Ha Long Bay is one of those places that earns every bit of its reputation. Nearly 1,600 square kilometers of limestone islands rising out of the Gulf of Tonkin, a dragon legend behind the whole thing, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site designation it has received twice over. I spent three days out on the water on the Peony Cruise sailing through Lan Ha Bay, visiting a remote floating village, kayaking through caves, and ending up inside a mountain on Cat Ba Island — and it genuinely lived up to every photo I had ever seen of it. This video covers the full experience — the history of the bay, what the Peony Cruise is actually like from boarding to checkout, the food, the stops, and whether a multi-day cruise is the right way to see it. If Ha Long Bay is on your list, this one is for you.
