The Ta Xua landscapes were stunning and the organisation was seamless. From the pick up in Hanoi, to the very charming and warm welcome at the homestay (very clean) to the great meals cooked along the way. We went for a 3D2N trek up to Ta Xua Mountain surrounded by Hmong and Thai ethnies. The trek was amazing but quite though so we ended up doing 2D1N, which was really great as we took 1 more day to explore the valley. We can highly recommand Zonitrip for any adventurous trek. In addition to the very well organised trip, we had an amazing time thanks to Zoni's kindness, attentiveness overall happiness. We will never forget this trip. <3 We highly recommand Zoni and the Ta Xua climb to anyone looking for off the beaten path, high energy experiences - you won't regret it.

The Unique Mysterious place along the Chinese border– a mythical combination of conical limestone peaks and deep, craterous valleys. Ha Giang considered the last frontier for adventurous travel in Vietnam, with mountain passes hanging onto cliff-faces high above green beautiful rivers, and back-roads threading through forests of limestone pinnacles, it’s ideal place for an adventure trip .

Tour guide quang was great! Very funny and spoke good English and gave very good information. Would highly recommend doing this if your not sure what to do with a spare day from Hanoi as they pick you straight up from your accommodation. The river was beautiful and the mountains with incredible view.

The trip was well organized, our drivers were very professional and drove carefully. The views were beautiful and the food was great as well. But the highlight was our guide King Kong. He really made this trip outstanding, he was so nice, funny and knowledgeable. What's more, our guide and drivers brought socks and gloves for the kids in the villages. That was very caring and sweet. Definitely recommend this trip with Vietnam Cheers hostel

Minh picked us up on time at the airport and drove us to Ha Giang. His car was very clean and he was both pleasant and very informed about the areas we were driving through. When he drives you get both a driver and a tour guide. His service was amazing and we had him drive us from Ha Giang to Cao Bang and back to Hanoi a few days later. Again, he was very familiar with the areas, drove very well on difficult roads. The reason we hired a driver was to keep my wife happy on the trip - I am sure she is not the only woman in the world that disagrees with her husbands driving. I haveno complaints at all. I would highly recommend his services as a driver!

We chose Mr Linh's based on our friends' recommendation. The replies from the agent were prompt, and it was easy to make changes or ask questions. Our itinerary was fairly straight forward, and you can check all the accommodations as they provide an itinerary with links to hotels and homestays. Both our guide and driver were excellent. At all times we felt safe when Mr Long was behind the wheel. Mr Son was very knowledgeable about the area, and he also picked up quickly our favourite dishes and our average hiking/trekking speed. We did a 9D/8N trip, and had to do small changes along the way (like skipping motorbike riding as it was a rainy day going from Ha Giang to Dong Van, and then staying one extra night in Dong Van waiting for the rain to stop). The changes were not an issue to Mr Son. We had a small misunderstanding, but even that was duly noted and communicated to us. We went to places where there were no other tourists, and it was really wonderful to enjoy the fresh air, amazing sceneries, colourful tribes and see people at their daily chores. Our itinerary was Hanoi-Hoang Su Phi-Ban Phung-Ha Giang-Dong Van-Cao Bang/Quang Uyen-Ban Gioc Falls-Quang Uyen-Hanoi. To see the rice fields in full colour, I would suggest going latest early October. Around mid-October a lot of the rice had already been harvested, but still plenty being harvested by the locals, mostly women. I would strongly recommend Mr Linh's for travels to Northern Vietnam.

I had a couple of emails from the guide before I arrived which was reassuring. I was picked up at the designated time of 0745 and taken to a Toyota Land Cruiser in very good condition. The trip turned out just to be got two but that was fine. Travel took 2.5 hours with the obligatory stop at a shop ( I gas been here already on an earlier trip. Arrived and taken to a covered towed boat which should have been for four but we had to ourselves. Was advised that feb to April this would be the case as thousands go in that period. We had the river to ourselves apart from a few locals and the ride through the beautiful scenery took an hour. The boat seats were metal so I was struggling to be comfortable at the end and glad to get off. From here we saw the first temple the first of many steps in stifling heat. It was at this point I decided to take the cable car to the pagoda and boy what a great section when I saw the steepness of the steps, uphill and distant in 40 degree heat. Cost me an extra 180000 but worth it. We then had lunch which was enormous and quite ok. Beer was 400000 Then we stated off to cable car - having thought I dodged the steps but no there were more. No queues fir cable car as quiet but told usually an hour wait each way. When we get off guess what more steps down to the cave which for me was hard work. The cave was beautiful and amazing to see, well worth the struggle. Then the way back the steps in the cave were slippy do have good shoes and the climb back up to the cable was hard but the guide went slowly without making me feel like I was holding the group back. Then back to the boat fir an hour back. I don’t like being told to tip but was recommended a dollar do I did only to be greeted with abuse from the rower who was demanding five dollars from us and quite nasty .. wish I hadn’t given her anything with that attitude. Then two hours drive back and in the hotel by 1700.
