All YESD Ha Giang loop motorbike tours are completely private with experienced local tour guides in one place.
10% tour revenue will go to native community funds that help build schools, host educational/medical projects which are meant to improve living quality for the locals.
What Makes Our Ha Giang Loop Motorbike Tours Special?
We don’t want you to remember Ha Giang as a line of motorbikes following the same road. We want you to remember the people you met, the stories you heard, the unexpected stops, and the moments you never planned for. That’s why our tours are private and personal. You won’t be travelling in a big group of strangers. Your guide will be there to travel with you, talk with you, and help you discover the places beyond the usual tourist routes.
Every YESD guide is selected and trained by our team, including English communication and responsible tourism, so you can actually have a conversation—not just sit behind someone who knows how to drive. We take you deeper into local communities, where you can meet families, share their food and learn about their everyday lives. And when you leave, something stays behind. Your trip helps create work for local people and supports the communities that welcome you. Because for us, a good journey is not only about where you go. It’s about who you meet along the way.
We give local people employment, income and learning opportunities so they are directly involved in your tourism experience. Our guides and hosts will give you a special insight into culture and life in Vietnam.
Responsible
We aim to minimise the negative impacts of tourism on the environment and the local community while contributing positively to local economies. We don’t just talk responsible tourism, we act!
Tours that translate
Part of all profits from our tours go towards a community fund and social projects. This money allows us to make infrastructure improvements, provide other important resources to those in need, and create social projects that bring in real impacts.
Our responsible tours spread throughout the country …
Wherever your adventure with YESD happens, we ensure that the communities welcoming you also receive meaningful support. Our responsible travels make sure every step becomes a way to give back.
The best tour ever!
If you want an authentic ha giang loop experience, Yesd travel is your choice. Unlike other, more commercial tour operators, this one focuses exclusively on private tours. It will help you avoid the chaos and party atmosphere that characterizes larger groups. We slept at Thien's in his beautiful, authentic homestay. The food was delicious, his family are great cooks, and the location was breathtaking. Thien is just a great person, very helpful, kind, spending time with him was a pleasure. He was also willing to answer all our questions, he is simply great. Contact with the company is also great, I was constantly texted if everything was okay, Ms. Nhi made it a smooth trip and everything was perfectly planned. 10/10!

L’esperienza più autentica che ha cambiato la mia vita ❤️
L’esperienza più autentica bella e transformativa della mia vita. Ho scelto con cura dopo tante ricerca Yesd e si è rilevata la miglior scelta in 4 mesi di viaggio in Asia. Il tour è stato senza parole ho pianto dall’emozione durante tutto il viaggio. Tutto organizzato perfettamente ma in modo autentico. Nessuna trappola per turisti, zero problemi e poi le guide Hain e Van ( spero di aver scritto bene) ci hanno rubato il cuore, si sono presi cura di noi ci hanno fatto entrare nella loro cultura e sono stati eccellenti in tutto. Il tour era privato niente ragazzini ubriachi in raduni di moto pericolosi, noi avevamo la nostra privacy e tranquillità per vivere in modo autentico il nostro amato Vietnam ❤️Guida sicura tranquilla ma mosse azzardate anche nei percorsi più rurali mi sono sentita al sicuro. Davvero sei professionisti. Yesd è 100% il tour operator che ricontatterò perché oltre all’eccellenza il loro progetto si supportare le minoranze etniche mi ha colpito. Rimarrete per sempre Nel mio cuore grazie mille 🙏

8 days Northwest Vietnam
It was a fantastic experience with our guide Yin and driver Guan. Both very experienced and showed us many beautiful places and met wonderful people. The guide was honest and also came with suggestions. Sometimes it was not following the itinerary, but the suggestion meet our need better. The communication with Yesd was via email and was excellent. Quick reply and made the tour to our needs. We added 2 more places to visit and it was done immediately. Also during our trip the office asked how it went and also our guide and driver could reach them fast if there were questions. There was a cloud hunting included, but that was a disappointment. Our guide told us that the cloud hunting was only visible in the winter. So, Yesd should be doing some more investigation to the items the put on the itinerary. That was the only downside, all the meals, Accommodations and places we visited were excellent! ❤️ Last note, I've would like to see visiting Yesd social projects in their itineraries, because a part of the amount paid will go to the projects.

