Halong Bay 2 Days Itinerary For First-Timers
- Option 2: Taking an overnight cruise (2 days 1 night)
Planning a trip to Halong but still hasn’t decided where to go yet? You should surely know that there are a bunch of great things to do in Halong apart from cruising.
From beautiful sightseeing spots to mighty mountain ranges, modern amusement complex, and traditional pagodas, Halong has it all. Thus, the article below will suggest several interesting itineraries for 2 days exploring the best parts of Halong.
Option 1: Hotel + day cruise (4-8 hour day cruise)
From Hanoi, it takes you around 3 – 4 hours to arrive in Halong City. From distance, you can already see giant limestone formations rising above jade-green waters and enticing natural landscapes of the UNESCO-listed Halong Bay.
Check-in your hotel in Halong City and spend a little amount of time resting. In the afternoon, you can either choose to relax and take a dip under the cool water of the man-made Bai Chay Beach or free to take part in fun-filled activities in the Sunworld Halong Park .
From 6:00 pm onward, this is the most fantastic time for you to enjoy specialties and go shopping in the Halong night market. Wandering through a hundred of stalls, you can not only find great foods, especially grilled seafood but also souvenirs, handicrafts, and high-class items.
The best way to capture the spectacular seascapes of Halong Bay is to spend 1 day on a day cruise gliding through prominent landmarks.
Fighting Cocks Islet : In the heart of Halong Bay, this pair of distinctive karst islets looks like a rooster and a hen facing and showing love to each other. This unique formation has become the icon and most photographed spot of Halong Bay that you must check-in.
Sung Sot Cave : Located on Bo Hon Island, this must-see destination for every traveler is the biggest cave of Halong Bay, comprising a myriad of beautiful thousand-year-old stalactites and stalagmites. To explore the whole cave, you have to trek hundreds of stone steps. Covering a huge space (10.000m²), Sung Sot Cave is mysterious with a winding path led lighted by shimmering and magical neon lights.
Luon Cave : On the same Bo Hon Island, only 1km from Sung Sot Cave, Luon Cave is like a small tunnel leading you into the quiet and cool inner area. Tourists have an opportunity to kayak around the cave, admiring stunning scenery, touching limestone islands, and watching monkeys running on the mountain.
Thien Cung Cave: Thien Cung Cave is situated on Dau Go Island, 25m above the sea level. Climbing on the steep path under dense trees, you see Thien Cung Cave, as marvelous as heaven. The cave is spacious with a towering ceiling and massive stalactite blocks. It is reported as the wedding venue for the Dragon King and his wife, gathering many people and lasting for 7 days.
Titop Island : Titop Island is one of the most famous attractions in Halong Bay. The island has white-sandy crescent-shaped beaches, verdant greenery, and a majestic viewing platform for panoramic Halong Bay views. Additionally, water sports rental, freshwater bathrooms, and beverages are available on the island.
Cua Van Floating Village : This oldest floating village on Halong Bay is a great historic-cultural space for culture vultures. Travelers will understand more about local inhabitants’ lives, how people make ends meet, and see well-preserved small floating houses.
Tips: if you want to visit some of these attractive tourist sites, you can buy tickets at Tuan Chau International Cruise Port and start your journey on a day boat. Duration varies depending on the route you choose (at least 4 hours). The prices range from 240.000 – 290.000 VND/person.

For tourists who love a fulfilling experience of a cruise vacation, Halong Bay has no dearth of overnight cruise operators with well-reached itineraries. Undoubtedly, taking an overnight cruise vacation requires more time and budget but unforgettable memories will pay off.
You will have more time to relax, truly admire mesmerizing attractions, and join an array of activities such as exploring caves, rowing a bamboo boat to visit the floating village, kayaking , swimming , and playing water sports. More interestingly, entertainment activities onboard such as yoga, cooking demonstration, sunset party, BBQ dinner, squid fishing, and night movies also always keep you entertained.

