Tour guide and driver picked us up from hotel around 7:45 and picked up in somewhere also, we arrived in Ha long bay harbor around 11:30 and go to a beautiful traditional cruise. We had lunch after that and cruise moving to the cave. After 1 hour, we arrived Thien Cung cave and we finished lunch 15 minutes before, we climbed to this cave after 20 minutes and it is really beautiful, the weather in the cave so cool and very nice. I took many photos from there. We returned and continue my trip, we went kayaking and enjoyed Sun set party on board. Returned harbor about 17:30. Then we return Ha Noi about 20:30 p.m. It was a long day and inspirational trip to us. I would like to recommend this trip to you.

As the most famous tourist destination in the North that is Ha Long bay, it is one of the 7 wonders of the world, I did not have longer time in Ha Noi and had to choose 1 day trip only. Ha long bay is beautiful in September, we arrived there about 12:00 at noon, check in on board and visiting caves and return boat for lunch. Food was so nice and delicious, we had set menu for both seafood and Vietnam cuisines. Tour guide and his name's Thang, he has good English and explained the name of each islet very clearly for the meaningful. In the afternoon, we do kayaking and some activities on the bay then return harbor for bus waiting and took us to Ha Noi. Tour end around 20:10. We loved this trip and will recommend it to our friends.
