I have learnt about Dong Van Tour through the word of mouth as a friend used this travel agency in June and gave it her highest recommendation. My booking of 3 days/2 nights Ha Giang Loop tour was very easy to organise : I simply reached out via Whatsapp to the agency owner (I think?) ChuChu. He provided all the necessary info and would respond to all my questions very quickly.
I did not know that many travel agencies arranging for Ha Giang Loop tours are actually Hanoi based (where they have advantageous access to the tourists). Should you like to use a local agency run by people from local Tay ethnic minority, I could not recommend Dong Van Tour more. The owner seems to know everyone in the area and everything about the area.
Since we were a small group of two, our guide and one of the easy riders, ChuChu, was able to add few extra points to our program. The food was delicious (meat based and vegetarian) and different every day. Both places where we stayed overnight were great (especially home stay). We learnt a lot about local culture and had a good giggle together.
It was by far my favourite experience during a two-weeks holiday. Thank you, Dong Van Tour.

The experience of a lifetime?
We spent 4 days and 3 nights absolutely MEMORABLE with Hung and Tin tin, what a sadness to end it.
The region and the landscapes are magical, you will take full eyes.
Beyond that, visits to ethnic minority villages accompanied by explanations and stories from our guides were so rewarding. Immersion with the locals is total!
Finally, we cannot thank Hung and Tintin enough for their attentiveness, kindness and simplicity, which have no equal in their knowledge of the region they share with passion. Huge pleasure to walk the area with them who are so respectful of nature and locals. They drive safely.
All tours will see Ma Pi Leng pass, Dong Van, Heaven's Gate etc... But if you want to live a real human experience away from the ultra-tourist circuits, Dong Van Tour is THE TOUR to choose from.
Moreover, in terms of value for money we were well served, the delicious restaurants were accompanied by residences varying between magnificent bungalow with views of valley, hotel and authentic homestay!
Perfect end to end.

What a special and adventurous few days we had motorbiking around the beautiful Ha Giang Province, without a doubt the highlight of our trip to Vietnam! The places we saw and the people we met were very special. Chu Chu's team go above and beyond to show you everything local and special they know about the area, so much better than doing the usual route or self guided. The knowledge and ability of the guide and driver was really excellent. If you want a 'better than the rest' experience, look no further and book direct with Dong Van Tours!

We spent 3 days in ChuChu’s company, discovering the north of the Vietnam and it was incredible. The landscapes are fantastic but the main thing we will remember is the kindness, professionalism and energy of ChuChu. We learnt so many things about the Vietnamese culture and met many locals thanks to him. We strongly recommend to discover the region with him, definitively the best moment we had during our 1 month trip in Vietnam.

Went on a 4D3N private tour with Chu Chu and Hung, and it is definitely one of the best trips I have ever taken. I was initially worried about the trip given that I was travelling with my Dad, both of us with no experience on bikes. However there was nothing to worry about at all as both Chu Chu and Hung drove very safely in line with our comfort level plus with top quality bikes.
During the trip, we also had the opportunity to have very local experiences, living in homestays and having meals with the locals. All homestays were also clean and comfortable.
Also, Chu Chu and Hung are very honest and kind guides. As Ha Giang was experiencing landslides when we visited, Chu Chu always made sure he leveraged his wide connections to check the route that we were visiting first before driving us there. In addition, we had originally booked for a 5d tour but as the area we were visiting was not safe for driving, he informed us to cut our trip short to 4d and even gave us a night of free accomodation as we waited for our bus back to Hanoi the next day.
I can go on and on about all the good things... but in short, if you are looking for an authentic and safe experience for the Ha Giang Loop, this is definitely the agency to go for!

The trip was awesome! We were with 3 other friends in a private group and when for 3 nights / 4 days. I drove myself with my girlfriend and the other 2 with easy riders Sunny en Cuong/Chippie.
They looked out for our safety and went into awesome roads to avoid bigger groups and see great viewing points without the crowds. Next to that they are great and funny guys whom will make you laugh all the time! Next tot that, the team that picked out the homestays and food places did a great job.
All places we visited were great!

