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 …

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.

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.

Amazing Trek + Ha Giang Loop Tour

We recently did a trekking + Ha Giang loop tour with YESD and were blown away by their service level and professionalism.

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

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Q1. Is this a private or group tour?

    This tour is a private tour which will give you full flexibility to enjoy the way you want. Please be noted that we try to avoid the big crowd to bring you the most authentic experiences. All of our customers appreciated and were super happy doing the trip with us on this private tour. Please do not worry, you make the right choice and we assure that you will not regret this tour option.

    Q2. I am a solo traveller; can I join the tour?

    Yes, we offer private tours so you can book our tour as a gift for yourself.

    Q3. How many days should I do the tour?

    We have many options which give you flexibility to choose the most suitable one. The most common option is Ha Giang easy rider 3 days 3 nights. This option gives you the opportunity to cover all must-see destinations in Ha Giang loop while still feel not too rush. If you have a bit more time and prefer a slower pace, Ha Giang loop rider adventure 4 days 4 nights will be the best for you.

    If you love hiking, we recommend you to combine backseat motorbike (either 3 days or 4 days) tour with 1-2 days of trekking as well. You will love it!

    Only consider 2 days 2 nights easy riders/ backseat motorbike if you have very limited time because this requires you to sit on motorbikes for very long and it might be very tiring.

    Q4. Will I be provided with protective gear when being on a motorbike?

    Yes, YESD will provide you with a helmet, elbow and knee protectors.

    Q5. I cannot ride motorbikes. How can I do this trip?

    You will be the pavilion and our guides will take you at the back. You can be free to enjoy the beauty along the way.

    Q6. I have experience riding motorbikes. Can I ride on my own?

    Yes, you can if you have an international driving license which is accepted in Vietnam. If you do not have, we suggest you to have a guide to ride you. The road in Ha Giang is sneaky and quite uphill and downhill, it might be very difficult to control your bikes. Also, the riding behaviour of other local people on the road is different which might cause some troubles if you do not understand their riding behaviour. Moreover, there are many police stations along the way to check the driving license, you will be fined if you do not have one.

    Q7. 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.

    Tour Itinerary

     
    Q8. There are some spots in the itinerary I am not particularly interested in, can I skip them?

    Yes of course, we will customize it based on your interest and pace. If you want to spend more time in 1 spot and skip the others, we can do that.

    Q9. Does it include Nho Que boat ride?

    The standard itinerary does not include Nho Que boat ride, however, if you want to add it, please let us know.

    Luggage & Packaging

     
    Q10. What happen with my luggage? Is there any place to store my luggage?

    Please prepare a small backpack to bring your necessaries for your days on the loop. Your big suitcase or luggage can be stored at the first homestay when you arrive in Tha village. You will come back here on the last day when you finish the trip to enjoy the last dinner with your host before being transferred to the bus station for your bus back to Hanoi. During the trip on the motorbike, our guides will tight your backpack behind your motorbikes.

    Q11. Do I need to bring my own towels and toiletries?

    Yes, we cater all kinds of diet. Before you are on your tour, our sales will gather your diet requirement and notify it to the guide and homestay hosts so they will be fully aware of your diet. Ha Giang is still quite not developed yet in terms of tourism facilities so vegetarian or vegan options are mostly local vegetables, tofu, (eggs – in case of vegetarian), beans, potatoes … You will have plenty of them.
