Top attractions in Ha Long
Natural landmark
Ha Long Bay
Located in the Quang Ninh province of Vietnam, Ha Long Bay is a breathtaking UNESCO World Heritage Site made up of thousands of stunning limestone islands, emerald waters and a rich cultural heritage. Whether you're looking for relaxing cruises with unbeatable scenery or enjoy kayaking, rock climbing and exploring caves, Ha Long Bay has something for everyone.
Translating to "Descending Dragon", Ha long Bay gets its name from Vietnamese folklore where a mother dragon descended from the skies and spat out jewels and jade to protect the land from invaders. It is said that these jewels later turned into islets rising from the emerald waters of the bay.
You can book your visit to Ha Long Bay through a tour operator, or take a bus to Ha Long city or Hai Phong and a taxi to the port. You can also book a 15-minute seaplane ride over the bay for a bird's eye view of the islands.

Buying on Klook is convenient and affordable. However, it requires using apps to contact them, and these apps are not available in Vietnam. I hope Klook can fix this.

I'm posting this because there were no reviews. I originally made a reservation to eat at the hotel restaurant. However, they recommended room service because there was an event at the restaurant and it might be noisy. At first, I was a little annoyed. But the dining team was incredibly kind. They perfectly set up napkins, candles, and tableware for in-room dining, so I enjoyed a delicious meal in the cool and comfortable room. They prepared a variety of dishes, which was great for tasting traditional Vietnamese food, and I also used other room service menu items. When I walked past the restaurant, it was indeed very noisy, so I realized it was a thoughtful gesture from the hotel. It would be great if Klook could upload more detailed menus or menu photos. I still don't know what I ate, even after finishing the meal, haha.

Great experience with all the attractions in the place except if there’s Chinese tour buses they are very pushy with all the queues makes it a bad experience, so try come early or late to avoid.

the day trip when really smoothly. we visited a cave, set on the bamboo boat, and did some hiking. the tour guide did not follow us while we were at the activities, but he let us know where to meet when we were done. the hiking might not be suitable for very young kids or very old people, as there are many steps to climb. thankfully weather was great.

Our guide, Eden (E.D.E.N.), is an amazing tour guide. He speaks English and is very passionate about what he does. He puts a personal touch on how he explains things and is naturally concerned for people. He is an authentic leader and has a command in leadership, especially regarding timing, which is very important in group activities. He is very trustworthy and communicated prior to the start of the tour. He has consistently been reachable for any questions.
The cruise itself is very worthwhile. There's a good selection of food and interesting activities. The crew members were also amazing and attentive. Overall, it was a great experience that I would recommend to my friends and family.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another Amazing Experience with Dolphin Day Cruise! 🐬🌊
This was my second time joining the Dolphin Day Cruise, and once again, it did not disappoint! 🥰
This time, I brought my friends along so they could experience the cruise too. What made this trip even more special was that I managed to participate in almost all of the activities, including swimming! 🏊♂️🌊 It was such a fun and memorable experience.
The beautiful scenery, relaxing atmosphere, delicious food, exciting activities, and excellent service made the whole day truly enjoyable. I especially appreciate the crew for being friendly, attentive, and professional throughout the journey.
Since this was my second time, I can honestly say that Dolphin Day Cruise continues to be one of my favourite experiences in Ha Long Bay. ❤️
I’m really happy that I brought my friends this time, and we created another wonderful memory together.
Highly recommended! 🐬⛵️✨
Thank you, Dolphin Day Cruise, for another unforgettable day! 🇻🇳❤️

Wonderful day trip. It was a long day due to travel time there and back, but it was worth it. We had a great guide, and the transportation was well-organized and comfortable. The boat was excellent, with lunch, kayaking, swimming, and beautiful surroundings. The golf cart ride across the island to the cave and museum was also a lot of fun. It was nice that it was small-scale and not overly touristy.

I was worried because it was an English tour and not Korean, but our guide Henry was so kind and took great care of us! The buffet food wasn't outstanding, but it was generally good, and the Vietnamese spring rolls and fried spring rolls were quite delicious! The cruise ship was also large, so I didn't get seasick and could travel very comfortably. 😊😍👍 Also, many packages required meeting near Hoan Kiem Lake or at a central location, but it was great that they picked us up even though we weren't in that area! For the bus, the travel time was longer than expected, so it's much better if you opt for the premium transfer. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone I know planning a trip to Ha Long Bay in the future!

What to know before visiting Ha Long
Quick snapshot of Ha Long City and what to expect
Ha Long City is a coastal destination where cruises, cable car rides and guided tours dominate bookings, with cruises the single most-booked category. Demand swings through the year, building to a clear spring peak and easing into a quieter autumn.
Best times to visit and how prices change
According to Klook booking data, demand peaks in April while October sees the lowest demand. Prices are not perfectly aligned with demand: booking prices dip in midsummer and then rise again toward the winter and early spring. If you want lower prices and fewer crowds, consider July and the late-summer months; if you prefer the liveliest atmosphere and highest activity, April is typically the busiest.
Tips for travellers from the United States
Most experiences in Ha Long City can be booked fairly close to travel—Klook data shows travellers typically book around six days ahead and many last-minute options exist just one day out—so a degree of spontaneity works well. If you plan to travel in April, lock in key cruise or tour bookings earlier (or during the early booking window) to secure your preferred time. Use Klook to compare cruise and cable-car options and reserve what you need before arrival for peace of mind.
