3 Days Ha Giang Loop Explorers Journey

This was an amazing trip I had with Lila, what I expected for years to visit Ha Giang. As a Vietnamese person living abroad and far away from my family and country. I always want to visit the north of VN anytime I visit my family. This time I chose Ha Giang. Going with Lila was a great experience, because I like small group, and feel safe with the driver. I am a bit low key, so the trip had enough time for me to enjoy the quiet place, met local people and also chill. One day was rainy and gloomy, not perfect to see the view on the road, but other days were sunny and cool, it was interesting to have different weather too with wonderful mountainous landscapes surrounding.

Tip: if you worry about the weather, just ask Lila, they are informative and supportive, they will give you some good tips for the trip.

The Ha Giang Loop, Vietnam 🇻🇳 with Lila Tours. There aren’t quite enough words to fully capture how incredible the past four days have been—but I’ll try.Riding on the back of a motorbike through some of the most breathtaking landscapes I’ve ever seen, I felt completely immersed in the beauty, culture, and spirit of northern Vietnam. We travelled through towering mountains, lush fields, winding roads, hidden caves, waterfalls, tiny villages, and vibrant local markets. Every turn brought something new—goats, chickens, butterflies, rivers, bridges, and countless warm smiles from the local people.Each night we stayed in the most welcoming homestays, where we were treated to delicious, fresh, home-cooked meals that tasted like love on a plate. In the evenings, we joined in with karaoke sessions or local town parties—laughing, dancing, singing, and connecting with both locals and fellow travellers in the most heartwarming way.The Ha Giang Loop is home to a rich tapestry of ethnic groups, including the H’mong, Tay, Dao, Nung, Lo Lo, and Giay. We had the chance to meet some of them, witness how they live, and learn about their traditions—an experience that was humbling and eye-opening.I want to give a huge shoutout to Tuyen, my Easy Rider, who went above and beyond every single day to make sure I was okay. He kept me safe, well-fed, and upright (even when I nearly toppled over!). He was a true angel—gentle, attentive, and kind—and not once did I ever feel at risk.I’m so glad I chose Lila Tours. Our small group of three, each paired with a local pro rider, made the experience even more personal and special. This was one of the most magical experiences of my life. I could honestly write a book or make a short film about everything we saw, did, and felt. I’ve never felt more alive, more peaceful, or more connected to the world around me.These are the kinds of moments that remind you to live deeply, to chase experiences that expand your heart and mind, and to reflect on the life you truly want to create. I’m filled with gratitude—for the journey, the people, and the privilege to witness such beauty.If you’re an adventurous soul heading to Vietnam, please put the Ha Giang Loop on your list. I promise—it will change you.

We had an unforgettable experience doing the Hà Giang Loop with Lila Inn Tour Group! Our guides were incredibly kind and knowledgeable — they knew the roads inside out and made sure we got to see everything we asked for, including the stunning Mã Pí Lèng Pass, Nho Quế River, and Mạc Lẻo.

I don’t eat meat, and they made sure all my meals — lunch and dinner — matched my dietary needs. One night, my family was craving lẩu, and they made it happen with no problem.

We only had 2 days and 1 night, but the guides worked around our schedule and delivered exactly what we wanted. We’re so happy with the experience and will always remember our guides with so much appreciation.

I also want to thank Lila Inn for refunding my deposit the week before when I had to cancel last minute due to rain. Their understanding and flexibility meant so much.

My family is already planning to come back for a 5D4N trip next time we’re in Vietnam. So, so happy!

Thank you so much Lila Inn & Tours

What an incredible experience! I can not recommend doing the Ha Giang Loop and booking through Lila Inn.

They ensured our experience was the best and were very helpful throughout. The small group size was the best and ensured a very intimate experience. We saw many hidden gems.

The accommodation the evening before starting and the bag storage is a great additional benefit! We also booked transport to and from Hanoi through them (also worked out very well – I would recommend the VIP sleeper bus!)

The easy riders were the best. They took such great care of us and really know what they are doing. We considered driving on our own, but it was the best decision to take an easy rider. Some of the roads are quite technical and also the police were quite strict!

Overall, 10/10 to Lila Inn, their easy riders, and the Ha Giang Loop!
