The adventure continues through the rugged beauty of Cao Bang province, renowned for its majestic Ban Gioc Waterfall (the largest waterfall in Asia that straddles an international border) and the historic Pac Bo Cave, a significant site in Vietnamese revolutionary history.

As you navigate challenging yet rewarding mountain roads, you'll pass through areas like Lang Son and Quang Ninh, witnessing stunning rice paddies, tea plantations, and interacting with various ethnic groups such as the Nung, Dao, and H'mong. The final segment of this incredible journey takes you towards the coast, to the legendary Halong Bay. Here, you'll trade your motorbike for a traditional junk boat, cruising amidst thousands of towering limestone islets, exploring mystical caves, and kayaking through emerald waters. This unique combination of high-altitude passes, remote cultural immersion, and world-famous coastal beauty makes the Northeast & Halong Bay 10 Days by Bike an truly comprehensive and unforgettable Vietnamese motorbike experience.
