We had a 5-day adventure of life time with Conical Travel to Ha Giang. Everything was perfect from the car, our guide Jack and accommodations. We had great memories with local hosts at homestays of Tay and Yao ethnic people. Their wine was so strong and made all of us happy after full days of trekking. The trekking trails winding through the mountains and local villages were also incredible. Love the trip so much!
