Halong Bay Kayaking Tour Calendar

Highlighted below are dates for 3-day Vietnam kayak trips that have been scheduled by travelers seeking to share a boat and which you may join, or you may book a private boat for your group for any date (you may also request your dates be posted on our calendar without a booking, although a deposit is ultimately required for confirmation). By sharing a boat, you reduce the largest expense of travel on Halong Bay.

We would be glad to provide you with more information about other people who are seeking to share a boat (yes, we have had Australian nudists before). For full information on our kayak trips see this page. Even if you are not interested in kayaking, you can share a boat and a guide can provide other activities and sightseeing. Our full itinerary is here. Tour costs depend on group size. Please do your research — the quality of boats, kayaks, and guides on Halong Bay varies dramatically. Our trip is of the highest quality, yet competitively priced, including private roundtrip transport from your hotel in Hanoi, accommodation on the finest boats on Halong Bay, onboard chef, most-experienced trained and licensed kayak guide (minimum 5 years on the bay), bottled water, and real, imported fiberglass Seaward kayaks (single or tandem kayaks by request). Prices start at $488 per person, but vary by size of your group.

There are also a selection of beverages, beer and imported wines on board. Please see our FAQ. Note: Halong Bay is still considered by the government to be a "military area." If you are overnighting on the bay, the local authority requires we submit your passport numbers, date of birth and other information which should be completed in full on our registration form. It also means some areas are off limits, there is no independent travel allowed.
