Halong Bay was the highlight of our Vietnam family holiday. I don't usually use these types of words, but I can only describe it as an awe-inspiring, almost mystical place.
We spent 2 days and 1 night on an "Indochina Sails" junk. It was well equipped, very clean, with friendly and professional staff - and importantly the food was great!
It was a very peaceful, but also breath-taking, experience. The views were stunning.
We got to laze on the deck of the junk, swim in the bay, kayak, visit Ti Top island (where we climbed to the top of a hill to see some amazing vews) and also visit a floating fishing village.
