Tour Overview

This seven-day Northeast Loop rides from Hanoi to Thac Ba Lake, Ba Be Lake, Cao Bang and Ban Gioc Waterfall before returning via Lang Son. It does not include the Ha Giang Loop, despite the similar northern geography. Two day distances remain to be confirmed.

The booking form sells the tour at USD 1,050 per person, with solo surcharges on top. The page itself quotes prices individually by group and riding style. Inclusions are defined by your confirmed quotation, not by a fixed list.

Boat trips on Ba Be or Thac Ba Lake depend on timing, weather and local availability. Ban Gioc is planned for Day 5 if site access and weather permit. The final ride from Lang Son covers approximately 160 kilometres.

Important Tour Notes

  • Riding styles (per the page): the Easy Rider passenger option means riding behind a local guide with no motorbike experience needed; ask whether it is available for your dates. Self-ride is for experienced riders only: a valid licence for the motorcycle and driving documents recognised in Vietnam, including an International Driving Permit where applicable; Rew Rew must check documents before confirming, and the bike model and related costs are stated in the quotation. What to bring: long trousers, a long-sleeved layer and closed shoes suitable for riding; warm clothing and rain protection for changing conditions; sunscreen, sunglasses and personal medication; a refillable water bottle and a small bag for daily essentials.

Tour Itinerary

Day 1

Hanoi to Vu Linh and Thac Ba Lake

Approximately 180 km; riding time approximately 5-7 hours. Leave Hanoi and ride north through farming areas and smaller towns toward the Red River region. Continue to the Vu Linh area and settle in near Thac Ba Lake for the first night. The accommodation and any lakeside activity are confirmed before departure.

Day 2

Vu Linh to Na Khan via the Tan Trao Area

Approximately 130 km; riding time approximately 4-6 hours. Follow rural roads through valleys, fields and small settlements, possibly passing the Tan Trao area. Take a lunch break and stop at historical sites only if they are open and fit the timing. Rew Rew confirms the exact overnight location in Na Khan.

Day 3

Na Khan to Ba Be Lake

Distance to be confirmed; riding time approximately 4-6 hours. Ride toward Ba Be through hills and forested landscapes, allowing time for slower sections near the national park. Arrive near Ba Be Lake and enjoy the rest of the day at a relaxed pace. A boat trip may be possible if arrival time and weather allow. Overnight in the Ba Be area.

Day 4

Ba Be Lake to Cao Bang

Approximately 130 km; riding time approximately 4-6 hours. Leave the lake area and continue through mountain roads toward Cao Bang, passing valleys and smaller communities. Break for lunch and stop where it is safe and appropriate. Arrive in Cao Bang with time to rest before the Ban Gioc day. Overnight in the Cao Bang area.

Day 5

Cao Bang to Ban Gioc Waterfall and Quang Uyen

Distance to be confirmed; a full day including the waterfall visit. Ride toward the border landscape around Ban Gioc Waterfall through cultivated valleys and limestone hills. Visit Ban Gioc if site access and weather permit, then continue toward Quang Uyen rather than returning to Cao Bang city. Overnight in the Quang Uyen area.

Day 6

Quang Uyen to Lang Son via Dong Khe

Approximately 140 km; riding time approximately 4-6 hours. Continue south through the Cao Bang hills toward Dong Khe and Lang Son, on roads linked to the northern border region's history. Stop for lunch and discuss any historical visit with your guide according to access and timing. Arrive in Lang Son later in the day, with time to explore the town independently.

Day 7

Lang Son to Hanoi

Approximately 160 km; riding time approximately 4-6 hours. Leave Lang Son for the final ride back to Hanoi as smaller roads give way to busier traffic. If the group prefers, spend a little time in Lang Son before departure, subject to the agreed schedule. Return to the confirmed drop-off point in Hanoi, allowing extra time before any onward travel.
