Scenic Halong Bay, with its emerald
seas, rests beautifully over the Red River Delta. This
region, "the Bay of the Descending Dragon", is dotted
with more than 3,000 mountainous islands, each with its
own unique landscape. The islands are famous for their
dolomite and limestone rock formations, many of which
have been given names. Natural grottos, fjords, land
tunnels and inlets are also common. During the Vietnam
War, numerous large ships sailed through the open waters
of the bay and now an excursion by junk, cruises or
fishing boat gives you the memorable experience of
sailing past silent, sea-girt caves and around the
spectacular formations, tasting fresh and authentic
Vietnamese cuisines, breathing cool breezing from the
Gulf of Tonkin and enjoying a romantic night with your
sweet hearts under the starry sky. That's all we can say
how fantastic Halong is and how amazing our junk cruise
you will feel because it's simply the best that we can
offer you. |
 |
The Lagoon Explorer is designed
sophistication and the utmost attention to the
detail of a traditional sailing boat. The junk is the
first and only tourist junk on the bay which can
really sail! Built for real expeditions, you can
truly go to and remote. |
 |
You will be surrounded by the
handcrafted woodwork of teak and oak which make the
lagoon explorer junk a true masterpiece. The Junk has
one deluxe cabin and three smaller cabins, a fine
dinning
restaurant and bar, an out door lounge, swim platform, a
well–train crew,24hours electricity supply and a host of
activities to make your. |
