It is a question which is all travellers wonder before traveling to Ha Giang. Here is our opinion of comparing morning bus or evening bus to Ha Giang:
Morning bus:
- Advantage: From this bus, you can enjoy seeing a lot of beautiful lanscapes on the way to Hà Giang.
- Disadvantage: You have less time to make your plan, because you spend all most full one day on bus. You must spend one more night in Ha Giang city before visitting beautiful places further from Ha Giang as: Quan Ba, Meo Vac, Dong Van Karst Plateau Geopark...
Evening bus:
+ Advantages: You can save time and money for accommodation from a night sleep on bus.
+ Disadvantages: You can not see any view through bus window on the way to Ha Giang.
In general, if you have time, would like to see vieo on the way, you should book morning bus, if you want to save time and budget, you should take evening bus.
DIFFERENT WAYS TO GET TO HA GIANG
1/ Hanoi To Ha Giang by motobike
You can rent motorbike in any travel agencies in Hanoi to slowly driving to Ha Giang city then Dong Van Karst Plateau Geopark and back . For a good quality for mountain roads motorbike, it costs about 8 USD per day which can be for 2 people sit on. You should drive slowly to enjoy landscapes and stop for photos shooting on the way. Therefore you should have a stop overnight somewhere on your way.
Note: You will have to give your passport to agency, read the contact carefully and choose good motobike, furthermore you should check careful with their mechanic service conection in case your motobike is broken on the way.
Warning: You should be carefully before renting because roads to Ha Giang are very dangerous with high passes, uphills way, specially in the dense fog.
2/ Hanoi To Ha Giang by tourist bus
You can book and join a tourist bus from companies who organise tours to Ha Giang but it really depends. Because tour from Hanoi to Ha Giang only departure on a fixed day in month. Therefore, sometimes you can book - sometimes you can not. And it can be cancelled in a short advance when they cant collect enough customers to make their tour run.
3/ Hanoi To Ha Giang by private car
This option seems to be the most convenient one for you if you have a group of at leasts 3 - 4 people join with you. If not it is kind of very expensive to go alone or too small group.
4/ Hanoi To Ha Giang by local bus
This is the best option for you if you would like to save money. You can take a taxi to My Dinh, Giap Bat, and Nuoc Ngam bus station to book ticket. Bus timetable is very flexible. Purchasing bus ticket by yourself, it means you have to arrange verything you do by yourself: taxis, contact driver, finding the right bus among hundreds buses in station... It is not very easy when you dont speak the language and local people here dont speak English too.
!!!Warning:
- At bus stations, there are many gangster men who are willing to cheat you to get you on terrible or wrong bus, you have no idea where you are going to as you can not communnicate to local people. Till you realise it, you are far away from the big city.
- There are a lot of buses, neither do you know them, nor do they know you. If there is anythin happens to your belongings, you have noone to ask for help.
- During festivals time in Vietnam (Independent holiday, King ceremony holiday, New Year holiday...), local people often plan their holiday in advance. Bus tickets to Ha Giang mostly fully booked very soon. Therefore it is difficult for you to purchase ticket by yourself if you have a narrow plan.
BUS HANOI TO HA GIANG TRAVEL TIPS
It is very important to have a safe trip. Here are our tips:
- You should carry valuable things with you, incase your bags are picked up by other people by chance or by purpose.
- Remembering plate number of the bus is always good incase you foget something on bus, we can find it quick & easy for you.
- Before leaving the bus, you should check your belongings again and again incase it is picked up by othe passangers on bus before we find out.
- Many bus companies from Hanoi to Halong Bay but which is good one is very difficult. In my opinion, good bus is a new one which has been running around 1 – 3 years, so that they have good working airconer.
