Day trips · 3 DAYS
The Ha Giang Loop with Mad Monkey is where strangers become soulmates over bottomless rice wine (aka happy water) and nightly chants echo through the mountains.
Your Easy Rider drives, so you can soak up every view. It's not just about the views (though, damn). It's the bonds, the belly laughs and the slightly questionable karaoke. Ride your way into the wild north, and maybe into someone's heart.

Travel from Hanoi up to Ha Giang.
Days 2–3 — Ride the loop
Two days on the loop, with 2 nights in local homestays.
