How To Do the Ha Giang Motorbike Loop: North Vietnam's Best Motorbike Trip (in Dong Van Geopark)
This video is a reference for the Ha Giang Motorbike Loop in North Vietnam. It's a fantastic trip that I haven't seen a lot of information about, so I thought I'd make this video in case anyone out there is looking to do the same motorbike loop that I did.
Where: Ha Giang Province in North Vietnam
What: 3 - 5 Day Incredible Motorbike Trip in Vietnam
How: Bring your own motorbike to the north, or rent a bike in Ha Giang City.
How we did the motorcycle loop:
Day 1: Start in Ha Giang City at a Hostel called Bong Hostel. It's the only hostel in Ha Giang (as of July, 2016). Here's a link to Bong Hostel:

Drive to Yenh Minh and stay at a Home Stay. Bong Hostel has info about home stays in Yen Minh.
Day 2:
Leave Yenh Minh and drive to Meo Vac. Stop for lunch. Drive up through the beautiful mountain pass, up to Dong Van. Stay in Dong Van at a cheap hotel. No hostels in Dong Van to my knowledge.
Day 3:
Drive from Dong Van north to Lung Cu, where there is the famous flag pole overlooking the North Vietnamese hills and seeing all the way into China.
Return to Dong Van for another night. See the Sunday Morning Market if you have the chance.
Day 4: Drive back from Dong Van, all the way back to Ha Giang City. It's about 160 KM, which doesn't sound like much, but on a rental bike in the mountains under the hot sun it is. So leave early and try not to make too many stops if this is your plan.
Safety precautions: This is a more advanced ride. That doesn't mean a confident beginner should be completely turned off of it. But it means that they probably shouldn't ride alone, and should be very comfortable with their bikes, and have basic road safety knowledge.
Even more dangerous than the roads are the oncoming shuttle buses, who often drive like maniacs in Vietnam.
Be careful and have fun. =)

23 Things To Do In Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) Vietnam
►Read 23 Things to do in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City), Vietnam:
►FREE eBook:
When I was in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City), along with eating as much Vietnamese food as I could, one of my goals was to film a travel video about some of the best things to do in Saigon. After putting together a complete list, it turned out to be 23, and I hope this list of attractions will help and inspire you to visit Vietnam’s largest and most exciting city.
1. Binh Tay Market - Binh Tay Market is one of the largest wholesale distribution markets, and a perfect place to go if you’re looking to go shopping in Ho Chi Minh City.
2. Thien Hau Temple (Pagoda) - Located in Chinatown, in District 5, the temple is dedicated to Thien Hau and I really loved the sculptures and the elaborate design of the temple.
3. Museum of Ho Chi Minh City - This museum offers a glimpse into the history and development of the city and Vietnam.
4. Bitexco Financial Tower - This is the tallest building in Saigon, and you can either go to the Skydeck or a cafe at the top for a view of the city.
5. Independence Palace (Reunification Palace) - Probably one of the most well known tourism things to do in Saigon is to visit the Independence Palace, the the former home of the president of South Vietnam during the Vietnam War.
6. Saigon Cathedral of Notre Dame - With the French influence in Vietnam, the Notre Dame cathedral is a beautiful Catholic church. Attend a service or just visit.
7. Central Post Office - Designed by Gustave Eiffel, the Central Post Office in Ho Chi Minh City is an attraction mainly for its design and architecture. It’s a beautiful building.
8. War Remnants Museum - Although this is not one of the happiest attractions in Saigon, it’s a place to remember and honor the horrible events that are a result of a war.
9. Opera House - Right in Dong Khoi area, and there are still opera shows available.
10. Dong Khoi Street - This is the height of high end shopping in Saigon.
11. Saigon Zoo and Botanical Gardens - The zoo itself is not too great, but the beauty of the Saigon zoo is the botanical gardens, and the lush gardens, and taking a break from the city.
12. FITO Museum (Museum of Traditional Vietnamese Medicine) - I was quite impressed by the Vietnamese medicine private museum - very interactive and educational.
13. San Art Laboratory – If you love modern art, the San Art Laboratory is a great place to see and visit in Saigon.
14. Turtle Lake at Night - If you’re looking for some things to do at night in Saigon, head to Turtle Lake to chill out, relax, hang out with friends, and eat snacks.
15. Ben Thanh Market - One of the most famous things to do in Saigon District 1 is visit the Ben Thanh Market, one of the major central landmarks of the city.
16. Phu My Hung and Starlight Bridge - Located outside of central Ho Chi Minh City, Phu My Hung is a modern development, and a great place to walk around.
17. Water Puppet Show - Though originally from the north of Vietnam, water puppet shows are popular also in Saigon. I went to the Golden Dragon Water Puppet theater.
18. Museum of Vietnamese History - Probably one of the most extensive and important museum showing the history of Vietnam and Ho Chi Minh City.
19. Rooftop Bar - Seeing Saigon from above offers a great perspective.
20. Fine Arts Museum - This was my favorite of all the museums in Saigon. The museum is housed in a well preserved building, and the art is amazing - located right in District 1 across the roundabout from Ben Thanh Market.
21. Jade Emperor Pagoda - Dedicated to the Jade Emperor, the pagoda has a real ancient feel to it, and it’s worth seeing when you visit.
22. Local Wet Market - One of my favorite things to do is visit a local fresh wet market, which you’ll find all over the city. The ingredients, food, and culture, all stand out at fresh markets.
23. Vietnamese Street Food - By my ultimate favorite activity in Saigon is eating street food, and there are an abundance of delicious Vietnamese street foods to sample.
Thank you for watching this video about the top 23 things to do in Saigon, Vietnam. I hope it has given you some great ideas to help you plan your visit.
