Tien Ong Cave, one of the most stunning limestone caves in Ha Long with a finely constructed karst landscape, has captured the hearts of countless local and international visitors who have been captivated by its unspoiled magnificence. While Tien Ong Cave boasts exceptional and distinct qualities, it distinguishes itself from Ha Long Bay caves. The traditional narrow entrances and expansive interiors, commonly observed in most Halong Bay caves, take a remarkable turn with the cave's unique configuration

Cua Van of former times used to be among the biggest floating villages of Halong Bay residential area. Despite being in the middle of the sea, Cua Van village is not disturbed by the strong wind blowing in different directions. The main reason behind that is the surrounding cluster of islands which prevents the rush of air from completely getting through, acting as an important contributing place for boats to anchor themselves when a storm hits the zone.

The private tour is leagues beyond the group experience

I'm so glad I decided to keep researching tour options until I found this. I was close to booking the standard offering but decided to go with this at the last minute, and it was the greatest decision. We were able to take a route without tourists due to the boat speed and size, and the places we stopped are only available for private boats or overnight tours. It was peaceful and quiet, not to mention the meal we were served exceeded all expectations, it was Michelin quality. We saw others hopping on the group boats, many didn't have bathrooms and only had bench seating. Meanwhile we had a boat to ourselves with a private cabin/bathroom, a covered dining area and all the comforts you'd hope for. Certainly recommend this experience.
