When arriving from other countries, the nearest airport is located in Hanoi. Our head office is located in Ha Giang approximately 5-6 hours from Hanoi. We are happy to arrange the bus from Hanoi to Ha Giang if you would like this included as part of your tour. Our buses can pick up from both the Old Quarter in Hanoi and the Hanoi Noi Bai Airport. Our bus options include VIP Luxury sleeper buses, Limousine buses or VIP regular sleeper buses. If you are already travelling in Vietnam and would like to arrive to Ha Giang from Sapa, Ninh Binh or another location, we are able to arrange that for you as part of your booking! If you would like to arrange transportation yourself, you can book the bus directly to our hotel and we would be happy to welcome you!

If you’re planning to ride the Ha Giang Loop, you’ll need to consider whether to drive on your own or hire an Easy Rider. While some experienced riders have successfully completed the loop, it is generally not recommended for inexperienced riders. The loop is known for its challenging road conditions and difficult terrain, making it potentially dangerous for beginners. Much of the Ha Giang Loop route is through steep mountain passes with sharp twists and turns. Many of the roads are still extremely rugged – some even unpaved – with many obstacles to avoid due to an influx of tourism. Big lorries, buses, and other motorbikes zip along the roads – often with little or no regard for who they’re sharing the road with – forcing drivers to be extremely attentive. Wandering eyes to the gorgeous scenery may make more fatal mistakes if one isn’t careful. In order to drive yourself, an international driver’s license is required under the 1968 Vienna Convention. You are also required to carry proof that you are licensed to drive a motorcycle in your home country. Unfortunately, if you are not licensed to drive a motorbike in your home country, and/or you hold an 1949 Convention International License these will not be accepted in Vietnam. Riding with an easy rider means that you’ll have your own personal local tour guide. Our easy riders have years of experience and are vetted to ensure safety and responsibility. Our easy riders can take you to hidden spots, allowing you to gain a richer experience. You can capture the journey from the back of the motorbike through photos and videos without having to worry about navigation. Plus, since they’re locals, they can give you loads of insight on daily life and culture in Ha Giang. If you’re driving yourself, who will be there to answer all your burning questions?

There are a few essential items you should bring along to make your trip more enjoyable. Make sure you have a small backpack for 3 or 4 days that you can bring on the back of the motorbike. Your large backpack or luggage can be stored safely at our hotel for the duration of your trip. Since there will be waterfalls along the way, don’t forget to bring a swimsuit and a towel to take a dip. Closed-toed shoes are also recommended for exploring the mountains and riding on the motorbike. As you will be in a rural area, it’s important to bring any medication that you need, sunscreen, and mosquito repellent. Bring your camera or GoPro to capture the beauty of nature, and don’t forget to have some cash on hand, as ATMs may not be readily available. During the winter, it can be quite cold so make sure to bring a warm jacket, socks and gloves to stay warm on the journey!
