Ha Chiang loop for an old boy

Well what can I say about my Ha Chiang loop trip I did with Yesd. They were excellent from start to finish. As a 54 year old man I did the loop solo with my driver Chinh as I wanted to avoid the happy water and karaoke aspect. Chinh understood this perfectly and took me on a fabulous trip. We took local routes when he could, avoiding some of main routes. He kept ahead of the ‘Mongolian army’ as he called the throngs of other loopers and often arrived at view points before they arrived …

An authentic and sustainable experience

It was a unique experience that allowed me to truly experience sustainable tourism. The activities took place in breathtaking landscapes and gave us the opportunity to learn firsthand about the traditions and lifestyle of the local communities. The team was very attentive and took care of every detail to ensure we enjoyed our stay to the fullest.
Realmente lo recomiendo! es una manera hermosa de descubrir Ha Giang y, al mismo tiempo, contribuir a un turismo responsable.

A memory for life

An amazing experience! Incredible guides! You almost feel privileged compared to other groups. The accommodation is top-notch; the house, the welcome, the meals—everything is perfect. The mountain trek is magical, the motorbike trek is insane (beware of sore bums by the end!), incredible views the whole time, and super enriching stories. It really puts things into perspective compared to our European comforts—it feels great! To conclude this review, thank you again to the entire YESD Travel team; they are truly wonderful people.

A portion of the profits also directly go back to supporting the communities and local infrastructure.

    Q5. When is the best time to go to Ha Giang?

    Ha Giang is beautiful in every season. At any time of the year, the mountainous landscape here overwhelms visitors with its natural beauty and colourful festival atmosphere.

    However, if you need to pick one period, we would suggest you October – November or March – May. During these periods, the weather will be quite mild (not hot/ cold). It’s the perfect weather to do the loop.

    If you want to see the yellow rice terrace, Mid-Sept to beginning of October will be the best time. The yellow rice terrace will the in Hoang Su Phi area and not in the loop itself. Therefore, you can combine the loop with some trekking in Hoang Su Phi to admire the beauty of these yellow rice terraces.
