The adventure

A city of Parisian charm and grace with an Asian edge, Hanoi is an enthralling blend of east and west and a rising star in Southeast Asia. Check out the local cuisine on a street food tour and visit the Hanoi Food Culture restaurant, a G Values Fund Project. Next, visit stunning Halong Bay and overnight on a junk boat (a traditional Asian vessel) while cruising among the bay's 3,000 islands that rise dramatically from the emerald waters. Get a closer look by cruising the waters in a kayak or dive right in for a refreshing swim.

◆Arrive by 2:00pm for an insiders perspective of Hanoi's markets on an included Street Food Tour.
◆Drive out to Ha Long city and board a traditional "junk" boat. Explore the stunning bay, learn about the local legends, and enjoy magnificent meals.
◆After spending the morning aboard the boat, head back to Hanoi. Tour ends on arrival at the start hotel in Hanoi at approximately 5:00pm.
