In the afternoon, the cruise makes a stop at Luon Cave, an ideal location for kayaking. Guests can paddle through the tranquil waters, gaining a unique perspective of the bay's timeless beauty. Following this, embark on a guided walking tour to Sung Sot Cave, also known as "Surprise Cave," one of Halong Bay's most impressive limestone caves on Bo Hon Island.

As night falls, a dinner featuring a fusion of Asian and European dishes is served in the restaurant. The evening offers various leisure options, including relaxing with a drink, playing cards, or participating in night squid fishing with the crew.

Start your second day with an invigorating Tai Chi class on the sundeck, welcoming the sunrise and promoting a sense of well-being. A light breakfast will be served in the restaurant to prepare you for the day's adventures. After breakfast, transfer to a day boat for an excursion deeper into the bay.

The day boat will take you to Trinh Nu Cave and Trong Cave, where you'll have another opportunity to kayak amidst the dramatic limestone scenery. Continue to the picturesque Ba Trai Dao Beaches, known for their soft sands and clear waters. A freshly prepared lunch will be served on board the day boat by the crew, followed by free time to swim and relax in the serene environment of Lan Ha Bay.

On the return journey, the day boat will pass by unique rock formations before visiting Me Cung Cave, famous for its distinctive geological features and ancient relics. Later, enjoy afternoon tea with fresh fruit on board. Drinks ordered on the day boat are separate from the main cruise package. After checking out from the day boat, you will return to the MilaLux Cruise. From 5:30 PM to 6:30 PM, head to the sundeck for a sunset party with fruits and snacks, followed by a cooking demonstration where you can learn to prepare traditional Vietnamese spring rolls. Optional massage services are available and can be booked directly with the cruise manager. Dinner features a set menu of Asian and European-inspired dishes. After dinner, unwind on the terrace, enjoy a drink from the bar, try squid fishing, play cards, watch a movie, or listen to music.

Begin your final morning with a peaceful sunrise on the sundeck, followed by a light and refreshing breakfast. The breakfast spread includes a variety of options such as tea, coffee, milk, cakes, fruits, and cereals. After breakfast, the cruise will take you to Titop Island, a small limestone island boasting one of Halong Bay’s most beautiful sandy beaches.

Here, you have the choice to enjoy a refreshing swim in the emerald waters or embark on a hike to the island's summit. The ascent offers rewarding panoramic views of the entire bay, a perfect photo opportunity. Proper footwear is recommended, especially if conditions are wet or for the hike. By 9:30 AM, you will return to the cruise ship to complete your check-out procedures and settle any outstanding bills at the reception.
