Escape Sails Restaurant
Sit down in our dining room, your gateway to the finest Vietnamese gastronomy. The delicious lunch will be served here, consisting of the local and Western ingredients for a varied and consistently selection.
Food & Beverage Working toward the excellence
Setting our sights on the excellence combined with gaiety, we have always considered Food & Beverage to be one of the key ingredients in our hospitality. Our chefs aboard Escape Sails are proud to satisfy all travelers' hunger and thirst for ever greater simplicity, excellence and authenticity.
Relaxing Area
Not in the dining room, not out on the sundecks, sitting down in our Relaxing Area on the 2nd deck of the boat, sipping a cup of coffee, reading some pages of book, you can find yourself a peaceful world while floating on the quiet waters.
Activities
The shimmering ocean below the Escape Sails is as beautiful as it inviting. We indulge the bay by stepping below its glimmering surfac discovering one of the more placid things to do from a Halong Bay da boat. We also offer swimming in emerald water, kayaking or sampan boat excursions to visit a cave.
Tea break and Cooking demons
Our chef will join us on the sundeck or in the restaurant to provide a simple but engaging spring rolls from the ingredients provided. Enjoy tea break with fresh fruits, various kinds of cakes, Vietnamese tea while watching the sunset in Halong.

12:00: A splendid lunch is served while cruising into primitive Lan Ha Bay with its hundreds of multi-sized islands creating a spectacular panoramic view.
14:30: Our next stop is to the Dark & Bright Caves, two fascinating wet cave systems with directly opposite appeal. There are 2 options for you can choose as below:
+ We kayak through the silent waters, enjoying the stillness of an area uncluttered with other cruise ships.
+ A local will row us on a sampan boat through the Bright Cave, where we emerge into a hidden lake enclosed on all sides by streaked cliffs and their tree-topped peaks. Passengers with keen eyes may be able to spot beautiful Cat Ba langurs, an endangered species of monkey that has sought sanctuary amongst the forested mountainsides of the Bright Cave.
15:30: In the mid-afternoon, we spend more time aboard our luxurious Halong Bay day cruise. Relax on one of the two sundecks and cherish the phenomenal sights of unbounded nature on all sides, perhaps with a drink from the bar. Later in the afternoon, our talented chefs will put on a cooking demonstration and fruit-carving show, followed by a Western- style afternoon tea with accompanying snacks. We will cruise back to the harbour and on the way you will have a chance for swimming in the clean water and quiet area of Lan Ha Bay
17:30 – 17:45: We arrive back at Got Harbour just as a beautiful sunset envelops Lan Ha Bay. We take the final step off our cruise and board the bus that will be waiting to return us to Hanoi.
