hydrofoil trip to Cat Ba Island, we have some time to enjoy the quiet
town with beautiful beaches, fine sea food and beer. The next day is a
big challenge since we trek through jungle and have a chance to see
the panorama of Halong Bay from one of the mountain summits we would
conquer during the trek. After the trek we camp on a quiet beach to
round up an adventure day. The next day is great paddling time, as you
will paddle our unique route to explore Lan Ha Bay and continue to
Halong Bay where we will spend the last night on a deluxe overnight
junk. This tour offers flexibility in activity levels while still
combining the best of sea kayaking. It is a good tour for both novice
