Early risers can enjoy the serene morning view of the bay's landscapes with a cup of tea or coffee and fresh fruit. From the upper deck of the boat, the beauty of the rocky islands rising from the crystal-clear waters of the bay is breathtaking. The quiet is almost eerie; the birds singing and cicadas chirping onshore, along with the gentle lapping of the waves against the boat, provide the perfect soundtrack to accompany the sense of calm and the fresh, gentle breezes. Explore the Sung Sot (Amazing) cave from 8.00 to 9:00 then swim and relax at Titop beach. A brunch buffet will be served on the return cruise from 10:30 to 11:30, arriving back at the harbor by noon for the drive back to Hanoi. Check in at the hotel and have the evening free. Includes: Transportation, hotel in Hanoi, tour guide, breakfast and lunch. Day 12: Hanoi Departure
