Hanoi 5* hotel, Halong Bay junk cruise, delicious food.

Waking to the tranquil beauty of the bay from the comfort of your private cabin is a memorable experience. Magnificent Halong Bay, with its 3,000 islands rising from the emerald waters of the Gulf of Tonkin, is one of the natural wonders of Vietnam and now a World Heritage site. Enjoy the bay from the luxury of a private junk with opportunities to swim, kayak along secluded lagoons and feast on delicious meals prepared by the chef. Your hotel in Hanoi is the 5* Sofitel Metropole Hotel. Classic French colonial style architecture, beautiful decor and a central location makes this a wonderful place to stay. The hotel is located a short walk from Hoan Kiem Lake and the old quarter. Boasting a classical white facade, green shutters, original wrought iron detail, wood paneling and a lush courtyard lawn, the hotel is one of the region's few remaining hotels of its era. Hanoi is a travellers' delight, it's easy to get around and there's hours of pleasure to be had wandering through the streets of the Old Quarter - the shopping is irresistable!
