Bai Tu Long Bay Cruise – Discover the Unspoiled Heritage
Experience an exclusive journey to the most peaceful corner of Halong. Our Bai Tu Long 1-day tour emphasizes privacy and authenticity, offering a quiet escape where the limestone karsts remain untouched by mass tourism.
Highlights of the Journey
- Mat Quy Islet (Monster Face Islet): A striking 30-35 meter high karst formation shaped by nature to resemble a distorted, monstrous head, offering a dramatic photo opportunity.
- Teapot Islet (Am Tich Islet): Located in the Bai Tu Long Bay area, this islet is known for its distinctive shape resembling a traditional Vietnamese teapot resting on the water.
- Thien Canh Son Cave: A must-visit stop featuring a hidden, massive cave within a lush island, offering panoramic views of the bay from its summit.
- Vung Vieng Fishing Village, located in the serene Bai Tu Long Bay, offers a unique glimpse into the lives of fishermen who have lived on the water for generations. The highlights of visiting Vung Vieng include navigating its “natural gate” (Hang Cao), exploring the floating school and pearl farms, and enjoying the quiet beauty of the surrounding karsts.
