Epic Ha Giang Trip Through Vietnam

Admire gorgeous mountain scenery and quaint villages from the saddle of a car on this trek along the Ha Giang Loop.

We’ll depart Ha Giang City and travel 45 scenic kilometers to Nam Dam, with a stop in Quan Ba. The next day we’ll hike to Lung Khuy Cave, then ride to the Extreme North Point of the country. We’ll drive along the Ma Pi Leng Pass and have our farewell dinner in Ha Giang City. We’ll slow it down on the last 40km of road, which can be rough.

During the trip, we’ll explore a cave, stay with local villagers, and swim by a waterfall.

Itinerary

The Ha Giang loop has become increasingly popular in the last year, with many travellers departing clockwise around the loop. On this tour, we go counter-clockwise for a more special and intimate experience.

On Day 1, we will drive to scenic village of Du Gia, about 70km from HG. On the way we’ll stop to visit a waterfall and river, where you can take a swim and enjoy the nature. We’ll spend the night in a homestay in Du Gia.

On Day 2, we will drive to Dong Van. Once we arrive, we will go to the Lung Cu tower which is by the border with China. Next, we will explore Dong Van Town and try the different cuisines and coffee. We will stay in a homestay in Dong Van Town and prepare for the next day’s long drive. If we are lucky enough to be there on Sunday we can visit the local market where we can try Phở Lợn (Pork Pho) and many other foods.

On Day 3 , we will travel to Hmong Royal Palace (the King of Dong Van). After we will visit Lung Tam market (silk village) and go to see the sunset in Quan Ba Mountain before spending the night at Dao people’s homestay in Nam Dam.

On Day 4, we’ll casually drive back to Ha Giang before taking the bus back to Hanoi (afternoon or sleeper).
