Hi folks. Trying to set up excursions. There are 2 of us and would love to have some folks join us or we could join an existing tour.

Want to do Saigon tour that includes the trishaw ride .

Then for Halong Bay wanted to do on 12/20: trip to Yen Doc Village and Dong Train Village from 2:00pm till 7:00 pm. Found a good tour that is $75/pp for 4-6 people ($65/pp for 7-20). It would be nice to keep the # down to 4 or 8 at the most.

The next day 12/21 Touring Halong bay for 8 hours would be great. Found a tour boat that goes from 8:00am-5:00pm $130 for 4-6 pp, $110 (7-20). Again would be nice to keep it small, maybe 4-10 pp.

If you are interested or have suggestions please let me know.

Crusing through Halong Bay and pass by numerous fasinating islets - Fighting Cock “Hòn Gà Chọi”, Insence “Hòn Lư Hương”, Dog “Hòn Chó Đá”, Toad “Hòn Con Cóc” and visit Cửa Vạn Floating Fishing Villiage by rowing boat. Rowers are local girls wearing traditional costume. It’s the opportunity to see the fisher’s daily life with the primary features in the charming nature

The pearl farm is located in an isolated water area named Tung Sau, surrounded by undulating limestone islands. The pearl growing and handicraft system has been based on Vietnamese traditional experience and Japanese technology “you can shop at the village” enchor at the pearl farm and enjoy local seafood at set - lunch onboard.

The largest cave in Halong Bay, Called by the French Sung Sot Cave (Cave of Surprises), is located in the center of the area protected by UNESCO, on the island of Bo Hon. It is located near a large concentration of stone islands and several sites of interest, including the beach Titop.

The entrance is located at an altitude of 25 m. From the the pier there are 124 stone steps erected vertically and down another 20 to reach the first room. The cave is 10,000 sqm big. Inside the cave there is a paved road over 500 meters long that takes you from entry to exit. On both sides decorative items and enlightening. Its ceiling is 30 meters high and honeycombed, like the ceiling of a Municipal Theatre, providing a sumptuous beauty. Near the entrance, held large blocks of stone. This is a typical karst cave of high scientific value.
