So good to see travel vloggers that don't moan and groan or judgemental. I had a chance to live and work in VN for 10 yrs and had moved back to the West for more than 8 yrs now and I miss VN a great deal. I remember being able to enjoy my time there by living and hanging out with locals and reminding myself what would I have to pay in the US or in the West in general to get i) good living accommodations ii) fun transportation iii) delicious food at ridiculous price iv) having fun and friendly people helping me cope with local issues v) visit gorgeous scenery. Those constant reminders made my time in VN so much more enjoyable. As for your thanking the viewers, I must say I get more out of your videos than you out of my thumbs up. Take care
Absolutely agree with this comment. I have travelled extensively in south east Asia and I never recommend it to my friends unless you have the attitude these guys have. Amazing personalities
Value and treasure every moment you have with your dad. Nothing is more meaningful than having to traveling with your father. It'll be the most valuable memory that will forever stay in your heart; when someday, in his older age that he will be no longer around you. I wish I could travel with my dad. Enjoy every moment of your travel.
Early in the vid, you said "so many boats!" Actually, there're too MANY boats now! Ha Long Bay authorities should've limited the number of vessels allowed, but, too late now! I'll be there in October/November, but trying a cruise with more of a concentration on Lan Ha Bay. Keeping my fingers crossed Lan Ha isn't overwhelmed as well!
I feel like Vietnam has really shown the love and care you have for one another more like ride apart made you appreciate your togetherness if that make sense. I love the bloopers you should have left ‘danger zone’ in it made me laugh, your sense of humour is very cute and I would love to see more of it in your vlogs.
living vicariously through your travels and really loving the vietnam series! super wholesome! Can't wait to be back. Would love to know your itinerary or your highlights of this trip!
That’s so awesome to see it from your perspective! I’m Vietnamese and I have been to Halong Bay so many times, each time a different cruise. Orchid Cruise is the first boat I’ve been on and initially I’ve had the same impressions as you guys so to see your reactions is very nostalgic. Hope you keep making these kinds of videos about travelling and making each moments count!
Luxury cruise indeed! So glad you chose a great boat for the experience. Traffic from Ha Noi to Ha Long can be busy (thru Uong Bi), but I'd guess you preferred not to be riding bikes alongside the many big buses. I don't recognize the port you taxi'd to the boat from, so guessing that may have been Toan Chau island with empty resort remodels underway, rather than the main Ha Long Bay marina. Ha Long (city) is bustling tier 1 city with a big Sun Group amusement park across "friendship" bridge. Really great place. I'm surprised if they didn't take you Surprise (Sung Sot) Cave, the iconic Ha Long Bay picture. The floating vendors use long telescoping nets to deliver snacks/beer and retrieve payment. And it's true...very difficult to escape karaoke in VN, even on Ha Long Bay! So happy you got to experience it, and shared it with us! (P.S. I replied with the address of Quan an Ngon on Hanoi video)
Tia, I tried to ride a scooter here in Koh Samui, I have a new found respect for you and what you did on your road trip in Vietnam! I ended up returning the scooter as I couldn't keep my balance!! Bravo!!
I'm going on a Europe/South Asia travel next year and I have been loving following your journey! I am learning a lot, but mostly just enjoying your company ;) Much love from Quebec
We went in October 2019 and the weather was amazing, it's the best month to go cruising. My next adventure is the Ha Giang loop in August 2022, on our second trip to Vietnam. We plan on having a week in Nha Trang too as we didn't go there on our first trip. It's a 100 percent must do to go cruising out on the bay. Get a room with a balcony but all that other fancy stuff in your room isn't needed as you won't spend much time in your cabin.
Ha Long Bay looks amazing!! That's definitely one spot I want to visit in Vietnam! I'm so glad that you have such a supportive community here on UA-cam so that you two can do more of these amazing experiences :)
Hello one Pack wonder again We are so happy for you that’s your trip to Ha Long bay.💕 you all deserve all the best Viet Nam can offer. Enjoy your stay. Love you all 💑💖🇻🇳
That insubordination to the kayak captain should not be tolerated. Once back on the mothership, a mutiny trial shall convene. The only acceptable response to the captain's command is "Aye Aye, Captain!" and that wasn't it.
