I booked two night cruise tours to Halong Bay 2 years ago; include in: one night on Halong Bay and one night on Cat Ba Island. In the near future, I told to you the trip:
The first day, I arrived in Hanoi and booked at a hotel in Hanoi Old Quarter. In the early morning, I was picked up at my hotel then transfer to Halong Bay by car. The car is comfortable and cool because of air- condition. Arriving in Halong Bay, I and tourist are relaxed 2 hours then visit some place such as Vung Vieng floating village. I don’t believe that the local can live for a long time here
The second day I visit Cat Ba Island and my first impression is that Cat Ba Island is quite clean and beautiful landscape however it is not famous compare to Halong Bay, consist of caves, small and large shape limestones. Food is delicious and served as per your requests. I especially like Phở - a food is made from noodle mix beef and Vietnam traditional food.
I've been told that the 2nights boat trip is better than the Cat Ba Island but we have no regrets doing the 2 nights instead of 1 so far. If you want to book a trip like me, you can click http://indochinalegend.com/ or search Victory Star Cruise http://halongvictory.com/
