Offered in: English

This journey takes you from a luxury cruise through Ha Long Bay and Lan Ha Bay to the wild forest trails of Cat Ba National Park, combining two completely different sides of northern Vietnam in one trip. You'll learn hands-on skills like making Vietnamese spring rolls with an onboard chef, witness a traditional lion dance welcome, and trek to Ngu Lam and Cao Vong Peak for panoramic views few visitors ever reach. With caving, kayaking, mountain trekking, and free time to explore Cat Ba's beaches and nightlife at your own pace, it's an ideal fit for active travelers and small groups seeking both natural scenery and authentic local culture, without being rushed through a checklist of stops.
