In the afternoon, we explore the breathtaking Trang An Landscape Complex by boat. Drift through a network of caves — including Sang (Light) Cave, Toi (Dark) Cave, Ba Giot Cave, and Nau Ruou Cave — surrounded by majestic limestone mountains and tranquil rivers.

In the evening, enjoy a delicious dinner on board followed by the opportunity to try night fishing with local fishermen. The peaceful atmosphere, shimmering reflections of the limestone karsts, and the distant lights of fishing boats create an unforgettable experience.

Start your morning with a serene cruise through Ha Long Bay. Enjoy a light breakfast on board as the boat glides past more of the bay’s spectacular limestone formations. We’ll make a stop at a scenic cove to take in panoramic views and capture final photos of this breathtaking seascape.

A delicious seafood brunch is served on board as we make our way back to the harbor.

08:00 AM – We depart for the town of Cu Chi, located approximately 35 km from Ho Chi Minh City (a 1.5-hour drive). Here, we explore the legendary Cu Chi Tunnels — an extensive underground network built by Vietnamese resistance fighters during their long struggle for independence.

The tunnels, which became globally known during the 1960s, stretch over 250 km in the Cu Chi district alone and once extended all the way to the Cambodian border. Ingeniously constructed over 25 years, the network included hidden trapdoors, living quarters, weapons factories, hospitals, kitchens, and command centers — some several levels deep. This visit offers a powerful insight into Vietnam’s wartime history and the ingenuity of its people.

After lunch at a local restaurant, we return to Ho Chi Minh City for a half-day tour. Highlights include:

• Reunification Palace, the former presidential residence

• Notre Dame Cathedral (built 1877–1883), a classic symbol of French colonial architecture