Epic trekking adventure
My partner and I did the 3D3N trekking in Ha Giang, guided by Mr. Lim. Logistically, the YESD team was excellent and everything flowed smoothly. Mr. Lim was a wonderfully knowledgeable and sweet trek companion and we absolutely loved our homestay families. The food throughout the 3 days was SO DELICIOUS and generous portions. This was great value for money. Something to note: we are fit, healthy and in our 30's and found the trekking very challenging at times with the heat and steep inclines/declines. Definitely come prepared and ready to bust your butt. Views are sooooo beautiful

Top-tier 3D3N Loop Experience – Seamless Logistics and an Incredible Crew
If you are planning to take on the Ha Giang Loop, I cannot suggest **YESD** enough. We just finished a 3-day, 3-night tour in an open jeep, and the entire experience was flawlessly executed from start to finish. The professionalism started well before we arrived. **Ha Tran**, our coordinator, was a dream to work with. We had a very productive back-and-forth over email to nail down the schedule, and she checked in regularly during the tour to ensure everything was hitting the mark. That level of logistical care meant we could completely disconnect and just soak in the atmosphere. We were even able to tailor our itinerary to include a stunning trip on the Nho Que River. The "boots on the ground" team is what truly made this trip unforgettable. Our guide, **Tung**, is an absolute asset to YESD. His English is fluent, which allowed him to provide fascinating insights into the local cultures and customs we encountered. He acted as a bridge for us during homestay visits, interpreting conversations we otherwise would have missed, and even showed us one of his favorite village bathhouses. Tung is a consummate professional and a genuinely friendly host. Then there is **Ngoc**, our driver. The Ha Giang roads are notoriously narrow and winding with low visibility, but Ngoc is a true road veteran. He navigated the tricky terrain with such familiarity and ease that we felt completely safe the entire time. He knew exactly when to pass slower vehicles to keep us on schedule, but he always erred on the side of safety. Because of his skill, we made great time through the mountains without ever feeling uneasy. Last but not least, YESD was also kind enough to arrange a private driver to take us all the way from Ha Giang to Ninh Binh. Even though it was a grueling nine-hour drive, the transition was perfectly smooth. If you want to experience the authentic heart of Northern Vietnam with a team that treats you like a guest rather than just a booking, look no further.

Fantastische herinnering voor het leven
Wij deden twee trips via YESD: Mai Chau – Pu Luong – Ninh Binh en Ha Giang – Cao Bang. Onze reis zag er zo uit: aankomst in Vietnam → trip 1 → enkele dagen Hongkong → trip 2 → Cat Ba → einde van de reis. We reisden met opa en oma en ons gezin met twee kinderen van 4 en 7. De reis is eigenlijk precies verlopen zoals we hadden gehoopt. We konden het programma ook een beetje aanpassen aan onze wensen. Oma, die wat slechter ter been is, sloeg de hikes soms over en bleef dan met de kinderen achter als zij ook geen zin hadden. De verblijven waren vrij basic, maar dat had juist ook wel iets. Soms op plekken met de allermooiste uitzichten. We hadden ook niet het gevoel dat we op hele toeristische plekken kwamen, wat we erg prettig vonden. Alle medewerkers waren supervriendelijk en het contact per e-mail verliep steeds snel en soepel. Al met al was dit echt een reis met herinneringen voor het leven.

Riding through Ha Giang in peace and mist
We had an excellent experience with YESD. They were very organized from picking us up at 3a to coordinating our accommodations and expectations. Our drivers were clearly careful and kind - we actually got passed by other groups most of the time, but I liked that! Felt like they were truly careful drivers. Mr. Win's homestay was lovely as is he! The food choices also were great! I do wish that our drivers invested a tiny bit more into what we were looking for - for example, certain viewpoints or walks. Also, even though it was misty/cloudy - the views were still so amazing! I cannot believe a place like this exists. We really enjoyed the cave and Nho Que river excursions.

A Safe and Comforting Trip with Out-going local guides
We had an incredibly safe and comforting experience on the Hà Giang Comfort Car Ride 4D3N. The out-going local guides were attentive, friendly, and always made sure we felt well cared for throughout the journey. Traveling by car was smooth and relaxing, allowing us to fully enjoy the stunning landscapes without any worries. Their deep local knowledge and genuine connection with the communities made the trip both meaningful and memorable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable, responsible, and authentic way to explore Hà Giang.

