Day 1: Hanoi, Cat Ba Island, Trekking in Cat Ba National Park (L/D)
Your Cat Ba tour guide will pick you up from your hotel in the Hanoi Old Quarter area at 7:30AM, at which point you will be transferred to Hai Phong City. After 10:30AM, you will arrive to the harbor at which point you will get on a speed boat to travel to Cat Ba Island. Once having arrived, a car will take you via the Cat Ba National Road to Cat Ba Town. You will then check-in to the Cat Ba Ecolodge and have lunch in the restaurant.
Following lunch, you will trek to Butterfly Valley. It will take around 40 minutes on a single trail, which in the past was used by locals to carry fresh water. At the end of the trek is the small and beautiful village of Liên Minh, which is quite isolated from the main island. You will visit one local family with whom you will enjoy a small break, before heading back the same way to the lodge. Your day will later conclude with dinner in the restaurant, before you spend the rest of your evening relaxing and spending the night in a bungalow.
Day 2: Lan Ha Bay, Hanoi (L)
Your day will begin at 7:00AM with breakfast at your hotel, after which a car will pick you up to take you to Beo Harbor where you will get on a boat and cruise to Lan Ha Bay. Your boat will visit floating fishing villages where you can see the daily lives of fisherman all year around, before you eventually pause at Cam Lagoon where you will be welcome to enjoy some swimming.
As midday arrives, it will be time for you to savor a delicious set-menu lunch on board your boat. You will then keep cruising to Hang Ca, kayaking through Dark Cave, Bat Cave, and Bright Cave. There you have chance to visit the less-accessed areas, and after 2 hours' kayaking, your boat will bring you to Three Peaches Beach to swim, snorkel, or relax. Following this leisure time your tour guide and car will take you back to Hanoi, where you will arrive between 7:00PM and 7:30PM.
