When you were to go to sleep and wake in an Asian brushstroke landscape, Halong Bay Viet nam might be where you’d probably find yourself. Majestic and mysterious, Vietnam’s Halong Bay is actually a breathtaking location with over 2000 extraordinary jagged islands and islets increasing in the emerald waters of your Gulf of Tonkin. This superb panorama of limestone peaks enshrouded in mist, tumbling to the gently lapping sea and enclosing inside of its folds striking hidden caves is often a UNESCO Globe Heritage Web page.
The near-perpendicular pinnacles conceal the remains of numerous grottos and caverns, produced through millions of years ago via a complex course of action of erosion whereby water trickled by means of limestone cracks enlarging them to produce magnificent caves and resulting within the distinctive towers noticed these days.
About a 3 hour experience south of Hanoi, Halong Bay Vietnam draws a gradual stream of travelers year-round. Past the spectacular seascapes using a boat vacation as a result of the bay, an amazing array of venture travel possibilities are on offer you: Vacationers to Halong come to discover the impressive caves, among them the remarkable “Surprise Cave” with its three huge caverns, the place illuminated stalactites expand down to the touch the climbing stalagmites; to kayak; to experience a person of Vietnam’s most fascinating cultural capabilities – the floating villages, nestling inside sheltered bays, where homes are set atop barges and calendar year circular, inhabitants catch and cultivate fish.
Halong Bay’s amazing splendor, monumental scale and exceptional geomorphology allow it to be a person of Vietnam’s most spectacular experiences.

On the occasion of International Children's Day, June 1, 2011, Indochina Sails once again hosted a special party and made a donation to the Primary School of the Cua Van floating fishing village. The village is the largest on Halong Bay with a population of about 600 people. The primary school (floating, of course) comprises three small buildings where about 75 children are taught by 5 teachers.
In addition to organizing a party for the children, gifts including books, pens, school supplies and toys were also donated.
Indochina Sails has a long tradition of making donations of cash and equipment for the school. Last year, prompted by a staff member who asked: “What if we collect some money ourselves and try to fix up the school somehow to make it better for the kids?”, donations from all staff and the management of Indochina Sails were collected and new desks and chairs, along with a large assortment of school supplies were purchased and delivered to the school.
If any guest coming to Ha Long Bay would like to help the young students of the Primary School we suggest you bring donations such as pens, pencils, markers, crayons or chalk. Also, coloring books for the younger students and notebooks for the older ones. And what kid wouldn't like some sweets!

We booked the 2 days / 1 night stay on Indochina Sails, deluxe room, 2nd level. Our boat was the 'Indochina Sails Premium', which has only been sailing since Nov 2010, and is very new and luxurious. The rooms (24 rooms) were 5 star hotel rooms essentially, with big rain shower-head, spa bath, private A/C,private balcony (on upper level) and all the trimmings. The dining room, lounge and deck areas were spacious - good for mingling with others or for privacy. The food was great - a good selection at the buffet for lunch on Day 1 & brunch on Day 2. There was a set menu for dinner, Vietnamese and Western cuisine. It was filling and delicious. The staffs on the boat were super-friendly and very accommodating for any requests; they really tried to keep everyone entertained if you wanted it that way (Tai Chi, food carving demos). We also took advantage of the on-board massage therapist (extra cost), to keep up the pampering.
The trip itself was great. The boat sailed smoothly around Halong Bay with stops at Titop Island for spectacular views, a fishing village (which was a highlight) and the following morning we explored Surprise cave.
It was a fantastic trip with Indochina Sails - definitely not cheap, but if you are looking to spoil yourself and do it in grand style, this is without doubt the way to go! Transfers by minibus from Hanoi were included - it is a bit of a scary trip, but that is just Vietnam I'm afraid!
Halong Bay is spectacular and this trip was a fantastic way to see it! Our only regret was that we didn't book the 3 days / 2 nights instead.
