The best tour in Vietnam!
We’ve had the best trip with Quan and An! They were the best guides. It was a very peaceful experience. The food was amazing and we got to see local culture. Cao bang and this tour is truly is a hidden gem! ❤️

Unforgettable Ban Gioc Experience
The mix of car and motorbike travel was perfect. Riding through the countryside on two wheels gave us a closer look at village life. The guide took care of everything and explained the local culture well. Ban Gioc was stunning—worth every second of the trip.

The most thoughtful and plentiful northern Vietnam tour!!
Cannot recommend this tour enough! It was the perfect way to experience and learn about the northern Vietnamese culture and see some of the most beautiful sites of our entire Vietnam trip. The motorbike ride was our favorite part!! We got to ride all throughout the countryside while our guides, Tu and Nhat, explained aspects of culture, history, agriculture, and geography to us. Our main guide, Tu, was phenomenal— he was with us for every activity and was extremely friendly, funny, and knowledgeable. He was incredibly caring and looked out for us the entire time, making sure we got enough to eat and showing us the best spots to take pictures! He even made special extra stops for us for coffee and to watch the sunset on our last night, which was really special. He really made the whole experience even more meaningful. Nhat was another guide that was with us for the motorbikes portion— he was so sweet too!! If you are looking for an immersive cultural experience with a little bit of everything, this tour has it all— great food, temples, caves, waterfalls, countryside, and mountains. Plus incredible service from Tu, Nhat, and the company leader Anthony, who hosted us our last night and made us dinner himself. Seriously such a wonderful experience, thank you so much to the whole team! We will absolutely be back for our next Vietnam trip!

The best motorcycle tour to see Cao Bang and the Waterfall
We did a motorbike tour from Cao Bang to the Waterfalls and back. Our tour guide Viet was absolutely awesome! We would recommend anyone who enjoys bikerides to go with Viet, he is so knowledgeable, took us to amazing food places (specially the breakfast was absolutely delicious), went to see a few templates and pagoda and caves. It was the highlight of our Vietnam travelling and would do it again.

From Hanoi: Ban Gioc Waterfalls - Authentic Experience 2d/2n: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hanoi.
How much does From Hanoi: Ban Gioc Waterfalls - Authentic Experience 2d/2n cost?
+
Prices start at $199 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 From Hanoi: Ban Gioc Waterfalls - Authentic Experience 2d/2n take?
+
Plan for about 48 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 From Hanoi: Ban Gioc Waterfalls - Authentic Experience 2d/2n worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 150 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hanoi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule From Hanoi: Ban Gioc Waterfalls - Authentic Experience 2d/2n?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is From Hanoi: Ban Gioc Waterfalls - Authentic Experience 2d/2n suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book From Hanoi: Ban Gioc Waterfalls - Authentic Experience 2d/2n?
+
Around 53 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 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does From Hanoi: Ban Gioc Waterfalls - Authentic Experience 2d/2n 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 Ha Giang Loop 3-Day Small Group - from Hanoi, (Group/Individual) HANOI STREET FOOD TOUR, Incense Village Quang Phu Cau, Hat Village and Hanoi City Tour. 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.
