Your safety comes first: every rider's helmet, jacket and knee guards meet European (EU) protection standards, checked and properly fitted before you set off — and your guide always carries a first-aid kit on the road.
A first-aid kit might look like a big deal in a photo — but it's just standard gear for any responsible adventure tour, like a spare tire in a car. Most riders never need to open it. We simply believe good preparation is what makes for a relaxed, worry-free ride.

Frequently asked questions
▸ Do I have to ride the motorbike myself?
Not at all. Most guests choose the Easy Rider option — sit comfortably behind an experienced local driver and enjoy the scenery. We also offer Private SUV and open-top Jeep tours.
▸ Do I need an International Driving Permit (IDP) to self-ride?
Yes. Self-ride requires a valid motorbike licence plus an IDP (1968 Vienna Convention, category A1 or A) — the two are only valid together, and riding without them voids your travel insurance. No licence? Choose Easy Rider or Pillion — you need nothing at all.
▸ How big are the groups?
Maximum 8 riders per group, so your guide can keep an eye on everyone and you still get personal attention. Want your group only, with no strangers? Take a look at our Private Motorbike tours.
▸ Do I need a permit to travel through Ha Giang?
Yes — a Border Area Permit is legally required. HagiangTrips arranges this for you in advance, completely free. Just send a passport photo via WhatsApp to +84 904 044 772 after booking.
▸ What happens to my large luggage on the Loop?
Leave big bags at HagiangTrips Hotel — free of charge. Bring only a 20–30L daypack with essentials.
▸ Is it safe? What if it rains?
Safety is our highest priority. We provide raincoats and waterproof bags. If we must cancel due to severe weather or landslides, you get a free date change or a 100% refund with no deductions. Insurance up to 200,000,000₫ is included.
▸ Can you accommodate dietary requirements?
Absolutely. Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free — just let us know at booking so homestays can prepare accordingly.
▸ What are the deposit and payment terms?
A 30% deposit secures your spot, paid via OnePay (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, JCB) or bank transfer — we cover all card fees. The remaining 70% is settled at our Ha Giang office before departure, by cash, card or transfer.

Planning to ride yourself? Check your licence first. Vietnam accepts
only 1968 Vienna Convention IDPs. Permits issued in the
USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Japan, South Korea and Spain are not valid here — and there is no IDP you can buy that would be. Riding without one voids your travel insurance.
Riding pillion with one of our Easy Riders? You need nothing at all — no licence, no IDP, no paperwork. Completely legal.
