- We spent the last few days of our motorcycle roadtrip through Vietnam completing the Ha Giang Loop, a CRAZY loop through northern Vietnam that has epic landscapes, quaint villages, and so much more. It's hard to put into words what we experienced on this trip, but it is a few days that we will never forget.
The roads is for professionals, not for amateurs. Luckily you survived the trips. Thanks to God ! Be more carefully nest time !
Definitely need to know what youre doing!
OMG that one stretch was scary - what a great adventure
It was definitely a hold your breath stretch!
My stomach could hardly take that terrible high and narrow road!! That is a WOW. So glad you arrived safely and enjoyed your last Vietnam day!!
It was more crazy than we expected! Glad to have done it but glad to be done!!
Big thumbs up for such a positive attitude. That road is so narrow and the way your camera was hanging out on the edge of the road was scary.
It was such a scary road! One of the best experiences of our lives though!!!
Beautiful scenery. Thank you for sharing this beautiful video. Good luck and stay safe !
Thank you for watching and following along!
Don't worry Mom we'll be fine..LOL..What an epic journey, but I cannot imagine the terror riding on that tiny "sidewalk" 😳😳
I shouldn’t have said that, it’s probably why we ended up crashing! At least it was all ok in the end!!!
Those roads are insanely narrow and terrifying!! Glad you enjoyed your motorcycle adventure. Really great images.
They were very intense! Glad to have the footage so we don’t forget what an adventure it was!
Love all your trips. I will be going to visit VN in June. Thanks for sharing
Hope you have the most wonderful time!
You guys did come across a few obstacles there, but you persevered and kept on. Just like life, without trials and tribulations, you won't have anything to compare it to...it also makes for better stories in the future when you're old and can no longer do adventurous trips like this. :)
Totally agree! We always call it "type two fun" - it's not always fun when you're living the moment, but it is so much fun to look back on!
I love seeing genuinely awestruck, happy faces..! Great video!
Thank you so much!!! We were amazed by all of it!
Great video, thanks for sharing
Thank you so much!!! :)
I always tip the locals for their good service. Just finished up a day tour today in vietnam and tipped $500,000 Dong ($31 AU) would be more then happy to give a local thar much to get me out of a tight spot.
The world needs more people like you, that's so great!
Awesome M/M. Loved this!
Thanks Wendy!!

Love the video! What time of year did you visit Ha Giang?
Thanks! We did it in January :)
Lol. If it wasn’t for the crash,flat tire, dead engine, it would’ve been just another boring adventure..
Hahah still so epic! 😂 🤙
ONG! How many layer of cloths did you wear!
So many!!! But probably still not enough!
Hi i was wondering if you had the international driving licence and if not did you get police checkpoints and penalty ? thanks
Yes we both have international driving licences and while we were not stopped on this leg of our journey, we knew people who were so it’s definitely necessary to have!!
Maybe you will forget some places that you was visit, but you can't forget the Ha Giang Loop
We will never forget the Ha Giang Loop! We’ve even talked about getting a tattoo of the loop because it was so amazing!
@@megandmiketravels Thank you so much. I'm very happy because I was born in Ha Giang. Can't wait to see your new tattoo
Hello. It's look very cold. Could you tell me thé température you had and wish month to prepare this trip. Regards
It got down to three degrees Celsius when we were there. Would definitely recommend going when it’s a bit warmer but not during the rainy season!
@@megandmiketravels what month of thé year was it?
We were there in January :) @@infrarouge75

Still not enough! Haha so cold!!

Allo from Canada..will be doing the same, wondering if it's easy to get around ? I shloud I get guided tours that cost an arm and a leg or rent a bike and go on my own..?
I'm an experienced motorcyclists but over there that means nothing, it's so hectic.
I am just wondering if it's easy to understand the roads and map
It's definitely a personal decision. The roads are much busier and more narrow than back home, but Mike didn't find them too bad - he was extra cautious, slow, and we avoided all major cities. We know many people who have chosen to go on the guided tours for Ha Giang so they could focus on the views instead of driving and they absolutely loved it. We chose to rent our own bike (starting in Hoi An and ending in Ha Giang after the loop) and we found navigation not to be an issue. Make sure you download offline maps and google translate and you'll be fine! If you decide not to ride a bike, Vietnam also has an extensive public transportation system that is easy to navigate! Have the best time!
@@megandmiketravels thank you..I think I will try on my own and just follow people on the way.
Thanks for the response
Salutations du Canada
@@adv67 depending where you start and end up, we rented a bike with style motor bikes and they also rented out all the safety equipment, we really liked them! They also offered one way rentals which was perfect for us
What time of year did you do the loop?
We did it a couple weeks ago, in January. I think it would be easier in the summertime but much busier also!
@@megandmiketravels Thanks. Heading up there in March.
I started to worry when you guys were layering up.
Hopefully it will be a little bit warmer by then.
You will love it! It’s already warming up so you should be ok! :) enjoy and stay safe!!
@@megandmiketravels thanks and likewise to you both.
It was freezing in Dong Van. I thoroughly enjoyed it. My Wife not as much. Also had some bike issues. First town I got a local mechanic to change the oil. It was a black thick shake. Then the starter motor gave up so it was kick start and rolling start from then on. Kick starting in morning was very difficult. I would do it again for sure. Take a few different routes.
What's the name of the home stay in meo vac?
We stayed at Little Yen’s Homestay. Loved it!
Which month did you go to Ha Giang?
We were there in January!
@@megandmiketravels ok thank you. We're heading there end of February.
is there any why to get a hold of you guys I have a question. Facebook maybe?
Instagram is best! @megandmiketravels
The G in Giang is pronounced like the G from “gift” not like in “giant”.
Interesting! We heard most people there say it like a cross between a soft g and z!
Our Vietnamese guide pronounced it like a z
Amateur biker. Girl, how many fingers do I have? Remember, cat milk. Ok?

Funny how she puts on layers like in Canada. 🤣
Maybe not quite as many layers as back home, but still a lot!!!!! 🤣
