About this trip
Five days covering three of northern Vietnam's classic stops: Hanoi, Ha Long Bay and Ninh Binh. You spend a night on board a cruise in the bay, then head inland for a day exploring the limestone landscape around Ninh Binh.
It's a straightforward introduction to the region rather than a deep dive anywhere, moving from city to coast to countryside over a short span.
What you'll do
- Overnight cruise on Ha Long Bay
- Visit Bai Dinh Pagoda
- Explore Trang An's limestone karsts and waterways
- Time in Hanoi
- Short trip with a lot of ground covered — expect one base change most days
- Best suited to travellers who want a quick overview of the north rather than an in-depth stay in one place
