Just a few new images from my latest trip to Ha Long Bay aboard the Bhaya Cruises, a highly recommended operation. Good times relaxing on the deck, drinking in the sunset and kayaking around the karsts. Though I still think, as this gentleman once pointed out, that boat companies should consider more tours tailored to expats living in the north, instead of just touting the same old tired vacationer vessels. No cave walks, no cooking lessons, no “authentic fishing villages” and no exercise on the deck at 6am. Just a cabin filled with Bia Ha Noi and some floaty tubes to tow behind the ship while it lazily cruises about for two days. And if they could figure out a way around the three-hour drive from Hanoi, that would be nice too. There are helicopters.
