When the bus pulled up to the departure point for Halong Bay I was a little put-off by the incredible number of tourists. But I had heard that Vietnamese drive boats the same way they drive motorbikes and I was looking forward to that. As it turns out, the bay of 3,000 islands proved big enough to avoid other tour groups once we left the harbou...

Retour de Van Don à Bai Chai (moitié ouest de Halong City) en passant par le Charleroi local et en croisant un transport de container couché sur un pont... Ici, tout le monde n'a qu'une idée en tête, nous vendre un ticket de croisière pour la baie d'Halong et les prix varient de 10 à 100%! Nous irons donc voir nous même (erreur gigantesque). Tou...

We didn't stay in Hanoi for long after leaving the group, and we booked ourselves on what they call a 'Junk' boat for two nights. On the first day sailed around Halong bay which is made up of 3000 islands, and went swimming, kayaking and visited a cave on one of the islands. We spent the night on the boat and went up to the deck to watch the sun...

There were about 12 of us on the bus heading for Halong Bay. Our guide Quong took any questions we had about Vietnam on the way out. A Russian woman asked him why the women carry those poles with such heavy loads. Is it a hobby? (?!?!!?!) Why don't they take taxis? (!!!!!!!) He explained that these women were poor. But why don't they just take a...

We had spent some time in choosing which company we went with, and the one we chose, was not too expensive ($26 for two days, all in except drinks) and promissed that they have great service, and super facilities and hve no lies l...

WE went on a tour which was a boat trip (we slept on the boat) around Halong Bay islands and a day on Cat Ba Island (where stayed at the most amazing hotel). Halong Bay was cool. I got to kayaking and found a really love it. We looked around some amazing caves that really put the ones we saw in Laos to shame. Had a lot of fun singing karoke on a...
