Your journey begins at Tuan Chau Marina with a warm welcome aboard 'Violet'. The ship then sails into the remote waters of Bai Tu Long Bay, a quieter and less-visited extension of Halong Bay, renowned for its serenity, pristine scenery, and dramatic limestone karsts. Join a short welcome presentation by the cruise director introducing the Halong and Bai Tu Long bay regions, offering insight into the legends and local traditions. Then, enjoy your free time on the terrace deck or your private balcony as the ship glides deeper into the bay, revealing its unspoiled beauty. In the afternoon, the first excursion takes place in the Tra San area, where you explore calm waters by kayak, weaving through limestone cliffs in one of the bay's most peaceful corners. Back onboard, savor an à la carte dinner in the restaurant before the ship moors overnight in this tranquil area. Meals: Lunch, Dinner.
Early risers are greeted with freshly brewed coffee and warm pastries, followed by a Tai Chi session on the terrace deck. Explore the prehistoric Thien Canh Son Cave after breakfast. A gentle hike of around 100 steps leads through impressive stalactites and stalagmites, revealing the bay's ancient geological history, before you are rewarded with a scenic viewpoint at the cave exit. Visit the Vung Vieng floating fishing village, where local families engage in fish and oyster farming. A local host shares insight into daily life in this unique waterside community. Back onboard, lunch is served and the ship sails westward. The early afternoon features an engaging onboard workshop or presentation hosted by the crew, offering deeper insight into the region's culture and heritage. Time is then set aside to unwind at a secluded beach. Swim in emerald waters, enjoy sundowner drinks with canapés, or simply take in the bay as blue hour settles over the limestone scenery. After dinner, gather for a cozy movie night before ending your day in comfort. Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner.
Begin your final morning with warm coffee and pastries, followed by a gentle meditation session among the bay's limestone islands. Breakfast is served in the restaurant.
