Sung Sot Cave
This remarkable cave, named “Grotte des Surprises” by the French, is one of the largest and most stunning caves in Halong Bay, and a highlight on most Halong Bay itineraries.
- Hang Luon Cave - Stop at Luon Cave for kayaking or a bamboo boat ride. Luon Cave is a tunnel-like cave, 100 meters long, 4 meters wide, and 3 meters high. Although not large compared to other caves in Halong Bay, Luon Cave is unique and filled with mystery. Situated at the base of a majestic mountain, visitors must travel by boat under the mountain to reach the other side of the island, hence the name “Luon Cave.”
- Ti Top Island - Ti Top Island is blessed with captivating scenery and delightful weather, making Ti Top Beach a must-visit destination for tourists exploring Halong Bay, especially those who appreciate Vietnam’s natural beauty.

Private day tour to Halong Bay - Our private tour to Ha Long Bay was one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Vietnam. It was an unforgettable experience to explore the breathtaking scenery, magnificent limestone islands, and the incredible natural beauty of this UNESCO World Heritage Site. Having a private tour allowed us to enjoy the day at our own pace, making the experience even more relaxing and memorable.
A very special thank you to our outstanding tour guide, who made the entire journey truly exceptional. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about sharing the history, culture, and beauty of Ha Long Bay. His explanations were informative and engaging, and he patiently answered all of our questions while making sure every detail of the day was perfectly organized.
We especially appreciated the flexibility of the private tour. Thomas tailored the pace to suit our interests, gave us plenty of time at each stop, and even helped us take some amazing photos that we will treasure for years to come. His professionalism, warm personality, and genuine care made us feel like valued guests throughout the entire trip.
We highly recommend this private Ha Long Bay tour to anyone looking for a more personalized and comfortable experience in Vietnam. If you have the opportunity to tour with Thomas, you can be confident that you’ll have an unforgettable day. Thank you, Thomas, for creating such wonderful memories we will always remember this incredible experience!

Private day tour to Halong Bay - Our group of nine booked a private one-day Halong Bay tour with Vietnam Panorama Travel, and it was an outstanding experience. The itinerary was carefully planned to avoid the crowds, making the trip much more enjoyable. Everything was organized professionally from start to finish.
The boat was excellent, the food was delicious, and our tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and very attentive. We especially enjoyed exploring Sung Sot Cave, swimming at Titop Island, and kayaking through Luon Cave.
This is one of the most professional tour companies we have traveled with in Vietnam. We highly recommend Vietnam Panorama Travel to anyone looking for a memorable and well-organized Halong Bay experience.

Ha Long Bay in a day! - Louie was the perfect guide. The early departure ensured that we missed the crowds. He was engaging and informative throughout the day.
Having a private tour gave us the flexibility to change from a standard tour which was important to us.
Our driver, Hoa, was conscientious. He drove safely and ensured a timely trip.
Our private boat was exactly what we wanted. The food was amazing and the crew helpful and friendly.

Best trip to halong - An Unforgettable Journey Through halong Vietnam! The Best Decision We Made in Hanoi!
If you are looking for an authentic, seamless, and deeply personal way to see the halong bay from Hanoi, look no further than Mr. Thomas. We booked a multi-day tour with him and it was, without a doubt, the highlight of our entire trip to Vietnam.

Private Tour - Take a private tour, hassle free enjoyment rather than being part of a mob.... do not bother with the beach, just a massively overcrowded urinal ! Everywhere is crowded as it is a beautiful place and you should see it, but having your own boat with an excellent chef makes for a much better experience. Many thanks to our Guide Tim Tam, we enjoyed good conversation and many laughs.
