Ask a questionHi, hoping to do snorkling in Ha Long Bay. My preference is to stay at a simple hotel and snorkek off the beach or rocks. I'm ok with ferries to an island, but don't want to be on your boat all day. I just hope to have nice snorkling a few times through the day. Do you have anything like that? I'm in Hanoi now, go Ha Long Bay sometime between Aug 6 - 12, got to be on plane Aug13.
Dear Paul, Thank you for your email. I am sorry that we do not have service like your request. We only provide tours with Halong cruise. You may go to Cat Ba island and as an agency or hotel there for the snorkeling activity. Best regards, Cindy