You guys should totally send stuff home w/ Cheveyo’s dad to lighten your backpacks when he travels back home….so you can accumulate more stuff on your travels. 🤣
Cool, you guys seem to really enjoy it. That was fancy. The boat I was on was like a fishing boat compare to this (though it is much cheaper (but I guess you get what you pay for)). And at night there is a karaoke party. It was like a backpacker party boat. Yours was more high-end.
So glad you got to Halong Bay- and really happy to see you splurge on special experience with your Dad as well. Looking forward to following your next country adventures. I just love how much you are enjoying your travels- reminds me to be grateful for all the amazing places I ve been able to visit whilst living in Singapore - take care xx
David and I were just talking about a trip to Vietnam next year and your videos are making us want to go there even more!! Thank you for the great content guys!!
Hi guys! Fantastic! I did Halong Bay years ago on a smaller boat but it was very nice too. We had a balcony too. Another great boat trip is the Three Gorges in China. Maybe some day you can do that
I love the way you say ( you can really hear the bats in here ) then look up and around with your mouth open after being dripped on so many times on your adventures 👍🍻
Hello Tia Cheveyo and Dad such a enjoyable video loved your overnight Ha Long Bay Cruise. A must for me to do. Thank you for the journey love how you are both so positive. I thought Dad looks different could not work out then Oh hair cut lol Hope Dad is enjoying himself. Take Care. .
Du lịch ở Việt Nam xong bạn đón xe qua nước Lào hoặc Campuchia đi đường bộ trải nghiệm. Vì 2 nước đó gần biên giới vn xong bạn có thể nhập cảnh lại vào Việt Nam. 2 bạn chưa đi miền tây của Việt Nam
Trevor and I got a good laugh when you guys revealed the sharing of the room! 😅 we travel with my sister and we are usually always sharing a room together also. ✨👍👍 Fun video! Looking forward to watching more of your travels in Vietnam 🇻🇳 💛 We love Vietnam and can’t wait to go back!! Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦 🍻 ✨ subscribed! ☑️
Wow! I didn't know they have overnight cruises through Ha Long Bay! I'll have to save up for that when I'm there. What a great way to see this natural wonder. Is it just for the one night?
Ha! I have always made pineapple jack o lanterns for Halloween as they’re easier to carve out than a pumpkin….and smell yummy too and us mum’s can have pineapple cocktails while the kids roam the street…but it’s warm in Australia at Halloween and sometimes a really long weekend . Love the show and cheers from here! 🐨🙏🥂🍍🍍🍍🍍
Just wait until you get there to book a tour. You want to make sure the weather is good. Your hotel in Hanoi will probably have pamphlets or check travel stores around the area. I booked mine through Klook. I just book a day tour that included luxury van pick up, meal/snack, kayaking and the big cave tour for less than $40 in 2019. They have different packages you can choose from.
@One Pack Wanderers LOL! We were lucky when we went, told you it was the beginning of the pandemic so there is no crowd. We did not feel rush because there is only the four of us and the guide let us explored at own leisure.
I do not remember the name of the vessel, but we went with a company called Orchid Cruises. Definitely felt like we ended up on a pretty nice cruise. The food especially was really good.
The in-person tour companies around Hanoi (there are many) arrange transportation as part of the deal. I don’t recall the name of the tour agency we used, but they are all very similar and the process is painless 🙂
Hi. Wasn’t sure if you mentioned the name of the cruise ship. Just wondering what’s the cruise ship name. I’m planning to go VN in January 2023. Thanks.
That looked amazing! We were surprised at how busy it looked? Question - totally not meaning this at all in any kind of judgy way, I promise - are masks not required there anymore? We didn't see many people in backgrounds and stuff wearing them. Super excited to see how the cruise finishes (and to see what new gear is coming!!).
Wearing mask is still required but not strictly, I believe Vietnam will lift this requirement soon because this country has basically reached herd immunity with high vaccination rate. In fact, Vietnam fully reopens borders for international tourists without any requirement of covid test, quarantine, vaccine passport, medical declaration. Life is returning pre-covid normal.
They are still technically required. But we’ve observed maybe 10% mask usage in Vietnam (even in the airport). Generally we try to do whatever the locals are doing in regards to masks 😷🙂

