Lan Ha Bay, a hidden gem located in the northeastern part of Vietnam, is often overshadowed by its more famous neighbor, Ha Long Bay. However, those who venture to this quieter, less touristy destination are rewarded with breathtaking landscapes, emerald-green waters, and an authentic Vietnamese experience.
One of the most convenient and enjoyable ways to explore Lan Ha Bay tour from Hanoi is through a one day tour organized by Good Morning Cat Ba, a trusted travel operator known for its excellent service and well-planned itineraries.
Lan Ha Bay is approximately 160 kilometers from Hanoi, making it an ideal destination for a day trip. The journey typically takes about 3 to 3.5 hours by road, followed by a short speed boat ride from Cat Ba Island to reach the bay. The trip from Hanoi to Cat Ba Island involves a bus journey to Got harbor in Cat Hai - Hai Phong, a coastal town, and then a speed boat to the island. This journey not only offers a scenic drive through the Vietnamese countryside but also provides a glimpse of local life in the rural areas.
The day begins early in Hanoi, where travelers are picked up from their hotels in old quarter or a designated meeting point by the Good Morning Cat Ba team. The comfortable and air-conditioned bus ensures a relaxing start to the day. The drive to Hai Phong takes around 2.5 hours, during which passengers can enjoy the changing landscapes, from bustling city streets to serene countryside vistas.
Upon reaching Hai Phong, the journey continues with a ferry ride to Cat Ba Island, the gateway to Lan Ha Bay. The ferry ride is a pleasant experience in itself, offering the first glimpses of the stunning seascape that awaits. The cool sea breeze and panoramic views set the tone for the adventure ahead.
Once on Cat Ba Island, travelers board a traditional wooden junk boat or a modern cruise ship, depending on the tour package. Lan Ha Bay is less crowded than Ha Long Bay, allowing for a more peaceful and intimate experience. The bay is dotted with nearly 400 lush, limestone islands and islets, many of which are uninhabited. The calm, clear waters of Lan Ha Bay are perfect for a variety of activities that make this tour truly special.
After a full day of exploration and relaxation in Lan Ha Bay, the tour concludes with a return journey to Hanoi old quarter. The ferry or speed boat ride back to Hai Phong and the subsequent bus trip to Hanoi offer time to reflect on the day’s experiences and to take in the final views of Vietnam’s beautiful landscapes.
