Highlights

Violet is Heritage Line’s most coquettish French-Indochinese designed luxury vessel. Gleaming wooden floorings, opulent silks, and velvets, selected artifacts and ornaments are distinct appearances of this small Art-Deco ship. Being ‘one-of-a-kind’ sailing the Halong Bay in the Gulf of Tonkin, she grants the highest level of privacy to its residents. With just six bright, spacious suites - each with distinct, impressive interiors and large balconies - Violet is perfect for romantic sojourns or privatized sailings (charters). A refined intimacy and attention to privacy are special features of the life onboard experience. A private dining venue pinnacles the personalised onboard experience offering exclusive and themed menus. Journeying through the bay aboard this incomparable ship makes one’s stay unforgettable – be it for couples, small groups, or special occasion travelers.

Itinerary

day 1

DAY1: MARINA – CUA VAN – CAVE - MOORING

Embark on an enchanting Halong Bay journey as you acquaint yourself with the amenities on board our vessel. Witness the breath-taking scenery from the sun deck during our initial hours of cruising. Start our journey with a pass by Cua Van Relic, a former floating fishing village in Halong Bay, where fishermen once used it as a base for their fishing and aquacultural activities. Glide through this serene area in a small bamboo boat rowed by locals, offering a glimpse into the village and understand how once whole families used to live on water here. For the more active ones, take a kayak and paddle around the floating hamlet for a very personal exploration (complimentary). Next, we transfer by tender to Tien Ong cave, providing evidence of human civilization dating back to 10,000 – 8,000 BC. This small cave provides some fascinating understandings of Halong Bay's geological history. Returning to the ship, we sail to the overnight mooring area, where the "blue hour" unveils Halong Bay's magical beauty. Relax on the sun deck with your favourite drink, absorbing the tranquil moment. Engage in a cooking class with our chef, practicing classic Vietnamese recipes to impress your loved ones at home later. As evening descends, a multi-course à la carte dinner is served. If you like, join in later for an on-board presentation about the bay's unique features and secrets. Alternatively, try your hand at squid fishing with our staff for a delightful and entertaining experience. Spend the rest of the evening embracing the magical landscapes in the heart of Halong Bay, where once upon a time, sparkling jewels cascaded from heavenly dragons.

Meals: Lunch, Dinner

day 2

DAY 2: MOORING – TITOV ISLAND - MARINA For early risers, tea, coffee and pastries are available in the dining room and a Tai Chi class is offered on the sun deck to awaken your mind and muscles. We set sail to the small “Ti Top Island”. Formerly named Cat Nang, the island received a name change after former president Ho Chi Minh and the second man to orbit the Earth, Russian astronaut ‘GhermanTitov’, toured Halong Bay together in 1962. Since the cosmonaut was so fascinated with this picturesque islet, Uncle Ho would rename the island to honour Mr. Titov and as a gesture of friendship between their two countries. Once arriving at Ti Top, you can go for a refreshing morning swim on a sandy beach or - if you prefer to be more active - climb 400 steps (20 min.) to the island’s top with stunning, panoramic views over the bay. Back on board, you can take a shower and freshen up. Enjoy the final moments of sailing as we head back to the harbour while breakfast is served. Relax on the sun deck or while savouring the last views of this iconic site. Meals: Breakfast
