Cao Bang 2D2N Easy Rider Tour Waterfalls and Mountains

The sleeper bus takes around 6 hours. You arrive in Cao Bang late and check into a city hotel for a proper sleep before the tour begins. Note: Departures from Sapa, Ha Giang, Ninh Binh, and Cat Ba are also available on request.

3.5 km long, 700m above sea level, with seven steep hairpin bends. It's also a UNESCO-recognised geological heritage site - the dark, pillow-shaped basalt rocks here were formed 260 million years ago by underwater volcanoes. A great spot to stretch and take photos.

Everything is natural - bamboo, tree bark, sawdust, and wild bau hat leaves used as glue. The craft was recognised as a National Intangible Cultural Heritage of Vietnam. When the village dries the incense in the sun, every surface is covered in red and yellow bundles - one of the most photographed scenes in Northern Vietnam.

Legend says villagers once made weapons for Nung Tri Cao's army to fight the Song invaders; today around 150 families still forge knives and farming tools the same way. The Nung An blacksmithing craft was recognised as a National Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2019. You can watch the forges in action and pick up a hand-forged knife as a souvenir.

From May to October the slopes are deep green and often draped in early-morning sea of clouds; from October to January the grass turns a fiery orange-yellow that locals call the "burnt grass season." Either way, the view is the kind of thing you'll see and stop talking for a minute.

ognised as a National Scenic Spot in 1998. It's part of the UNESCO Non Nuoc Cao Bang Geopark. The cave is over 2,144m long; the tourist route covers about 1km past three famous sections - the "Four Pillars of Heaven," the coral-and-dragon-boat formations, and the glittering "treasure chamber." Bring a light layer; the cave stays cool year-round.

30m tall, 300m wide, sitting on the Vietnam-China border along the Quay Son River. We will take a bamboo raft to the foot of the falls - the closest view you can legally get.

ietnam's northern border - a symbolic site for the country. Built on Phia Nham Mountain, just 500m from the waterfall, it offers the best elevated panoramic view of Ban Gioc. Traditional Vietnamese architecture with ironwood pillars and terracotta tile roofs, plus a 1.5-ton bronze bell tower.

ten called 'Little Ban Gioc,' where you'll take in panoramic views of terraced waterfalls framed by limestone peaks and lush green valleys.

terconnected karst lakes - fed by underground springs, which is why the water stays emerald-green year-round. The main lake is shaped like a bee's tail ("Thang Hen" in the Tay language). It was officially recognised as a national scenic site in 2001.

Geologists believe it was formed by tectonic uplift over 300+ million years. The Tay call it Phja Piot ("mountain with a hole"). It was listed as a National Scenic Landscape in 2021. At golden hour the light pours through the "eye" and the cliffs glow - the photo everyone comes for.
