Before you send it
Two things decide most of the plan: the date you want to arrive, and where you are coming from. Hanoi is three to three and a half hours by road, then thirty minutes across the water from Ben Beo harbour — the whole chain is set out on getting to Lan Homestay. If you are choosing between trips, the tours page lists what we run from our own pier, and 2 Days in Viet Hai is the package most guests book: picked up in the Old Quarter, a day on Lan Ha Bay, dinner at the long table and a night in the valley.
