Soar above 1,600+ emerald-green limestone islands in a private seaplane — the only way to truly grasp Ha Long Bay's UNESCO-listed grandeur. Sweeping aerial panoramas that no boat deck can ever match.
What to expect
Board a sleek Cessna Grand Caravan floatplane at Tuan Chau Marina and bank over the full sweep of the bay — Bai Tu Long, the karst towers of Lan Ha, and the famous 'fighting cocks' rock. Your pilot narrates the geology and history as the emerald water glitters below. Land back at the marina in time for a second adventure on the water. Operates daily, weather permitting, with safety standards meeting international aviation norms.
Good to know
Flight departs Tuan Chau Marina, approximately 15 min from Ha Long International Cruise Port by taxi. Scenic flights run 25 min; pre-book at least 48 hrs ahead as seats are extremely limited. Bring a light layer — the cabin can be cool. All-aboard timing: confirm your ship's schedule; the 25-min scenic option leaves ample buffer.
