Overview
There's a reason people call the Ha Giang Loop the best experience in Vietnam and it comes down to more than just the views.
Ha Giang Safari is a women-owned small group tour operator built on genuine connection. Our Easy Riders are locals — they know every bend in the road, every hidden story, and they'll have you laughing the whole way.
The 2-day and 1-night Ha Giang Loop tour is for those looking for a quick getaway. We keep groups small so you get to know the people around you, share family-style meals together, sing karaoke at the homestay, and wake up to a home-cooked breakfast in the highlands.
Along the way you'll ride through dramatic mountain passes, discover H'Mong and highland ethnic minority villages, and see a side of Vietnam most travelers never find.
We take care of everything from start to finish — food, accommodation, guides, transportation — so you can just enjoy the ride. Come as a stranger, leave with stories you'll tell for the rest of your life.

Ha Giang SAFARI hostel
- 2h
- Admission ticket included
Your Ha Giang Loop adventure begins the evening before your tour with a complimentary night's stay at Ha Giang Safari Hostel. Wake up refreshed with a free breakfast before hitting the road.
You will get assigned an Easy Rider for the tour. Try on helmets and find your perfect fit before departure. Free safety gear is also available, including elbow pads, knee pads, and a helmet.
You will securely store your large bag in a locked storage room so you can pack light — just bring a small bag for the journey ahead. Before setting off, your tour guide will walk the group through a full route debrief, covering highlights, safety tips, and everything you need to know — with time to answer all your questions.
Tip: Pack only what you need for 2 days in a small bag. Leave the rest locked safely at the hostel — it'll be waiting for you when you return!
Quan Ba Heaven Gate
- 15m
The first day brings a dramatic shift in scenery as you leave Ha Giang city behind and wind your way through mountain roads and sweeping hairpin bends — locally known as snake rolls. The ride itself is part of the experience, with every curve revealing a more breathtaking landscape than the last.
Your first major stop is the legendary Heaven Gate (Cổng Trời), reached by crossing the Bac Sum Pass. At the summit, you'll be rewarded with a sweeping panoramic view of Tam Son town nestled in the valley below and the iconic Twin Mountains (Núi Đôi) — two perfectly symmetrical hills rising from the valley floor that are unlike anything you've seen before.
Tam Son
- 1h
Enjoy family-style lunch in the charming town of Tam Son. Shared dishes of local Vietnamese flavors are brought to the table for everyone to enjoy together — a warm, communal way to refuel and soak in the laid-back pace of town life in the highlands. Vegetarian and vegan options are available. Lunch is included in your tour package.
Yen Minh (Pass by)
As you leave Quan Ba behind and continue north, the landscape begins to shift into something softer and altogether unexpected. The road winds through the Yen Minh Pine Forest — nearly 100 hectares of tall, slender pines stretching across rolling hills that feel a world apart from the dramatic limestone cliffs ahead. The air turns noticeably cooler, carrying a crisp alpine freshness that hits you the moment you ride into the tree line. On misty mornings, the fog drapes low over the hillsides and weaves through the branches, turning the road into something almost dreamlike.
Beyond the pine forest, terraced rice fields unfold across valleys and hillsides, dotted with traditional wooden houses and small ethnic minority villages going about their day. It's one of the most peaceful and photogenic stretches of the entire loop — a gentle breath before the raw karst landscapes of Dong Van take over.
Dốc Thẩm Mã
- 25m
One of the most photographed spots on the entire Ha Giang Loop, Tham Ma Pass is a must-stop on Day 2. The iconic S-curve road snaking through the mountains makes for an unforgettable photo that will have everyone back home asking where on earth you were. Take a few minutes to grab a coffee from a local stall, breathe in the mountain air, and soak in the sweeping views stretching across the valleys below.
H'Mong locals are often found here in their traditional dress, and a selection of souvenirs is available if you want to take a little piece of Ha Giang home with you.
Dinh Vua Meo
- 1h
- Admission ticket included
Step back in time with a visit to Vuong Palace, the magnificent former residence of H'Mong King Vuong Duc Chinh and his son Vuong Chi Sinh. Built in the early 20th century and blending Vietnamese, Chinese, and H'Mong architectural styles, the palace is a fascinating window into the history and culture of the highland people who once ruled this remote corner of Vietnam.