An adventure to follow them because they are not like typical tourists.
Love all of you

@7:36 Hi, Tia and Cheveyo. The lady will hand you your stuff in the net attached to the long pole beside her. It's really cool
I normally watch these type of videos for the place but you guys just radiating so much kindness and fun, I'd watch anything with you two in it.
That is really nice of you to say 😊
So cool seeing everyone having different experiences in Ha Long Bay 😊 Safe travels!
☺️ and you both!
I didn't know you guys are watching from this.

Thank you for showing us your trip at Ha Long Bay.
😂 I would take the 3rd bed closest to the view and if it wasn't raining, I'd move it outside and sleep on the balcony.
Hai bạn có một chuyến du lịch rất tuyệt vời, Hạ long rất đẹp, chúc hai bạn tiếp tục có những trải nghiệm vui vẻ tại Việt Nam
Please bring back your dad when you hit Australia ... he is one cool companion traveler!
In the middle of the ocean you can't escape karaoke in Vietnam 🤣🤣
I am glad that you guys get on the cruise and enjoy the trip at Ha Long Bay.
Wow this video is really awesome

A good way to end the long trip here in Viet Nam to Ha Long Bay. Really ! thank you for your videos. You guys are amazing people. takecare ❤
Noooo! I’m sad you’ll be leaving Vietnam soon 😢 I’ve been following you this whole trip and it’s been awesome! Hope to see more of dad! Cheers!

"We need a horn" LOL
Love you guys!
It’s so adorable how humble and down to earth and appreciative you guys are. Love watching your vids! Ha Long Bay looks so beautiful!
Phong cảnh rất đẹp và quyến rũ , cảm ơn bạn đã làm video về đất nước và con người Việt Nam chúng tôi
“Even in the middle of the ocean, we can’t escape karaoke in VietNam” lol =)))
It’s just background noise to us now. Kind of calming to fall asleep to honestly 😅
Great video, made me relive the fond memories I had in Halong Bay. Thank you for the uplifting content. More coffees, everyone!!
That looks totally worth it!
Good to see you guys relaxing and enjoying Vietnam 🇻🇳
this was my favorite adventure with you guys❤❤..I had so much fun watching 😊
That insubordination to the kayak captain should not be tolerated. Once back on the mothership, a mutiny trial shall convene. The only acceptable response to the captain's command is "Aye Aye, Captain!" and that wasn't it.
I can't believe that room was quite expensive and the room looks nice, and food too. Enjoy as you have a chance! I hope you enjoy cafe in Viet-nam
You guys should totally send stuff home w/ Cheveyo’s dad to lighten your backpacks when he travels back home….so you can accumulate more stuff on your travels. 🤣
Love how you guys find joy in small things.
Cool, you guys seem to really enjoy it. That was fancy. The boat I was on was like a fishing boat compare to this (though it is much cheaper (but I guess you get what you pay for)). And at night there is a karaoke party. It was like a backpacker party boat. Yours was more high-end.
Glad to see DOD(dear old dad) enjoying the trip.
Another great blog glad you used the coffees to such a great use.
Keep them coming
So glad you got to Halong Bay- and really happy to see you splurge on special experience with your Dad as well. Looking forward to following your next country adventures. I just love how much you are enjoying your travels- reminds me to be grateful for all the amazing places I ve been able to visit whilst living in Singapore - take care xx
A wonderful couple on a beautiful journey together! 💕 Awesome vibe with sights and sounds in your travel vids! 🙂
While it was a little pricey for this cruise trip, the experience you all had was definitely amazing. Thank you for sharing us your experience.
Finally, HaLong bay with water LOL. Been watching tons of travelling vlogs, love yours the most. Be well, happy and stay safe, folks.
Thank you 😊
Love the videos. But I have to say, the bloopers section is the cherry on top!
One of your better videos.
Halong Bay is one of my bucket list things. Thank you so much for giving me a view of this.
Tia has such a beautiful and friendly smile ... glad you both enjoyed your journey ... like and subscribed !
David and I were just talking about a trip to Vietnam next year and your videos are making us want to go there even more!! Thank you for the great content guys!!
Heck yea you guys! Would you do the motorbike trip? 🙂
@@OnePackWanderers We would try anything once lol
You three look wonderful. Have a great time enjoy each other. 🙏👍❤
thanks for the video! gives alot of inspo for my upcoming backpacking trip:D
It's my birthday today and what better way to celebrate than a One Pack Wanderers Halong Bay video? Thanks guys 😄
Happy belated birthday! 🥳
Nice job, guys! Keep up the good work.
That ferry looked great and the scenery was spectacular. You've made me want to go to Vietnam!
I hope you will have a fantastic experience with Ha Long Bay
Another great video. Got me excited for my trip to Vietnam in July 👍😁
Hi guys! Fantastic! I did Halong Bay years ago on a smaller boat but it was very nice too. We had a balcony too. Another great boat trip is the Three Gorges in China. Maybe some day you can do that
Would absolutely love to visit China. One day 🤞🏻
I love the way you say ( you can really hear the bats in here ) then look up and around with your mouth open after being dripped on so many times on your adventures 👍🍻
😂
That's very nice boat....I am so envy😂😂 cuz I didn't even have a chance to go there when I visited Vietnam back in 2019
That’s a good reason to visit again, then 🙂
So beautiful x
Catching up on vlogs wow im so behind ❤️Love this boat trip…….amazing!!!!
Hello Tia Cheveyo and Dad such a enjoyable video loved your overnight Ha Long Bay Cruise. A must for me to do. Thank you for the journey love how you are both so positive. I thought Dad looks different could not work out then Oh hair cut lol Hope Dad is enjoying himself. Take Care. .

