After relaxation on boat, you will explore the largest cave and the most beautiful of Ha Long Bay - Surprising cave (Sung Sot Cave). The name of cave expresses the feeling of tourist when they see the cave at the first sight. Your day tour to Halong bay has more and more amazing things for you.
Next, we leave for Luon Cave which means creepy cave, the cave is famous for its green complex and in-mountain waters and islands. From outside, Luon cave looks like a giant bowl which is turned down to the sea surface. Because of the limited height, the only way to visit Luon Cave is by a bamboo boat or a kayak. Trying kayak is surely your memorable time because it is really interesting and easy to see the beautiful landscape in the Cave. Especially, when the tide rises, you have to stoop down to pass through the cave.
Moving to Titop island - the heart of Halong bay in this day tour. You will spend time to have a steep climb of a few hundred steps to the observation deck on the summit of Titop mountain that reveals a panoramic view of Halong Bay - it is still definitely a worth the effort. With the 360° view panorama you can enjoy the summit viewing and photographing of Halong bay. The island is also home to a lovely little beach of the same name. It’s an ideal stop-off point to get stuck into some beach activities such as: swimming, sunbathing, playing beach volleyball, etc.
Then, come back to the boat, it is time to head back harbor. While cruising, we have chance to contemplate the sunset on the cruise's rooftop during enjoying tea and fruits.
