To start your adventure tour in Vietnam, we’ll pick you up from your hotel in Hanoi's Old Quarter at 08:00. We’ll drive to Dinh Vu Harbour, where you’ll take a 45-minute fast boat ride to Cat Ba Island. Once we arrive, we’ll have lunch in Cat Ba town.

In the afternoon, we’ll go on a trek to Viet Hai Village through Cat Ba National Park. This park is great for seeing birds and enjoying the beautiful forest around Frog Lake. While you hike, look out for local wildlife like native cats, squirrels, spotted deer, snakes, and many butterflies. If you’re lucky, you might even see the rare Cat Ba Langurs.

At the end of the day, you’ll enjoy dinner and spend the night in a cozy bungalow in the village of Viet Hai, ready to rest and get ready for more adventures.
