Once arriving at Cat Ba Pier, you will be greeted and transferred to the hotel for check-in followed by lunch at local restaurant.

In the afternoon, you take a half-day walking tour to visit the fish sauce production factory and learn about the main industry of the island. We then head by motorbike to see a panoramic view of Cat Ba Island from Cannon Fort. The old fort is very interesting and you can see old bunkers and helicopter landing stations built into the island from the previous wars. If time permits, you can relax on the beach or take a refreshing swim. Overnight in Cat Ba.

Day 2: Half Day Cat Ba National Forest Trekking & Hospital Cave (B/L)

After breakfast, at 08:30 am, you will take an adventure to explore Cat Ba National Forest. Our car will pick you up at the hotel and then transfer to Cat Ba National Forest for hiking to Ngu Lam Mountain Peak. It will give you a real appreciation of just how big and beautiful this island really is!

After trekking in Cat Ba National Park, you will visit Hospital Cave. It is one of the new routes opened on the trek, having been previously closed since 1966, during the Vietnam War. Hospital Cave was built with the support of the Chinese government e to rescue soldiers and treat people from the island during wartime.

After this, you return to Cat Ba Town by car for lunch at a local restaurant.

At 2:30 pm, you will take a boat to Monkey Island and visit the floating village to understand the daily life of local people.

It is located between the valley and surrounding high mountains and jungle, and the people here still retain the wild character of the ancient past. After 1 hour biking and sightseeing in this Village, we return to the boat for lunch. Later on, the boat takes you to explore Lan Ha Bay and you have time to relax and swim at Ba Trai Dao Beach. This is the best place to do some kayaking, and you can travel through the Dark Cave and Night Cave while exploring the peaceful lagoon before heading back to Nam Cat Island. Here, you can enjoy some private time at your leisure, relaxing, sunbathing on the beach or partaking in activities available at the bungalows like playing football, volleyball, or more kayaking.
