5.00Started with an early pick up at our hotel in hanoi. Travel was 6 hours to Cao Bang village where we were greeted for a very yummy lunch and a snuggle with a kitten. After our belly was full we drove up the mountain to our home stay. Visited local villages and common trades for the locals. Enjoyed how glass noodles are made, incense village, forging of knives too. After an exciting day we had dinner at the home stay and crashed for the night. Next day was the caves, look out, temple and waterfall. Returned back to hanoi that night. Busy two days but worthwhile. Beautiful views and people. A must do while avoiding the crowds.
Great Experience

5.00We are having a fabulous and immersive tour of the loop on most challenging roads but that is part of the fun. Anthony has gone above and beyond with his many hidden talents in showing us the area and I would certainly recommend him if you wish to travel to this remote area in the north of Vietnam.
Thanks to Cao Bang local team

5.00The visit to Ban Gioc Falls was undoubtedly one of the best moments of my trip to Vietnam. The scenery is simply spectacular: the huge waterfalls that open between green mountains and rice paddies look like something out of a postcard. The atmosphere is quiet and authentic, far from mass tourism, and the boat ride at the foot of the falls allows you to appreciate all the power and beauty up close. It is a place that really leaves you speechless. To make the experience even more special was our tour guide Quan, always professional, kind and extremely prepared. He spoke excellent English, explained passionately the history of the area and the cultural peculiarities of the local communities, and knew how to answer every question competently. She didn’t just “accompany”, but made the day interesting, engaging and also great fun. We also loved his attention to detail: from the perfect times to avoid the crowds, to tips on where to take the best photos, to stops to sample local specialties along the way. Thanks to her, the visit to Ban Gioc was not only a scenic hike, but an authentic and meaningful experience. Highly recommended, both the destination and the guide Quan!

5.00Great experience , well organized. The tour is recommended for anyone who wants to experience the beautiful nature of northern Vietnam without any hustle and bustle. An was a super guide with a lot of knowledge in the background. The most beautiful was his flute playing, which further underlined the magic of the landscape.
Outstanding trip ever in Vietnam
