is a less crowded alternative to Halong Bay, offering a similar landscape, with abundant limestone karsts and pristine sandy beaches. The significant difference lies in the fewer boats, leading to fewer tourists. This is an excellent choice for those seeking a more relaxed, crowd-free experience.
Bai Tu Long Bay Cruise
Bai Tu Long Bay, often dubbed as ‘The Road Less Traveled’, serves as another choice for those looking to venture beyond the typical tourist routes. An extension of Halong Bay, this area remains a largely undiscovered jewel. With fewer tourists, the area has less pollution and the water maintains its clarity.
