Day-by-day itinerary

DAY 1 · Boarding + Halong Bay

Hanoi → the bay marina → Halong Bay

Boarding takes place at midday at the bay marina. Once the vessel clears the harbour, lunch is served while the limestone islands begin to appear on either side. The afternoon is built around two activities: kayaking or taking a bamboo boat through the karst formations at water level, and visiting a cave accessible directly from the water. By early evening the cruise reaches its overnight anchorage. Sunset plays out from the deck, and dinner follows — a full meal served on board as the bay settles into darkness around the boat.

08:00–08:30

Hanoi hotel pick-up (optional shuttle)

Transfer from your Hanoi Old Quarter hotel to the bay marina (~2.5h drive). The hotel ⇄ pier transfer is not bundled in the cabin rate.

12:00

Boarding & welcome

Check-in at the lounge, board the cruise, welcome drink and a safety briefing while the boat sets sail into the bay.

13:00

Lunch while cruising

A multi-course lunch served on board as the cruise heads into the limestone seascape.

15:30

Kayaking & swimming

Kayak or take a bamboo boat into a quiet lagoon, swim from a small beach, and visit a cave by the water.

18:30

Sunset on deck & dinner

Sunset from the top deck, a cooking demonstration or happy hour, then dinner and an overnight on the bay.

DAY 2 · Disembark

Morning on the bay → the bay marina → Hanoi

The second day is the itinerary's longest stretch on the water, moving deeper into the bay. The programme reaches a fishing village, which can be explored by bicycle, and continues to a hidden beach where guests can stop and walk the shoreline. A further cave is part of the afternoon's route. Meals continue full-board on the vessel. As evening approaches, the cruise returns to its anchorage position for a second night on the bay, giving guests a second chance to watch the light fade over the limestone towers.

06:30

Sunrise tai chi & breakfast

Early tai chi on deck and a light breakfast as the cruise begins its return.

08:30

Final visit

A last activity — a pearl farm, a cave, or a viewpoint climb — before checking out of the cabin.

10:30

Brunch while cruising back

Brunch on board as the boat cruises back toward the marina.

11:30

Disembark & return to Hanoi

Disembark at the bay marina and transfer back to Hanoi (expected arrival ~14:00–14:30).

    Cruise FAQ

    What does a typical day on Emeraude Classic Cruise actually look like?
    Boarding is at midday at the bay marina. The first afternoon involves lunch while underway, kayaking or a bamboo-boat excursion among the karst formations, and a cave visit by water. Sunset and dinner take place on deck. On the three-day itinerary, the second full day moves deeper into the bay — a fishing village by bicycle, a beach, and a further cave — before a second night at anchor. The final morning includes tai-chi on deck and a late-morning departure.
    What is included in the cruise rate?
    All meals on board are included — the cruise runs full-board from the midday boarding lunch through to breakfast on the final morning. Activities such as kayaking, bamboo-boat excursions, and cave visits are part of the standard programme. The transfer between Hanoi and the pier is arranged separately and is not included in the cabin rate.
    How do I get from Hanoi to the Halong Bay marina?
    The transfer between Hanoi and the pier is arranged separately from the cruise itself and is not part of the cabin rate. As a Hanoi-based DMC, we manage this transfer as part of the wider booking so that the logistics connect cleanly — guests are dropped at the marina in time for midday boarding and collected there on the return.
    What is the difference between the two-day and three-day itineraries?
    The two-day, one-night programme covers the core bay experience: an afternoon of kayaking and a cave, sunset and dinner on the water, and a morning return. The three-day, two-night itinerary adds a full second day that moves deeper into the bay, reaching a fishing village, a hidden beach, and a further cave, along with a second overnight and a tai-chi morning before late-morning disembarkation.
    Is kayaking included, and do I need experience?
    Kayaking and bamboo-boat excursions among the limestone formations are part of the standard programme on both itineraries. No prior kayaking experience is stated as a requirement — the activity takes place on the sheltered bay waters near the karst islands rather than in open sea conditions.
    Which cabin type is right for two travellers sharing?
    All three cabin categories — Superior, Deluxe, and Suite — accommodate up to two guests. The activities, meals, and itinerary are the same regardless of cabin choice. The distinction is in the on-board living space: Superior is the entry-level room, Deluxe offers a step up in finish and comfort, and the Suite is the most spacious and well-appointed option. For a two-night stay, the difference in cabin quality tends to be more noticeable than on a single night.
    What cave is visited on the cruise?
    The standard programme on both itineraries includes a visit to a cave accessible from the water, explored during the first afternoon on the bay. The three-day itinerary also includes a further cave as part of the deeper bay excursion on the second day. The specific names of the caves are not detailed in the programme notes available to us — our team can confirm the current routing when arrangements are confirmed.
    What is the fishing village excursion like on the longer itinerary?
    On the three-day, two-night itinerary, the second full day includes a visit to a fishing village, which is explored by bicycle. This excursion takes guests away from the boat and into the lived environment of the bay, before the programme continues to a hidden beach and a second cave.
    Can solo travellers book a cabin?
    The cabin descriptions specify that each category accommodates up to two guests — the rooms are sized and priced around double occupancy. A solo traveller can book a cabin but should expect that the rate reflects a room designed for two. Our team can advise on the practical implications when putting together a quote.
    Where does the cruise depart from?
    Emeraude Classic Cruise departs from the bay marina at Halong Bay in northern Vietnam. Boarding is at midday. The marina is the transfer endpoint when travelling from Hanoi, and the cruise returns to the same point at the end of the itinerary.
