A huge, heartfelt shout-out to my incredible driver CUONG!! He made this trip truly unforgettable. It was my first time on a motorbike and I was pretty scared at the beginning. Cuong noticed that immediately, he was incredibly attentive and careful and drove more slowely at first to help me feel secure. I felt completely safe and at ease with him. Even thought he doesn’t speak English and I don’t speak Vietnamese, everything worked out perfectly thanks to Google Translate. He radiates a very pleasant, positive energy. I can highly recommend him as driver to everyone!! If I ever go on another tour, I will specifically ask for Cuong again! Thank you so much Cuong! Regarding the rest of the trip: I went on the Ha Giang Loop Tour (3 days / two nights) and had an amazing adventure. The scenery is breathtaking, the small group size was perfect, and the organized homestays and food were excellent. The balance of the itinerary was perfect. On the first two days, the pace was super relaxing with plenty of stops for breathtaking viewpoints, coffee/drinks, sightseeing and great food. On the third day - the journey back - the riding stretches were a bit longer and more challenging, but still we had breaks, making it a great adventure! I also loved how much attention to detail Safari showed! I won’t spoil tue surprise for future travelers but it was incredibly thoughtful and heartwarming. As for the hostel itself the private room and facilities were good and the location of the hostel is quite central, but the absolute highlight is the amazing team - the staff there is just so incredibly warm and sweet! One small tip for tour organisation: it would be awesome to have a quick briefing for the whole group in the beginning (or for less experienced riders) on the basics - like how to sit on the back, where to hold on and how to get best on and off. I figured it out by myself and by asking, but it would have been really nice to have a quick intro like that right at the beginning to feel more prepared. Oh one last thing - you can leave some of your belongings at the hostel during the tour so you don't have to carry as much luggage. Also theres a place to freshen up after the tour, even without a room. Highly recommended overall! I would book it again anytime! Many thanks again to Safari and especially to Cuong!
