Flawless Private Organization from Hanoi to Ha Long Bay

Our 7-day private journey through Hanoi, Pu Luong, Ninh Binh, and Ha Long Bay exceeded every expectation. Waking up to the mist over the rice terraces in Pu Luong and sailing into Lan Ha Bay on our balcony suite cruise felt truly magical. Our guide Minh was encyclopedic and warm.

Unforgettable Family Holiday in Northern Vietnam

Traveling as a family of four from Melbourne, having a private Mercedes van and flexible start times made all the difference. The bamboo rafting in Pu Luong and Trang An sampan ride in Ninh Binh were our kids' favorite memories.

Traveler Questions & Concierge Answers

Frequently Asked Questions & Q&A (2)

Q: Is the walking in Pu Luong suitable for active seniors in their late 60s, or can it be adjusted?

Asked by Helen W. (Sydney, Australia)

A (Linh Nguyen — Senior Travel Curator): Yes! Because this is a 100% private tour, we can customize the trekking distance in Pu Luong from a gentle 2km flat village stroll to a 10km valley hike, or replace walking with scenic electric-cart and bamboo-raft experiences.

Q: Can you accommodate strict gluten-free and pescatarian dietary requirements throughout the 7 days?

Asked by Claire Dubois (Paris, France)

A (Minh Tran — Head of Guest Concierge): Absolutely. On the 5-star Ha Long Bay cruise and at all boutique lodges in Hanoi, Pu Luong, and Ninh Binh, our team pre-registers gluten-free, vegetarian, or allergy-specific menus with the executive chefs prior to your arrival.
