  • Dong Van Old Town and the Vuong family mansion

A three-day small-group road trip from Hanoi to the Dong Van Karst Plateau, leaving on Friday morning and returning on Sunday evening. Day one passes the Km0 marker of Ha Giang and stops at Quan Ba Heaven Gate for the Twin Mountains before a night in Yen Minh. Day two is the highlight: Lung Cam cultural village, the Lung Cu Flag Tower at the country’s northern tip, Lo Lo Chai village, the Ma Pi Leng Pass and a boat trip on the Nho Que River through the Tu San canyon. On the final morning you can browse the Dong Van market, then visit the Vuong family mansion, Tham Ma slope and the Vi Xuyen war cemetery before heading back. A Vietnamese-speaking guide and a photographer travel with the group, nights are in a homestay and a hotel near the old town, and two dinners are highland hotpots. Best for young travellers, friends and fit families who love dramatic mountain roads.

Day-by-day itinerary

  1. Day 1 · Hanoi – Ha Giang – Quan Ba – Yen Minh

    Around 6:00 the guide and coach collect the group at the meeting point, stopping on the expressway for breakfast at your own expense and lunch in Bac Quang.

In the evening check in to a homestay in Yen Minh, enjoy a highland hotpot dinner and a complimentary thirty-minute herbal foot soak.

  2. Day 2 · Lung Cam – Lung Cu – Ma Pi Leng – Nho Que River – Dong Van

    After an early breakfast, visit Lung Cam cultural village in the Sung La valley, the setting of the film "Pao’s Story", then climb to the Lung Cu Flag Tower above terraced fields and Lo Lo Chai village. Lunch on local dishes in Lo Lo Chai, then cross the Ma Pi Leng Pass and take a boat up the Nho Que River into the Tu San canyon. Check in to a hotel beside Dong Van Old Town for a hotpot dinner and a free evening.

  3. Day 3 · Dong Van market – Vuong mansion – Hanoi
