Explore Hoa Lu, Trang An, and Mua Cave from Hanoi with cycling, a buffet lunch, a cave boat ride, and a 500-step viewpoint hike.

“Nice friendly guide, Dang. Good commam d of English and knowledgeable. He was a charm and delight. Thank you. Boat road was about an hour which was plenty (they had said two hours but i feel that would have been too long). Temples and walks very nice... More time here would have been better actually. Views were lovely. Be prepared for work out and sweat - but very worthwhile. Lunch was a buffet style free for all. Food looked like it had been sitting out and didn't look fresh so didn't risk having it. Went next door for coffee instead. Bike ride was fun too. Driver ok but don't sit…”

Cruise quieter Lan Ha Bay from Hanoi with kayaking, Cat Ba biking, local seafood, small groups, and a classic 10-cabin boat.

“This is a must do when in North Vietnam because of the geagraphic exclusiveness. Once you have experienced the clam and internetless day out in the sea, many other short experiences in nearby countries are not needed anymore. You won't top Lan Ha Bay. Way less busy than Ha Long Bay *as of now. I hope this doesn't get ruined by over tourism.”
