Package Overview

About This Package

Our shortest and lowest-priced Vietnam trip: three nights in Hanoi with a day on Ha Long Bay, for a long weekend or a first trip abroad on a budget. You stay in one 3-star hotel in the Old Quarter, where everything is within walking distance.

One day is Hanoi: the Temple of Literature, Hoan Kiem Lake, the Old Quarter on foot and the railway line between the houses on Train Street, with a water puppet show in the evening. One day is Ha Long Bay, on a day cruise with lunch, a cave visit and time on the water. The third day is free for the markets and cafes.

If you can spare one more night, Hanoi, Ha Long Bay and Ninh Binh puts you on an overnight cruise instead, which is the better way to see the bay.
