Getting there

Getting from Hanoi to Ha Giang

Six hours north by bus. We book the seat and meet you at the station.

Two ways to travel

Sleeper bus: the cheapest and most common choice, with flat beds, leaving Hanoi at night (20:00 to 22:00) or in the morning (around 8:00). Six to seven hours. Limousine van: nine to twelve reclining seats, hotel pickup in the Old Quarter, a little faster and quieter. Day and night departures. Prices in 2026 run from about 250.000₫ for a sleeper bed to about 400.000₫ for a limousine seat, one way.

What happens when you arrive

Night buses reach Ha Giang between 3:00 and 5:00. A Nexus driver meets you at the station and brings you to the hostel; you rest, shower and have breakfast before the tour leaves after 8:30. Day buses arrive in the afternoon; the tour starts the next morning, with a night at Nexus in between.
