BEST THING I DID IN VIETNAM | Ha Giang Loop Tour with Jasmine Hostel

[@acobbler449]

I did two months on an XR 150 in Vietnam , totalled 7100 km , it was an awesome trip , and made a few videos here .

[@liliagramirez]

AMAZING! I wish I could ride my own scooter, it just seems so scary so props to you, you're so brave!

[@CptFarlow]

I did a month on a Honda Blade 110cc last year. It was incredible! I'm going back to do 1.5-2 months on the XR150 as well. I can't wait!

[@MouaadJoumani]

"I just did the Ha Giang Loop and it was hands down the best journey of my life! The breathtaking scenery, the adventurous roads, and the amazing crew made it unforgettable. I’d jump at the chance to do it all over again. If you're considering it, I can’t recommend it enough. The entire experience, from the local culture to the camaraderie, is truly special. Bong Hostel really knows how to make this trip unique!"

[@liliagramirez]

@@MouaadJoumani wow I loved reading about your experience🥹 I couldn’t agree more and am so happy you had such a fantastic time!

[@datgal2u]

Glad it was a positive experience for you as 99% of the people that do it love and say it's their favorite experience in Vietnam (with some saying it's the best experience of their life).

[@liliagramirez]

Thank you💕 It was definitely up there with one of the best experiences of my life. Pure happiness & gratitude!

[@NES-vy6cg]

Thank you for posting this video. It was helpful in helping me decide whether to do this loop.

[@liliagramirez]

Aw I’m so happy to hear that. Have you done it yet or did you just sign up for it?

[@despliak2001]

That’s so good! Thank you for sharing ❤

[@liliagramirez]

You da best boo!

Con đường được xây dựng bởi 1300 thanh niên xung phong cùng hơn 1000 dân công thuộc 16 dân tộc nhằm giúp vùng núi tiến kịp vùng xuôi. Được khởi công bắt đầu từ ngày 29/3/1959, con đường cuối cùng cũng hoàn thành ngày 15/6/1965 sau 6 năm dày công đục đẽo mà không có sự hỗ trợ của máy móc.

[@liliagramirez]

Điều đó thật ấn tượng và khiến tôi càng yêu thích nó hơn. Không có máy? Điều đó hẳn đã rất khó khăn. Xin cảm ơn gấp trăm lần tất cả những người đã giúp xây dựng con đường. Nhờ có họ mà tôi đã có thể trải nghiệm điều kỳ diệu ở Hà Giang!

[@thuymientran6676]

Wow! That’s some AMAZING facts, and all my respect even more so for those young people. Thank you for sharing that bit of history on how the roads were built.

[@frankaugusthinnerkrademann6881]

I love to hear a comment on the history of that road. Thank you very much 🙏🙏🙏

[@Ducanhbe]

I am a member of JASMIEN and I also thank you for coming and we hope you can come back to Ha Giang again thank you

[@liliagramirez]

Aww thank you for an amazing time! I hope to come back too. Highlight of my Vietnamese trip😍

[@alexakendell8846]

Hey! This might be a dumb question lol, but did you have service the entire time?

[@liliagramirez]

No that’s a great question! I would say 90% of the time I did. Some spots were really slow but there was always WiFi at the accommodations!

[@alexakendell8846]

Thank you so so much!!! ♥️

[@fumefume4764]

Hey! How many days in total do you need to do the loop if I’m coming from Hanoi? I’m worried I won’t have enough time to fit it in 😢

[@liliagramirez]

@@fumefume4764 hi there! I did this through a tour with Jasmine tour and they have 3 and 4 day options. I did the 3 day option but wished I did the 4 day option!

[@hannaJardin]

Which motorcycle agency that you booked for thus tour?

[@thuymientran6676]

She did mention she booked with Jasmine Packer Hostel, leaving from Ha Noi to Ha Giang on the night bus, included with the tour price, & the name of the tour is also on the title of this clip.

[@liliagramirez]

Yes exactly, thank you Thuy! Sorry for the late reply but exactly waist Thuy said and I booked through my hostel in Hanoi, Hanoi Backpackers & Rooftop Bar!

