A Perfect trip - If you want to escape the bustling streest of Hanoi, this tour is the perfect choice. Mountains, rice paddies, peaceful villages, and fresh air are everywhere. The scenery in Cao Bang province is incredibly serenne.

Authentic Rural Experience - I loved visiting the small villages and learning about daily life in northern Vietnam. The homestay dinner with a local family was simple but delicious. It felt like a real cultural exchange rather than just a tourist trip

Worth Every Kilometer - It's a long driver from Hanoi, but the landscapes along the way are incredible. Ban Gioc Waterfall looks even more beautiful in real life than in photos. Our guide was friendly and explained local culture very well.

A wonderful experience - My 3-day trip to Ban Gioc Waterfall was one of the most memorable highlights of my Vietnam exploration journey. The journey from Hanoi was quite long, but the scenery was spectacular. The waterfall was majestic and peaceful. Staying with a local family made the experience even more authentic.

Our best experience in Vietnam, camping under the stars in the UNESCO geo park - We had a great experience spending three days around Cao Bằng. The waterfalls and Eye Mountain are truly stunning—places that can’t be fully appreciated without seeing them in person. Camping was also a highlight and added to the overall experience. Our guide, Luan, spoke good English and was helpful, fun, and well organized, taking care of everything throughout the trip. We would definitely recommend this experience to anyone looking to explore an impressive, less touristy part of Vietnam with remarkable natural scenery. We totally recommend the 3 days and two nights to fully appreciate the nature and villages around!
