A Ha Giang Loop private tour in an open-air jeep
A Ha Giang Loop private tour here means a jeep with a convertible top and air conditioning, kept for your own party for 3 or 4 days. Two people look after you: an experienced driver for the mountain roads and a separate English-speaking guide who explains the villages and the history. You sit in a seat, not behind a rider, so no motorbike licence comes into it.
What stays outside the price is the trip from Hanoi to Ha Giang, which the private car below covers in about 5.5 hours.
All prices are per person and valid in November 2026. Private-car totals are divided by the number of passengers so you can compare them with shared tours.

Private jeep loops of 3 and 4 days and a private car from Hanoi, with live prices and availability.
3 days or 4 days in the jeep
The 3 day tour starts at the hotel or bus station in Ha Giang City and costs 495 USD per person. It takes in Quan Ba, Dong Van, the Ma Pi Leng Pass and Meo Vac. You sleep two nights in a private room, and the price covers all meals, the Nho Que River boat ticket, the Hmong King Palace ticket and bottled water in the jeep each day. Choose it for a couple or a family that wants the classic loop at a steady pace.
The 4 day version costs 630 USD per person and runs a longer route through Quan Ba, the Dong Van karst and Lung Cu. Three nights in private rooms, all meals, the Lung Cu Flag Tower ticket, the Hmong King Palace ticket, the boat ride and the permit are included. The extra 135 USD buys a further night and the far north, so it suits friends who want time at the viewpoints instead of racing between them.
Both tours end where they began. Read the day by day itinerary to see how the stages fall across the days.
Private car from Hanoi to Ha Giang
The jeep tours begin in Ha Giang City, so you need to get there first. The private transfer takes about 5.5 hours from Hanoi airport, where the driver waits at arrivals with your name on a sign, or from a hotel in central Hanoi. It is a one-way ride with no other passengers, an air-conditioned car, tolls included and a rest stop on the way. You get 120 minutes of free waiting at the airport and 30 minutes at a hotel, and you are dropped at your hotel in Ha Giang City.
The price is 123 USD for the whole car, for up to 3 people. Alone you pay 123 USD, two people pay 61.50 USD each, and three pay 41 USD each. The sleeper bus costs 25 USD per person one way, so a party of three pays 75 USD by bus against 123 USD by car. The 48 USD difference buys a door to door ride at the hour you land. Night rides and pickups outside the city centre cost extra. More options are on the getting to Ha Giang page.
Small-group tours: when sharing is the better choice
If the jeep is more than you need, the small-group loops cost far less.
Pick the shared tour if you are travelling alone, if you like meeting other riders or if the budget matters more than having the vehicle to yourselves. Pick the private jeep if you travel as a family, as a couple or with friends and want a guide who talks only to your party. Our tour comparison sets out every option.