Option 3: Hotel + Halong city tour
Transfer from Hanoi to Halong on the new highway.
Upon arrival at Halong City at noon, you will rest at the hotel to recharge your energy for the upcoming excursions. There are a lot of exciting things to do in Halong City.
Sunworld Halong Park: One of Halong’s best attractions is Sunworld Halong Park – a world-class entertainment complex that consists of several recreational areas, an abundance of thrilling games, and food courts. You can merely spend a day in this park to entertain yourself.
Bai Chay Beach: In the proximity of Sunworld Halong Park, Bai Chay Beach is a great spot for beach bums. The surrounding infrastructure and services are very developed and convenient.
Bai Tho Mountain: Alternatively, adventure lovers can challenge themselves climbing on the top of Bai Tho Mountain (only 5km from the city center). From here, you will be rewarded with majestic views of Halong Bay and take the best photos.
In the evening, back to Halong city and walk through the night market. Grab some food and bring home the best souvenir items. Some must-try dishes are pancakes with grilled chopped squid, “ngán”, and horseshoe crab.
Quang Ninh Museum: This morning, you will check-in Quang Ninh Museum , a new and well-known attraction in Halong City. Spreading over an area of 24.000m², the structure impresses tourists with thousand square meters of dark glass making it like a giant mirror. The museum displays whale skeletons, sailboat models, and many cultural identities. There is also a modern library inside the museum with more than 100.000 books.
Yen Tu Mountain: The sacred mountain is not only renowned for picturesque landscapes but also the Buddhist Capital of Vietnam. There is a 700-year-old Buddhist sanctuary with many pagodas, temples, and historical relics built on the mountain. Dong Pagoda at the peak of Yen Tu Mountain boasts the highest bronze pagoda on the mountain of Asia. The best way to see the entire view of Yen Tu Mountain is from the cable car.

Vietnam Experience 15 Day
The Vietnam Experience tour I went on was amazing. Our tour guide Bobby was great, so kind, caring and funny and always making sure group was comfortable and enjoying our experiences. I also have an allergy and Bobby made every effort to make sure all the food was accommodated to this so I could be included with the rest of the group and for this I am really grateful. All the activities we did were great and the accommodation we stayed in was amazing and was all in all a great, fast paced and exciting trip. However it wouldn’t have been nearly half as good without Bobby who’s cultural knowledge, upbeat humour and caring nature made my trip a truly unforgettable one ???? Bobby is an absolute credit to intro travel and is by far the best tour leader I’ve ever had on an Intro trip!

Mystique Vietnam Vacation In 13 Days by Realistic Asia
It was our third trip to Vietnam, before we were visiting it for a beach break, but for this time we decided to take and adventure trip in the mountains. We have heard a lot from other travelers about Sapa and Ha Long Bay and wanted to visit it. We were unconfident to arrange this trip by ourselves and decided to book it with Realistc Asia. It was a great decision for us. Our travel advisor Hien has recommended us this trip as we wanted to get a full insight into Northern Vietnam. We couldn’t expect more! We visited local villages, and the market in the mountains, met many interesting people. Personally I was blown away with the views in Mu Cang Chai, it is probably one of the most beautiful places I ever visited. For those who want to see rice terraces I recommend to go there. We got all what we wanted: adventures, less visited areas, beautiful sceneries and authentic experience. Hien, thank you so much for organizing everything! You are the best!

The Beauty of Northern Vietnam in 8 Days
The tour was perfectly planned, even though I booked it at very short notice. I made a mistake by choosing the wrong arrival date, yet the perfect solution was still found for me. I could ask questions continuously, and Ha (Evelyn) was able to answer all of them - thank you very much for that. Every day was well-organized, and the journeys from one place to another were very pleasant and comfortable. Dear Ha, thank you for the enjoyable time and your dedication during my trip. I would recommend this tour to anyone planning a group trip through Northern Vietnam.
Northern Vietnam Adventure In 12 Days - Private Tour
My bf and I had a wonderful time in Vietnam. We really didn't think Vietnam was such an interesting place. Even though we only visited the north of the country, the culture and people here are amazing. We hope that in the future we will have the opportunity to return and explore more of this country.