After much research, I avoided the corporate firms and opted to contact ChuChu of Dong Van Tours. With his helpful advice on weather and destinations and supportive of our requirements , ChuChu arrange a 4 day trek in Hoang Su Phi followed up with a six day easy rider tour of the Dong Van area encompassing the HaGiang Loop, the mountainous and beautiful region around Meo Vac and finally the Cao Bang Loop. Very comfortable homestay accommodations with magnificent views and very good facilities as well as two very experienced riders/guides were provided.
The experience of having a local involved with the planning made the trekking and biking tours a very memorable holiday and one which we are determined to return and revisit in the near future.
Thanks Chuchu!! We will be back.

It has been an amazing experience of me. First time being here and I made a great choice with this tour.
Taking a 1-to-1 tour with a dedicated guide and motorider allows me to fully enjoy the places and whole routes with lots of pass and turns.

An exceptional experience, my friend and I did the 4-day tour with Ken and Benji, and we had a fantastic time. The views are incredible; you see spectacular places along the entire route. The food was delicious, traditional, and plentiful, and the places where we stayed were comfortable, clean, and very pleasant. We definitely recommend the Dong Van Tour for the Ha Giang Loop, 1000/10!!!

Super fun experience! Very happy that we chose a private tour with Don from tours. Super nice guides Sunny & Cuong (chip) with whom we drank delicious happy water shots after a long day on the motorcycle.
They choose beautiful homestays and tasty restaurants. And drive very responsibly, which made us feel safe the entire trip. I would recommend everyone to book here.

I’d like to go by myself and I can’t ride motorbike.
Is there a tour for solo, and how much is that?
Written February 3, 2019
I’ve done the tour solo. I’ve paid in total 225$, including Mini Bus Hanoi > Hà Giang, 2 nights in Chu Chu house, food and accommodation on the tound trip, Bus Hà Giang > SaPa. I did not drive the motorbike myself, but participated in it. So I could fully enjoy the scenery, without having to concentrate on driving. The places at Ha Giang Province can also be reached by local buses, but this is only a ride from place to place without regard to the special spots. With a very good condition, the circuit can also be done by bike, but the condition has to be really very good, especially in cycling. My recommendation: motorcycle with a guide. My driver and guide was Kien. The trip was worth every penny.

Written February 3, 2019
With a driver its 160$ which includes food, accommodation, insurance, gas and the driver himself (3days)
By yourself the motorbike is 200k a day but you have to pay for everything else on top.
PS the roads and traffic can be pretty dangerous for inexperienced drivers

Hello,
Do you think it's possible to do that with children of 5 and 3 years old?

Les randonnées en montagne que nous avons faites sont clairement trop difficiles pour des enfants de cet âge. Quant à la moto... tout dépend de votre degré de confort à embarquer avec des enfants... Dites-vous bien que notre notion occidentale de la sécurité routière doit être revue là-bas. Si locaux embarquent avec leurs nouveaux-nés, jamais je ne les aurais imités. Les nôtres étaient assez vieux pour embarquer seuls avec le guide et le chauffeur, ce qui nous a permis de faire quelques petites randos de 2-3 heures.
Cela dit, le guide que nous avions (Chu) avait modifié un peu son trajet pour qu'il puisse se faire avec nos enfants (10 et 12 ans). De même, il s'arrangeait aussi pour que le chauffeur vienne nous chercher à des endroits précis pour nous éviter des marches trop longues.
Bref, je ne sais pas trop à quel point vous pourrez profiter de ce type d'Expédition avec des enfants si jeunes. Si j'étais vous, je contacterais le guide pour le lui demander en précisant l'âge des enfants. Il pourra peut-être bien vous suggérer un itinéraire alternatif et des activités appropriées.
Quant à l'Accueil que vous recevrez des habitants avec vos enfants, ne vous en faites pas, les gens seront charmés.