Gorgeous trip in Northern Vietnam with great service
We had such a great time touring through Ha Giang with Ly ly and Mr. Sung. The best thing was we always seemed to go against the traffic and they timed our stops so we'd either be first there or there were very few other people, which made this trip incredible because we were able to enjoy the beauty of it in quiet surroundings. Mr. Sung was very attentive and drove slowly so we could take photos out the window. Miss Ly ly gave us lots of information and always picked great local places to eat so we could get to know lots of Vietnamese food, which was very good. She was always available for questions or if we needed anything, even in the evenings. That was very much appreciated. The accommodation was good too. Always clean rooms and even AC. (We're not fussy.) We especially loved the bamboo bungalows overlooking the rice terraces. That's also where we ate with a local family and the food was incredible. We had opted for a car for comfort and weather but we got lucky and had sunshine every day. Yes D is more expensive than other providers but we agree with other reviewers that it was definitely worth it, the professionalism, communication and service were outstanding. You'll have a great experience.
Our Ha Giang loop motorbike tours are private tours, giving you the flexibility to travel at your own pace and enjoy the experience your way. We also try to avoid large tourist crowds whenever possible, allowing you to discover a quieter and more authentic side of Ha Giang.

Yes. Our Ha Giang loop motorbike tours are available for solo travelers. You can enjoy a private experience with your own Easy Rider and guide, allowing you to travel comfortably and at your preferred pace.
We have many options which give you flexibility to choose the most suitable one. The most common option is Ha Giang easy rider tour in 3 days. 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 motorbike adventure 4 days will be the best for you.
Only consider 2 days easy riders if you have very limited time because this requires you to sit on motorbikes for very long and it might be very tiring.
If you have a flexible schedule, a Ha Giang Cao Bang tour is highly recommended if you want to experience the Cao Bang loop.
You will be the passenger, while our experienced local riders drive you safely along the route. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the spectacular scenery along the way without having to worry about navigating the mountain roads yourself.
Yes, you can ride a motorbike in Ha Giang if you have a valid international driving permit (IDP) or driving license that is legally recognized in Vietnam.
If you do not have the appropriate license, we strongly recommend joining an Easy Rider tour. With our Ha Giang loop motorbike tours, an experienced local rider will drive the motorbike for you. The roads in Ha Giang can be steep, winding, and challenging, with frequent uphill and downhill sections, so riding requires confidence and experience, particularly on mountain roads.
Local traffic and riding habits may also be different from what you are used to, which can make navigating the roads more challenging for first-time visitors. In addition, there are police checkpoints along some routes, and travelers riding without the required license may be subject to fines.
For a safer and more relaxed experience, an Easy Rider allows you to enjoy Ha Giang’s spectacular mountain scenery without having to worry about navigating the roads yourself.
Ha Giang is beautiful throughout the year, with dramatic mountain scenery, colorful ethnic cultures, and seasonal festivals offering something different in every season.
For comfortable weather, we generally recommend October–November or March–May. Temperatures during these periods are usually mild, making them ideal for exploring the mountains and enjoying the scenic roads.
If you want to see the famous golden rice terraces, mid-September to early October is an excellent time to visit. The most spectacular rice terraces are located in the Hoang Su Phi area rather than directly along the main Ha Giang Loop. You can therefore combine your Ha Giang loop motorbike tours experience with a trekking trip to Hoang Su Phi.
Yes, of course. Our Ha Giang loop motorbike tours can be customized according to your interests and preferred travel pace.
If you would like to spend more time at one destination and skip another, simply let us know. We can adjust the itinerary where practical to create a more personalized experience.

Since you will have private transportation throughout the trip, you can bring your larger luggage with you.
However, for convenience, we recommend bringing only the essentials for the mountain journey and keeping heavy luggage to a manageable size where possible.
Yes. We can accommodate a wide range of dietary requirements. Before your Ha Giang loop motorbike tours begin, our sales team will collect your dietary preferences and inform your guide and homestay hosts in advance.
As Ha Giang is still relatively undeveloped in terms of tourism facilities, vegetarian and vegan meals are generally based on fresh local ingredients such as seasonal vegetables, tofu, beans, potatoes, rice, and other locally available produce. Vegetarians can also usually have eggs if required.
If you have any specific allergies or dietary restrictions, please let us know when booking so we can make the necessary arrangements in advance.