What people love about halong bay tours from hanoi.
It was the first time that I travelled Solo solely for the purpose of travel and turned out to be a trip of lifetime! Of course Intrepid tour leader - Cong, operated like clockwork, thought ahead and no derailment of trip in anyway at all! But what made it fantastic was the group of people who came on this trip and I am sure each one of us will share the same sentiment. Look forward to many more…
I was really apprehensive about going on my first solo trip, however, after meeting Bobby on day 1, I knew the trip was going to be great. Bobby is an absolute credit to Intro and to Vietnam. We really hit the jackpot in getting him as a tour guide! He’s caring, kind, patient and fun to be around. He went out of his way to make everyone feel included and comfortable, giving options for additional activities and recommendations in our free time. He also made himself available at all times. Having such a knowledgeable expert of Vietnam history, culture and language just made this trip exceptional. The tour itself was filled with a variety of places and activities. The accommodations were all great and varied making the experience even more unique. This trip is not for the faint hearted. You’re on the go a lot, but in return you see so much of Vietnam.
Great service and excellent quality!

More About Overnight Cruises
As one of the hotspots in the Northern region of Vietnam, Halong Bay always welcomes a large number of visitors every year. Although visitors can view the bay from many locations in the city, Halong bay cruises will bring a very different experience with plenty of interesting activities.
Cruises in Halong bay are diverse in duration, itineraries, facilities & services, as well as prices. No matter if you have just a few hours or days for the cruise, no matter if you love hiking to the top of the limestone island to get the panoramic view or just simply lazing on the isolated beach for hours, no matter if you love a traditional small junk or a giant modern ship with a bunch of recreational activities, Halong Bay Cruise promises to serve you at its best.
Cruise duration
Although some cruises offer up to 4-night durations, the three most popular durations are day cruises, 1-night, and 2-night cruises.
- Day cruises are most economical and suitable for travelers having limited time and a low budget. A day trip lasts for 4 to 8 hours on the bay but the program covers the most signature attractions that give travelers the best glimpse of the Heritage Site.
- 1-night cruises are the choices of the majority of visitors due to the reasonable price and time. If day cruises are not enough and 2-night ones are a bit too much and expensive, 1-night cruises provide enough activities and a less-rushed program for a relaxing trip.
- A 2-night cruise is ideal for those who have a loosen budget and generous time. This is the most costly duration of the three. However, travelers have a chance to visit the deeper parts of Halong Bay which are untouched, pristine, and less touristy.
While searching for cruises, you will see not only Halong bay but also Lan Ha Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay. You may know that Halong Bay has been recognized as World’s Natural Heritage Site by UNESCO twice in 1994 and 2000. That makes Ha Long Bay more renowned, visited by a lot of travelers worldwide, and somehow gradually commercialized a bit.
Neighboring the heritage bay, Lan Ha Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay are two smaller bays that are later discovered and well-known thanks to their similar karst islands and poetic landscapes.
A cruise itinerary will usually attach to one of three bays. Based on your preference, if you are after an active program with spectacular and bustling hotspots, Halong Bay is a must. If you are looking for more relaxation and a less crowded itinerary, or you want to have a new experience, Lan Ha Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay would never let you down.
- Attractions: Sung Sot Cave, Luon Cave, Tung Sau Pearl Farm, Titop Island, Me Cung Cave, Heaven Palace Grotto, Cua Van Village, Trinh Nu Cave, etc.
- Cruises: Paradise Elegance, Ambassador, Pelican, Athena, Signature, Paradise Sails, Adela Boutique, Stellar, etc.
- Attractions: Dark-Bright Cave, Tra Bau, Ao Ech, Viet Hai Village,
- Cruises: Elite of the Seas, Orchid Trendy, Heritage Binh Chuan, Scarlet Pearl, Mon Cheri, Stellar of the Seas, Capella, La Casta Regal, Rosy, Sena, etc.
Bai Tu Long Bay
- Attractions: Thien Canh Son Cave, Vung Vieng Fishing Village, Cong Do, Cap La, Cong Dam, Hon Co Island, etc.
- Cruises: Dragon Legend, Swan, Paloma, Dragon Pearl, etc.
Facilities & services
If Halong Bay day cruises have a spacious public area of sundeck or dining room for sightseeing and relaxing, overnight cruises provide no shortage of facilities and services like a floating hotel.
You will stay in well-equipped cabins which come with a large window or balcony. Not only comfy bed and bathroom amenities, but the cabin also has Satellite TV, minibar, air-con, safe box, bathtub or jacuzzi, etc. After joining a bunch of activities, cabins onboard bring you the utmost comfort and convenience like home.
Food and drinks are served on the cruise. Unlike all meals included in the tour price, drinks could be ordered and charged based on usage. Apart from sitting in an intimate restaurant to enjoy meals, you can request room service or order drinks into your room to spend time with your loved ones from the private balcony.
Besides, Halong Bay cruises more and more focus on varied entertainment activities onboard. Therefore, you can find cruises with mini golf, swimming pool, jacuzzi pool, spa, modern gym, art gallery, club, etc. The more luxurious the cruise is, the more facilities and services it provides.
Experiences on Halong Bay cruises
There is much more than just watching the bay from a cruise. Halong Bay Cruises offer plenty of on-board and off-board activities. On-board activities are often the same while off-board ones can be changed on different days in a tour. All the activities are optional, thus you can feel free to enjoy your trip with the utmost relaxation.
Onboard activities
Watch Halong Bay from top deck
All Halong Bay cruises have a spacious sundeck where you can kick back on the sun loungers and witness the stunning scenery of Halong bay. It can be the serenity in the early morning, the splendor of the sunset, or the shimmer when all the ships are lit at night. Every moment on the cruise gives you a special view of Ha Long Bay.
- Join Sunset party
What could be better than watching the sunset, chatting, and sipping some drinks together? Sunset parties usually include Happy Hour - Buy 1 get 1 free promotion for drinks and some complementary finger food on the top deck.
Learn how to make a Vietnamese traditional dish

