Why Hà Giang
A side of Vietnam most travellers never see
Hà Giang is Vietnam at its wildest and most welcoming: huge mountain views, living traditions and roads made for adventure. It is the trip people still talk about years later.
Landscapes like nowhere else
The Đồng Văn Karst Plateau is a sea of limestone peaks, deep canyons and terraced valleys, and a UNESCO Global Geopark.
Cultures you can be part of
Hmong, Dao, Tày, Lô Lô and other communities welcome you into their villages, markets and homes.
Crisp mountain air
Up above 1,000 metres the air is fresh and cool. Winter evenings are perfect for hotpot and corn wine by the fire.
A road that is the adventure
Every pass, switchback and canyon edge is a highlight. Here the journey really is the best part.
Room to breathe
Cosy homestays, open roads and villages where a hello turns into an invitation for tea.
The top of the country
Stand at Lũng Cú, Vietnam’s northernmost point, with views across the mountains to China.
Food
Ten places to eat in Hà Giang
Most are in Đồng Văn and Mèo Vạc, where the loop stops for the night. Order the local dishes: sour phở, thắng cố, five-colour sticky rice and corn wine.

Meet Sailsfly
We were tourists here once, too.
The Sailsfly team has spent many years in the rural villages of northern Vietnam, where the people are welcoming and the culture is rich. However, connecting with the local experience and arranging a trip through the mountains isn’t always easy. Whether it’s due to cultural differences or language barriers, guests to the region often end up on a generic tour route in amongst the mass tourism. That’s where we come in – we specialize in facilitating communication between locals and guests. This includes all aspects of your trip – whether it’s bus pick up and drop off, arrival details with homestays, connecting with local tour guides or providing itineraries and information, we are here to help with it all.
