Able to board tenders, paddle a kayak for short excursions and walk short village trails; not highly strenuous but requires mobility.

Most departures use Tuan Chau Marina (Ha Long); transfers or pickup from Hanoi are typically included—confirm your pickup point when booking.
The cruise notes suitability for all fitness levels, but infants must sit on laps; those with mobility issues should check tender and shore transfer logistics ahead of time.
Meals are included and operators can usually accommodate dietary restrictions (vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free) if requested during booking.
Lan Ha Bay’s karst islands formed over millions of years; the area has long supported fishing communities and more recently conservation programs tied to Ha Long Bay’s UNESCO status.
