Top Cat Ba Outback Tours

Whether you’re pressed for time or on a budget, see more of Halong Bay and Lan Ha Bay in less time on this day cruise. You’ll visit a fishing village, kayak through rock arches to explore lagoons and caves, and stop at two gorgeous beaches, including Ba Trai Dao Beach. Along the way, soak up spectacular scenery and enjoy a delicious lunch with bottled water.

Starting from Cat Ba island means a longer cruise and a less-crowded experience than many Halong cruises. This small-group package, with breakfast, dinner, and two lunches included, starts in the morning of Day 1 (on a day junk) and finishes in the middle of the afternoon of Day 2. You’ll visit a floating fishing village, Dark Cave, Bright Cave, Dau Be Island, and more, and kayak through Ba Ham Lake.

Marvel at Vietnam's incredible natural world during this kayaking adventure around the island of Cat Ba. Paddle around the bay at sunset to observe local fishers at work and enjoying their dinner break. Under the guidance of locals, travel to the home of bioluminescent plankton. Swim or kayak among the stunning glowing masses during this incredible experience, without the inconvenience of an overnight trip.

We are a local Ha Giang team, born and raised in these mountains and we live to share the real Ha Giang with travellers. Unlike big companies based in Hanoi, our guides are from the ethnic villages you’ll visit. We know every curve of the Ma Pi Leng Pass, every secret viewpoint, and every hidden café in Dong Van. Our Ha Giang Loop tour isn’t a copy-paste itinerary, it’s a journey through our home. You’ll ride through breathtaking landscapes, visit minority villages few tourists ever see, enjoy authentic meals cooked by local families, and share “happy water” while hearing stories from real people of the region. You can choose to ride your own motorbike or sit back with an experienced Easy Rider. Either way, you’ll experience Ha Giang safely and deeply with genuine local insight and unforgettable scenery.
