With the long blades on top that go round very fast, a helicopter can stay still in the air, and move straight up and down that makes it perfect for aerial sightseeing. On the helicopter, you’re able to spread eyes as far as possible toward the extensive seascape. The uninterrupted panorama is what you might cherish during the trip when the limestone cliffs, emerald sea, and islands show their full beauty before your eyes. The sightseeing tours in Halong Bay by this aircraft will take you to the best attractions. Some of the outstanding names include Tuan Chau Islands, Ti Top Island, Bai Tu Long Bay, Ga Choi Islet, Vung Vieng Fishing Village, Cong Dam Island, Ha Long Park, and more. You’re likely to see that you are not alone on Halong sky as there are some other passengers that share the interest in sightseeing the marvelous Bay from the top, like the free birds. Be ready to fly? You can select the sightseeing tours of 12 minutes, 25 minutes, or 40 minutes.

Chose this tour company thru my canadian travel agent. Excellent choice. It was a private tour. Our guide, our driver my husband and I. It was a good choice considering the covid 19 epidemic. From beginning to abrupt end of our tour we had excellent knowledgeable guides and top drawer accommadations. The tours were well planned and gave us a good understanding of their homeland and what made them proud. We had time to investigate things on our own as well. Unfortunately we had to leave one week early but plan to return one day. We would not hesitate using this company again. We are in our 60's and our activities met our abilities. Felt safe and well informed with necessary changes. We were given a refund for places we were unable to go to

Not just China!! ...We had a very successful trip with Travel China Guide in China last year, so when planning this years trip to Vietnam we decided to use Travel China Guide again. In March my wife and I completed a excellent private tour of Vietnam from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi (Including Mikong delta and Halong bay cruises). Once again Wendy was professional and responsive when arranging and also during our trip. A picture is suggested but you don't want to see a picture of me ..... so how about one of the beautiful "spring roll holder" we were presented with during one of the many excellent Vietnamese meals we enjoyed.
