We begin our pedal this morning as we head out of town, cycling for the first 25km on a relatively flat road through the landscape of terraced rice paddy fields and peaceful scenery along scenic routes. We cycle the next 25km up winding roads into the vast limestone mountain range with its vertical rock walls, climbing 800m towards the mountain road past "Heaven Gate 1". As we pass through mountain villages, sometimes covered by clouds, we will receive a friendly greeting from the local communities. From the pass, we can look at amazing views, including the famous vista of the Tam Son Valley with the 'Twin Hills, and observe Quan Ba town's countryside and conical mountain ranges. The roads are twisty and winding through deep valleys, hillside farmlands, and mountain passes to Yen Minh town. We'll take a transfer to Yen Minh in the late afternoon.

We set up early today for many highlights and the most natural beauty of the trip. In the morning, it is an incredible ride to cycle into the world-listed Dong Van Karst Plateau Geopark's heart, tribe villages and visit the House of Vuong Chi Sinh- the King of the H'mong people, where his family lives. The house is typical of the housing design of the White H'mong people, who prefer to live in spotless homes with graceful handmade rock fences surrounding their gardens. We ride rolling hills, stunning valleys, and the highly breathtaking Ma Pi Leng Pass to Meo Vac mountain cliffs in the afternoon. 
After a leisurely breakfast, we quickly visit the colorful hill tribe market before we ride to Dong Van. You are rewarded by pristine nature and magnificent Karst Plateau scenery while cycling ascending to the summit. Stop to visit and explore Hmong King Palace (Vuong Chi Sinh Palace), and then we will continue cycling to Lung Co Pole Flag Tower. After lunch, we ride to Meo Vac. Follow the main road out of town. We will soon approach the street and ascend into the mountain area with incredible scenery and stunning mountain landscapes - Ma Pi Leng– and an excellent opportunity to experience the tribe's rural life.

A daily market in the town center of Meo Vac is used mainly by the White Hmong, Tay, and Lo Lo hill tribes. Tribal women, well-dressed in their traditional customs, walk and carry bamboo woven baskets filled with corn and vegetables into the town for sale. It's a chance for us to experience before today's ride. Leaving Meo Vac town, cycle country back roads DT134, the quiet small road through numerous tribal villages and little local markets. Join the road DT176, and resume biking through the rustic mountainous countryside rice terraced fields, lush farmlands along hillsides, and tiny thatch house- villages and break in the town of Ma Due, and prepare for the snaky road to the peak of Lung Ho, where spectacular mountain scenery, deep valleys, fruit orchards hillsides. Lung Ho owns fantastic natural landscapes that will slow the bike ride. Visit the ruined French Military post before a short ride to Lung Ho market for lunch. Afterward, we'll continue the day to challenge some small hills and cycle along lush valleys, sometimes along rivers, passing fruit plantations and rice fields to Du Gia Village.

We start the day from the homestay, riding rolling hillsides from the vast valley of Du Gia through remote villages on winding back roads along stunning mountains. We gear up for some passes through forest, down to scenic valleys and small tribal villages, sometimes along quiet rivers, then we turn left on Highway 34 (QL34) to Bac Me town, where we have lunch in town before a 3-hour shuttle transfer to Ba Be Lake.

After breakfast at the homestay, take a private boat ride to discover the natural beauty of Ba Be Lake and the jungle's wildlife. We get on board to cruise on the lake. The boat cruises to Puong Cave, which is a massive 30-meter-high cave. Then, your enjoyable boat trip will continue to Cam Ha village, the Tay people's home. The cruise continues upstream of the Nang River. The boat trip ends at the gate, where we pick up the bike and cycle along the rivers, undulating the National Park. We pass through a little town, farmlands of corn, fruit orchards on hillsides, rice terraced fields, and lovely valleys before we end the ride at Cho Ra. Have lunch at a local restaurant. After lunch, we'll transfer 4.5 hours to Ha Noi. Tour End!
