What travelers say
“The Ha Giang Loop is an adventure that will stay forever in our hearts. We had very good drivers who knew the road by heart — special thanks to Dak, I felt completely safe the entire journey. The food was great and the evenings memorable.”
“Truly one of the best experiences of my life. As a solo traveler I was stressed, but the group was amazing and every driver was kind and drove safely. The homestays and hotel were lovely and the food beyond expectations.”
“Clearly one of the best parts of my trip to Vietnam. They organised my arrival from Sapa perfectly and even booked my bus to Cao Bang. Special mention to Thinh, my driver and guide — always smiling and caring.”

Before you ride
During the tour: what's included and what's not?+
Included: accommodation, easy riders & a local guide (motorbike driver), entrance fees & sightseeing tickets, filtered water (1.5L/day), all meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner), protective gear (helmet, elbow & knee pads), a FREE Ha Giang Loop T-shirt, plus a FREE night before the tour with luggage storage. Not included: bus tickets, tips for the driver and guide, travel insurance, and the border permit (260,000₫/person, paid directly to the local authority).
Can I bring a suitcase or a large backpack?+
Yes, but we recommend traveling light. Luggage space on the motorbike is limited — a 20–30L backpack or duffel is ideal. Larger luggage can be left safely at our office/hostel: free storage, 24/7 CCTV.
Can I ride a motorbike without a valid license?+
To ride legally in Vietnam you need a valid motorcycle licence and an International Driving Permit (IDP, 1968 Vienna Convention). Without one you risk fines, rejected insurance and personal liability. Message us on WhatsApp to check.
How can I pay for my tour?+
Cash (Vietnamese Dong), credit/debit card (4% bank fee), or bank transfer (Revolut). A deposit may be required to confirm; the balance is paid on arrival before the tour.
What happens if it rains?+
The loop is beautiful in all seasons. If it rains we provide high-quality raincoats and adjust the pace to the road. Safety is always our priority.
What is your cancellation policy?+
Free cancellation up to 48 hours before the tour. Within 48 hours a fee may apply, and no refunds once the tour has started.
Are there ATMs along the route?+
They are limited outside the main towns. Withdraw enough cash in Ha Giang City before the tour — many small shops and markets don't accept cards.
