About this experience
Ban Gioc Waterfall is the largest and most stunning waterfall in Vietnam, is situated in the Cao Bang region in the country's northeast. The water is 300 meters broad and 30 meters high as it descends three floors. The water for the waterfall comes from the Quay Son River. This gorgeous river, which is emerald blue, originates in China and travels through a breathtaking scenery of limestone cliffs and rice paddies. Despite being very well-known on social media and having easy access by road, the Ban Gioc Waterfall is still not a popular tourist destination. There aren't many foreign and local tourists outside of the weekends and public holidays.

Awesome!!!
This was an amazing tour! The waterfalls of course were the highlight but the mountain and camping were unforgettable. Our tour guide Dat was amazing and explained everything so well, really paid attention to our likes/dislikes w food, taught us so much about culture and even taught us some simple words in Vietnamese. Our driver was very professional and got us everywhere on time. Would recommend!

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!

Peaceful Riverside Retreat
If you want to unwind, this 3-day tour delivers tranquility. Early morning cuppa by the riverside, soft mist drifting among cascade levels, and gentle boat glide. Afternoon strolls along forest paths brought calm. Local meals of fresh fish and mountain greens were delightful. Homestay beds were comfy, and the entire itinerary balanced exploration with rest. Truly relaxing
via Tripadvisor
Active Trek & Boat Combo
This trip’s combo of trekking and boating was perfect for outdoor lovers. We hiked along limestone cliffs, explored hidden streams, and then boarded bamboo boats for a close-up view of the falls. The guide explained geology and ecology en route. Evenings were cozy in countryside lodging. Energizing days, informative guide, and thrilling nature scenes.
via Tripadvisor
Immersive Cultural Journey
Beyond the waterfalls, the highlight was meeting Tay and Nung people in remote villages. We joined them for rice wine toasts and learned traditional weaving techniques. The waterfall tour itself was spectacular—powerful cascades, absorbing boat trip, and scenic forest walks. Comfortable lodging, warm hospitality, and a genuine cultural connection made every moment special.

Why this scores 81
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Ban Gioc Waterfall 3 Days 2 Nights From Hanoi: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hanoi.
How much does Ban Gioc Waterfall 3 Days 2 Nights From Hanoi cost?
+
Prices start at $145 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hanoi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Ban Gioc Waterfall 3 Days 2 Nights From Hanoi take?
+
Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hanoi is not rushed.
Is Ban Gioc Waterfall 3 Days 2 Nights From Hanoi worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 81 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 71 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable nightlife in Hanoi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Ban Gioc Waterfall 3 Days 2 Nights From Hanoi?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 144 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Ban Gioc Waterfall 3 Days 2 Nights From Hanoi suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Ban Gioc Waterfall 3 Days 2 Nights From Hanoi?
+
Around 25 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hanoi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hanoi and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Ban Gioc Waterfall 3 Days 2 Nights From Hanoi start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hanoi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Hanoi?
+
On Outty we rank every Hanoi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Ninh Binh Day Trip from Hanoi with Tam Coc or Trang An & Mua Cave, Ha Giang Loop Tour 4 Days 3 Nights with Ha Giang Vision Tour, Halong Bay Day Tour With Titop Island, Cave, Kayak & Lunch. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Hanoi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Hanoi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
