YOUR ITINERARY DAY 1 - HANOI Arrive in Hanoi and feel free to explore before your welcome meeting, but make sure you’re back in time to meet the group. After introductions, your CEO will review the details of your tour. Please note that normal check-in times apply at our start hotels, but you can usually store your luggage for the day if you arrive early. DAY 2 - HANOI / HA LONG Drive to Bai Chay harbour, the jumping off point for Ha Long Bay. Thousands of islands with intricate cave systems rise dramatically from the waters. Board a traditional junk boat at Ha Long Bay harbour and sail out onto serene waters for an overnight cruise. Sail past limestone karst mountains in the junk boat and stop to visit some of the islands and caves. In the evening, devour a seafood dinner, then opt to enjoy a drink on deck under the stars. DAY 3 - HA LONG/HUẾ Enjoy breakfast on board your junk boat before a morning sail back to the port. Drive back to Hanoi for a little more time to enjoy the city before boarding an overnight train. DAY 4 - HUẾ Arrive early to Hue, once the imperial capital of Vietnam. Tour this one-time capital city and UNESCO World Heritage site. See the walled fortress and former palace, which has many palaces, gateways, courtyards, and gardens to explore. The Forbidden Purple City (modelled on China's Forbidden City) inside the citadel was once home to the imperial family and was significantly damaged during the Vietnam War. While in the city, try some local Hue specialties such as banh khoai (Hue savoury pancakes), and banh bot loc boc tom thit (thin rice paper filled with meat and shrimp). Wash it all down with a Hue beer.
