Responsible Travel

We understand that Halong Bay – World Natural Heritage – is our invaluable asset.

Ongoing economic development, especially tourism, is placing a lot of pressure on the environment of Halong Bay. We believe that developing businesses should be connected with environment protection in creating a sustainable harmony. Consequently the products and services of Indochina Junk are always associated with environment protection through our programme, ‘For a Green Halong’ run in cooperation with the Halong Bay Management Board.

Through joining our tours, tourists actively contribute to the protection of our heritage. Sail on a row boat or fish with local fisherman to share the benefits of tourism with them, thereby increasing their income and reducing excessive fishing. Join our mangrove forestation tour, or participate in our programme to replace foam floats with plastic ones, etc. Indochina Junk also participates in awareness raising campaigns on how to protect Halong Bay. This includes rubbish collection projects in Vung Vieng fishing village, and a project to plant 5 hectares of mangrove swamp in Cong Dam to protect the local ecosystem. This has brought a new face to the fishing villages on the bay.

In keeping with the above spirit, we wish that along with developing attractive services and providing the best leisure experiences for tourists, our Halong Bay will be protected and preserved for future generations.
