ITINERARY:

JASMINE CRUISE 2 DAY - 1 NIGHT PROGRAM

Day 1: Hanoi – Jasmine Halong Cruise
+ 8.30AM: Pick up at your hotel in Hanoi and depart for Halong Bay - the World Heritage Site on a comfortable 3 and a half hour drive by private vehicle passing the nice countryside of the Red River Delta. As scheduled, there will be a short stop in the mid way to relax. On the way, you may want to have some more stops for taking photo of the local people working on the rice-fields, etc...

+ 12.00-12.30PM: On arrival in Halong pier, Enjoy a warm welcome aboard the Halong Jasmine, and sit back and drink in the spectacular vista during our passage into this magical bay.

Once lunch has been served and taste buds and tummies thoroughly satisfied, we weigh anchor near a secluded beach. Take a short trek to a nearby summit to enjoy the panoramic view of the bay with Jasmine’s golden sails arcing elegantly against the skyline before splashing down for a swim, or recline on Jasmine’s wicker sun loungers on our expansive wooden sundeck. Later that afternoon, we visit a local fishing village where you have the opportunity to interact with some of the more colorful locals who have lived and fished in the bay for almost three generations. At sunset, slip into a kayak or board a bamboo row boat to explore water tunnels and discover pristine coral reef in a scenic lagoon setting. Once back on board the ship, watch the shimmering sun slip down the sky as you sip expertly-blended cocktails as an aperitif for Jasmine’s extravagant evening meal.

Day 2 : Jasmine Halong Cruise - Hanoi
Greet the new day with some Tai Chi exercises as the sun rises once more over the bay. Enjoy an elegant continental breakfast before we visit a beautiful limestone grotto to admire its many unique rock formations. Then it’s back to the boat to form your final lasting impression of Halong Bay’s awe-inspiring beauty as we cruise back to the dock. Time to say Goodbye. Transfer back to Hanoi.