Your Easy Rider guide will introduce the story and the significance of the palace before setting you free to explore the grounds at your own pace. Entrance is included in your tour package.
Lung Cu Flag Tower
- 1h
- Admission ticket included
One of the most iconic stops on the Ha Giang Loop, Lung Cu Flag Tower sits at the northernmost point of Vietnam, perched high on Dragon Mountain just a stone's throw from the Chinese border. Climbing up the stone steps rewards you with one of the most breathtaking and patriotic views in the entire country — Vietnam's giant national flag flying proudly overhead against a vast panorama of mountains and valleys stretching in every direction.
The tower itself is built in the shape of a dragon's head — a nod to the legend that a dragon once descended upon this land, giving Dragon Mountain its name and making this spot sacred in Vietnamese culture. Entrance is included in your tour package.
Dong Van
- 5h
As the afternoon light fades, your Easy Rider guides you into the charming old town of Dong Van — one of the most atmospheric stops on the entire loop.
Dinner is family-style, included in your tour price. In the cooler winter months, warm up with a steaming hotpot shared around the table.
If your trip falls on a weekend, Dong Van's famous night market comes alive in the evening, drawing locals and travellers alike for a lively spread of street food, local produce, and highland culture.
Day 2: DONG VAN – MA PI LENG PASS – NHO QUE RIVER – MEO VAC – DUONG THUONG – HA GIANG SAFARI
- 6 stops
- Meals: breakfast, lunch
- Accommodation: Not included
Dong Van
- 1h
Start with a homemade breakfast prepared by the homestay, served with your choice of coffee or tea. Pack your bag and get ready to head out for the last day of your tour!
Ma Pi Leng Pass
- 15m
Ask anyone who has done the Ha Giang Loop what their single most breathtaking moment was, and chances are they'll say Ma Pi Leng. Widely regarded as the most spectacular pass in all of Vietnam, Ma Pi Leng is the crown jewel of the loop — a dramatic stretch of road carved into sheer limestone cliffs that plunges down to the brilliant turquoise waters of the Nho Que River snaking through the canyon far below.
The scale of it is hard to put into words. Towering karst peaks rise on all sides as your Easy Rider navigates the winding road, and a stop at the main viewpoint gives you a few minutes to take it all in before continuing on.
Nho Que River
- 1h
- Admission ticket included
After taking in the views from above at Ma Pi Leng, descend to the banks of the Nho Que River to experience its famous turquoise waters up close. Board a traditional boat and cruise along the river, surrounded by towering limestone cliffs that rise dramatically on either side — a completely different and equally stunning perspective of the landscape you just admired from the pass.
One of the most unique experiences the loop has to offer. The boat cruise is included in your tour price.
Meo Vac
- 1h
The journey continues deeper into some of the most remote and rarely seen corners of Ha Giang Province. Riding through distant villages and rugged terrain, you'll catch an authentic glimpse of everyday life in rural Vietnam — isolated communities, traditional houses, and a pace of life far removed from the modern world.
Pass through the bustling market town of Meo Vac before continuing on to the quiet village of Mậu Duệ for lunch (included in your tour) at a local Vietnamese restaurant before hitting the road for the final stretch home.
Duong Thuong (Pass by)
Đường Thượng road is the rewarding back route home to Ha Giang City. Winding through pine-covered hills, quiet ethnic minority villages, and sweeping valley views with a fraction of the traffic, it's the perfect way to ease out of the mountains and bring the full loop to a beautiful close.
Ha Giang SAFARI hostel
- 3h
- Admission ticket included
The final stretch of the loop brings one last taste of Ha Giang's magic — a cruising ride back through the winding mountain roads of the province, passing through quiet villages and sweeping landscapes that serve as a beautiful farewell to the highlands. Soak it all in one last time before arriving back at Ha Giang Safari Hostel around 4:30–5:00pm (flexible depending on your group's return time).
Back at the hostel, freshen up with a shower, grab a coffee or tea, and help yourself to some snacks while you rest your legs. Play some games, swap stories with your group, and take your time saying goodbye to your Easy Rider guides — the people who made the whole journey possible. It's a relaxed, no-rush ending to what is sure to be one of the most unforgettable experiences of your travels.
When you're ready, the hostel is perfectly placed to get you to your next bus or onward destination with ease.
