In the morning, you’ll be warmly welcomed by the crew. Breakfast will be served in our cosy restaurant while the boat moves deeper into Cat Ba Island. Don’t be surprised by the superb nature of this area. Arriving at Viet Hai dock, you’re advised to take a leisure bicycle ride along the water front and through a stone tunnel to Viet Hai village, which’s well-known for its traditional houses and residents, and finally pay a visit to the local primary school.
After this, you will cycle back and board the junk. During our cruise to Ba Ham Lake, lunch is served. Then let’s take a kayak tour through water tunnels.
2. If the weather is not so good (strong waves often prevent cruising to Viet Hai Village)
