Value for money, great for first-timers!

The Ha Giang Loop is nothing short of a bucket-list adventure. The loop brings you jaw-dropping views of the sweeping mountains, lush valleys, and vibrant rice terraces that seem to cascade down the hillsides. Along the way, you'll encounter diverse ethnic communities, each with unique traditions, clothing, and ways of life. This ride pushes you out of your comfort zone, and rewards you with experiences that are off the beaten path - it's a blend of challenge and cultural discovery that's hard to find anywhere else.

About the weather

You might be surprised to learn that the Ha Giang region in northern Vietnam can get quite cold, especially in the mountains. From October to March, temperatures can dip to 5–10°C in the early mornings and at higher altitudes. Light rain or mist is also common during these months, especially in the passes — so be prepared for wet and chilly conditions.

Please pack sufficient warm clothing, including a jacket, layers, and a raincoat, to stay dry and comfortable throughout the trip.

How does accommodation & rooming work?

By default, solo travelers are matched with same-gender roommates. If you're traveling with friends, you can choose to room together. Private rooms are sometimes available at an additional fee at checkout.

Trip confirmation & minimum participants

Most trips require a minimum of 4 and cap at 20 participants. Booking early helps the trip reach confirmation faster — and you'll enjoy our early bird discount.

Is flight included?

Flights are not included, giving you flexibility to book your own. We recommend booking after your trip is confirmed. Once you've booked, we'll send you a detailed trip pamphlet with recommended flight options and more details about your trip.

Cancellation & refund policy

Cancel before the deadline shown at checkout and receive a full refund in credits. If we cancel the trip due to insufficient participants, you'll receive a full cash refund.

Physical level

A bike license is not required for this trip as you will be attached to a driver for the duration of the trip.

Can I ride the motorcycle myself if I have a license?

For licensed riders considering self-riding, please be aware that Vietnam only recognizes the 1968 International Driving Permit (IDP) under its current traffic laws. However, Singapore only issues the 1949 IDP, which is not valid in Vietnam.

As a result, you would be riding illegally and may be subject to frequent police checks, fines, and most importantly, your travel insurance may not cover any incidents.

Additionally, the roads in Ha Giang are mountainous and often challenging even for experienced riders. For everyone’s safety and peace of mind, we only offer the trip as a passenger with a licensed Easy Rider guide, rather than self-riding.
