Halong Bay & Thien Cung Cave (cruise tour) in Hanoi, Vietnam

Wednesday, January 15, 2014 0:17

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

When you plan a visit to Hanoi in Vietnam, do not forget to include Halong Bay (or also known as Ha Long Bay) which is the major tourist attraction and must to visit in your itinerary. Ha long Bay is situated in northern Vietnam, 170 km (105 mi) east of Hanoi.

“Ha Long” means “Bay of Descending Dragons” (Chinese: 下龍灣; Xiàlóngwān,Haa4 Lung4 Waan1) is recognized as one of the unique UNESCO World Heritage Site attractions as it is famous for its scenic ocean topography.

Since Halong Bay is located quite a distant from Hanoi city, it is easier to join local tour to Halong Bay. The whole journey takes about 4 hours ride through two lane streets from Hanoi city to Halong Bay or vice versa. There are different kinds of tour packages to Halong Bay which depend on your budget. You can choose to do with one day tour to Halong Bay or staying between 2 days or 3 days on cruise ship at Halong Bay.

There are many local tour agencies offering Halong Bay packages but there is a cruise company by the name of Alova Cruises.com which ensures the satisfaction quality and comfort level of every group boarding on Alova Cruise at Halong Bay. I noticed the Alova Cruise ships were newer and had maintained ships better than other cruise ships that I had seen along Ha long Bay during my trip there.

You would be surprised how strict regulations that the Vietnam Government has regulated to all cruise companies at Halong Bay as it is the most visited tourist attraction site in Vietnam. All visitors are strictly to put on life jackets while riding on the boats. Even, the number of passengers on boats and cruise ships are strictly controlled from being fined by the authorities. There was a forecast weather reported about the storm at night during my trip at Halong Bay thus, all the tourists weren’t allowed to stay overnight on the cruise ship. My initial tour was booked as 2 days 1 night with Alova Gold Cruise but in the end, it became a day tour at Halong Bay. The tour company was very reliable and refunded our money for overnight stay at the end of the tour.

It is hectic to take a day tour to Halong Bay since the journey from Hanoi to Halong Bay takes about 4 hours ride thus, it is highly recommended to join 2 days or 3 days trip to Halong Bay in order to enjoy fully the breathtaking view there. It was a day tour instead of 2 days at Halong Bay as we weren’t allowed to stay overnight on the cruise ships due to unexpected storm arrival thus, we only visited the beauty with natural formation of limestone cave which is known as Thien Cung Grotto (or also known as Heavenly Cave).
