Situated in the Tonkin Golf, Halong bay is one of the world's natural wonders - a bay with more than 3,000 islands, which time, wind and waves have sculpted into fantastic shapes. The best way to appreciate this magical scene is from a boat, cruising between these karst cliffs, which loom like fairy-tale castles, complete with rocky spires and hidden caves. The bay is dotted with tiny islands, pristine sandbanks on the turquoise water providing an excellent backdrop for swimming or just lazing about on the junk boat deck: The Halong Bay Cruises offers cruises of all types. Whether you board for an overnight on Halong Chinese Junk cruise, HuongHai junk, Baitho boat,  Dragon Pearl Cruise, Tropical sails or Emeraude Deluxe Cruise, you will have wide range of choices by which to explore stunning Halong bay with our Halong Bay Cruise Collections.