You can do a day trip or 1 or 2 nights and your second night can be spent on cat ba Island.
What a lovely couple
Like!
I think you guys are cool! If you guys are in Hanoi, I am able to let you borrow my honda wave if you need. Maybe to save some coffee money :)

Pineapple Jack ‘O Lantern is genius! Also had no idea that Halloween was a thing in Australia 🙂
I love you! Wellcome to Vietnam!
🤣 that’s right, us Vietnamese would bring a karaoke machine to Antarctica when we go.
chúc hai bạn luôn vui vẻ và hạnh phúc khi đến đất nước việt nam chung tôi du lich
In loud areas try just filming and then do a voice over later, lots of vloggers do that in a pinch!
Besties im going to ha long bay next month and looking for cruise. Could you let me know the name of the cruise
it was orchid cruise. Written on the ship.
Just wait until you get there to book a tour. You want to make sure the weather is good. Your hotel in Hanoi will probably have pamphlets or check travel stores around the area.

That sounds really nice 🙂 It’s true Ha Long is very crowded these days. It’s tough to get upset over it, because we’re just visitors as well 😅
Wish you have a nice trip in my country
What was thr name of your vessel. Looking at this for my next trip but so many different boat companies to choose from....
I do not remember the name of the vessel, but we went with a company called Orchid Cruises. Definitely felt like we ended up on a pretty nice cruise. The food especially was really good.
Came across your video. My partner is 6'2, do you think he can fit in the kayak? :(
How did you arrange round trip transportation from Hanoi? Was it easy? Who did you book it through?
The in-person tour companies around Hanoi (there are many) arrange transportation as part of the deal.
I don’t recall the name of the tour agency we used, but they are all very similar and the process is painless 🙂
There should be a dad cut of all of his statements from the trip.
Hi Guys, what is the name of the boat/company you used?
loved it, thanks
We went with Orchid Cruises 🙂
Hi. Wasn’t sure if you mentioned the name of the cruise ship. Just wondering what’s the cruise ship name. I’m planning to go VN in January 2023. Thanks.
That ship was called the 'Orchid'
this where they ended their trip on "Top Year?" What is that?
Top Gear! It’s a show about three guys and the adventures they get on. Also sort of about cars, but not really.
❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
May I ask do you need visa ( multi entries) to get in and off cruise ship. Thanks
That looked amazing! We were surprised at how busy it looked? Question - totally not meaning this at all in any kind of judgy way, I promise - are masks not required there anymore?
