If you are considering a visit to Halong Bay and have some extra time, a three-day and two-night Halong Bay Cruise Tour provides the optimal experience. This itinerary allows for the exploration of secluded and far-flung destinations, including those in Bai Tu Long Bay and Lan Ha Bay in addition to Halong Bay. Choosing a three-day option over a two-day trip results in more opportunities for activities such as kayaking, swimming, cycling, trekking, and seeing more for a better value. If traveling with children, a three-day trip may be less stressful as it allows for more relaxation time between transfers to and from Hanoi.
