Two night's discovery Lan Ha Bay: The hidden worlds

Mysterious waters and myriads of islets and limestone formations create the spectacular seascapes and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Halong, which means “descending dragon," refers to legendary creatures sent down from the heavens to guard against invaders approaching from the sea. To protect the Vietnamese, the dragons belched out clusters of jewels to create an impenetrable barrier, which has since turned into over 2,000 beautiful limestone islets today dotting the bay.

Dedicated to well-being and serenity, this exceptional, off-the-beaten-track three-day, two-night’ journey named “Senses of Lan Ha” offers deep insights into Lan Ha Bay’s natural beauty, all while providing an active and holistic wellness experience onboard.

Day 1: Marina, Cat Ba Island (Viet Hai), Mooring

Embark on a unique journey, meeting at Heritage Line’s lounge at Tuan Chau Marina. A short speedboat transfer takes you to your luxurious floating home, the starting point for exploring the wonders of Lan Ha Bay and Cat Ba Island. Lunch is served in the almost 360-, light-flooded, elegant dining room as we sail deeper into the bay. Unwind on the terrace deck or private balcony, soaking in the surreal seascape.

Mooring close to Cat Ba Island, we step on land heading to Viet Hai Village, nestled in a picturesque valley surrounded by jungle-cladded mountains. Cycling through this valley offers wonderful insights into the isolated lives of the local inhabitants. The community, surrounded by thick forests and mountains and only accessible by sea, is self-sufficient, cultivating vegetables and fruits and fishing on the bay.

Returning to the ship, we sail to our overnight anchorage spot in Lan Ha Bay. Participate in a Vietnamese tea tasting, pamper yourself with a spa treatment, or enjoy some time in the sauna located in the ship’s vast spa area. After dinner offers, you can opt for a guided “Singing Bowl Meditation” in the wellness studio or simply relax under the stars on the terrace deck or your private balcony to embrace the serenity of this surreal landscape.

Day 2: Lan Ha Bay Mooring—Cat Ba National Park—Lan Ha Bay Mooring

Begin your day with a Tai Chi session on the terrace deck, offering a rejuvenating experience under the morning sun. During breakfast time, the ship sails toward the northern access port to enter Cat Ba Island and its national park. A short scenic bus ride takes you through the lush park and the starting point for a leisurely hiking outing to get to know this designated biosphere reserve better. The park hosts about 1,500 plant species, 78 avian, 20 reptilian, and 32 mammalian species, including deer, macaques, and civets.

You can spend the afternoon relaxing or swimming at a natural beach, exploring the calm area with kayaks, or enjoying spa treatments, a steam bath, or a sauna back on board. Make the most of this unhurried afternoon, creating enduring memories in Lan Ha Bay.

As the sun sets, the ship sails to its overnight mooring spot. Savour a multi-course dinner and join again our guided “Singing Bowl Meditation” or retire to your suite to unwind on your private balcony.

Wake up early for a Tai Chi session on the terrace deck. Traditional Vietnamese coffee, tea, and breakfast pastries await in the dining room for a first bite.

Explore this captivating marine landscape with cliffs stretching vertically out of the water, and you feel a sense of freedom while paddling through a labyrinth of jade-green water, rocks, and vivid tree-topped islets.