Fish squid at night
Simple technique but patience is needed for catching squid like a local. This is one of the interesting experiences you should not miss on a Halong Bay cruise.
Experience Taichi
Early birds would love to follow the gentle movements of the crew in the Taichi session in the morning. Refreshing your body and mind with a quick exercise in the middle of the heritage bay should be on your bucket list.
Offboard activities
- Discover caves and grottoes
There are nearly 2,000 islands and islets in Halong Bay and plenty of them have a cave or grotto to visit. Some caves are giant and dry inside while some are small and can only be visited by kayak or sampan boat. Visitors have a chance to know the mysterious legend of Halong Bay and unique formation of the caves here.
Kayak on the bay
Kayaking on the vast ocean is a must. Gently paddle a kayak around rocky islands and feel the amazing tranquility of the bay, you will never regret it.
- Swim at the beach
Halong bay is perfect for swimming thanks to the very calm seawater. If you choose Halong itinerary, Titop and Soi Sim beaches are the two most beautiful and biggest beaches for swimming. If you choose Lan Ha Bay or Bai Tu Long Bay, you can swim in many untouched water areas or some smaller natural beaches.
- Climb to the mountain
If watching the bay from the top deck of the cruise is not enough, you may not want to miss the panoramic view of Halong Bay from the top of the mountain. This activity could be found in the excursion to Titop and Soi Sim islands.
Visit a fishing village
There used to be thousands of households living and fishing on Halong Bay for a living. Visiting a fishing village is a way to learn about their tough life on the ocean. Travelers can visit Cua Van, Ba Hang, Vung Vieng fishing village, etc.
Price range
Halong Bay Cruises could be divided into 3 main categories: Luxury (5*), Deluxe (4*), and Superior (3*). You need from US$100-130 per person for a 1-night trip on a Superior cruise. Deluxe cruises cost from US$130-160 per person per night. For Luxury category, Halong Bay cruise costs you from US$160 up to US$400 per person.
Price may change upon the regulation of Halong management board or vary in season. Low season is from May to September with more promotions. Price in the high season from October to April is often higher and cruises are more quickly occupied. Therefore, you should book early in the high season to ensure your favorite cruise is available.