[@Ashleycharles-c4t]

Hi, did you booked in advance ? If yes, did you booked it online or directly with the hostel?

[@acobbler449]

I booked an XR 150 in advance with Tigit Motorbikers

[@liliagramirez]

I booked it in person through my hostel in Hanoi (Hanoi Backpackers Hostel & Rooftop). I did so a few days before so I don't think you need to worry about it being 'sold out'. Or you can book directly through Jasmine Tours!

[@thuymientran6676]

Which month did you go for it to be that cold?

[@liliagramirez]

I went in March and actually it was pretty warm for most of our trip. Other weekends it was rainy the whole time :( we were lucky!

[@jessmontanez6902]

when you book this through Jasmine tours, did you get leave some of your stuff so you don't bring them all throughout the loop?

[@liliagramirez]

@@jessmontanez6902 yes! I booked through my hostel Hanoi Backpackers Hostel & Rooftop Bar and they let me leave my big backpack so I only had to bring a little one! Much much easier that way, I recommend it!

[@taztalor]

amazing vlog what time of year did you do the loop

[@liliagramirez]

I did this towards the end of March!

[@lucymatthews9167]

Hey! Im looking to book this tour with Jasmine hostel. Were there many solo travellers? Im travelling solo and don't want to be the only person not in a group! xx

[@rlph691]

when are you going to do it? also a solo traveller will be doing it around end of October 2023

[@JatinKumarPatro]

Same. Planning for this month

[@judyle7155]

Oooo, me too!!! Solo traveller planning to do Ha Giang loop around end of October too!!!

[@liliagramirez]

Sorry for such a late reply. I’m not sure if you’ve had your solo trip yet! Congrats by the way it’s a really special and rewarding experience. But Vietnam is a country perfect for solo traveling because you do not stay solo long. I’d love to hear how your experience was :)

[@sadcatto6705]

How did you book this, did you do it online or in person? im planning on doing this in December!

[@liliagramirez]

oh you are going to LOVE this! I booked it in person through my hostel in Hanoi (Hanoi Backpackers Hostel & Rooftop). I did so a few days before so I don't think you need to worry about it being 'sold out'. Or you can book directly through Jasmine Tours!

[@sadcatto6705]

@@liliagramirez Thank you! I booked it online in advance so I didnt have to worry! im so excited

[@liliagramirez]

@@sadcatto6705 yay!!🥳 oh you are going to LOVE it. My favorite thing I did in Vietnam, you’re in for a treat!

[@juelladsouza2075]

Did you carry all your luggage with you that you bought for your entire trip to vietnam? Im assuming you didnt just carry 2 small backpacks. Let me know.

[@liliagramirez]

We left our big suitcases at our hostel in Hanoi, or you can leave them at the one in Ha Giang and take one small backpack for the trip. Highly recommend doing this. You can only fit so much on the bike.

[@vicky88151]

Amazing video , loved it. What a spectacular view. Can you help me with the name of the second hostel ?

[@liliagramirez]

The one I stayed and booked though in Hanoi was called: Hanoi Backpackers Hostel & Rooftop. The tour hostel was Jasmine Hostel Ha Giang. I hope that helps!

[@vicky88151]

Hey lili , thank you for the response. I got back from vietnam last week haha 😅. But yea did the ha giang loop. Can’t recommend enough. Great experience

[@liliagramirez]

@@vicky88151 oh shoot! I’m sorry😩 I hope you had the best time ever! Wasn’t it magical? What was your favorite part? (I know such a hard question)

🏍️I just did this same exact tour in December! This vlog was one of a few videos that inspired me to book Jasmine, so thank you!😊 Vlogged it, also on my channel🎥 I love your videos!❤x

Aww amazing! I’m so happy you enjoyed your experience with Jasmine! I can’t wait to check out your vlog on your experience. It’ll be fun to relive the magic from a different perspective 🥰

It’s corn wine, home brew & very potent. Just hope your easy rider is not drunk by the next morning, having you as his pillion on his bike, making those hair pin turns by the very edge of the cliffs. 😅

[@liliagramirez]

SO POTENT!! I had the best easy rider he was so safe and cautious. I felt very comfortable!
