3 Days Hanoi to Thac Ba and Ba Be National Park Motorbike Tours

3 Days Hanoi to Thac Ba and Ba Be National Park Motorbike Tours

Why you’ll love this trip?
• This motorbike trip will take you from the chaotic roads of Hanoi to rural village of Dao Minority on Thac Ba lake and Ba Be National Park where you can enjoy the pleasant ride through limestone country, lakes, waterfalls, caves, and unusual rock formations.
• Located 200km from Hanoi Thac Ba lake is so fresh with the big surface of shimmering water reflecting a thousand islands and stunning villages of ethnic groups as: Nung, Mong, Dao, Phu La, Cao Lan. We observe the simple life of the inhabitants on the lake as the image of a small fishing boat moving on the calm waters, the fisherman putting his traps at the end of the day or a house on stilts leaning on a mountainside.
• Ba Be Lake is the largest lake in North Vietnam and now is the centre of an extensive National Park. It’s surrounded by limestone mountains, waterfalls, underground springs & caves and unusual rock formations with tropical forests.
