What to do with large luggage or bags on the Ha Giang or Cao Bang Loops?

Arguably the most common question from guests – here we will break down exactly what you need to consider when packing for your trip! If you would like a full packing list, please visit our post here.

The first thing you need to think about is the fact that you will be on a bike for several days. This means that everything you want to take with you needs to fit on the bike. This typically looks like a regular sized backpack or a small duffel bag strapped onto the back.

Well, what do I do with my large suitcase or travel backpack?

Don’t stress! Everyone offering tours or motorbike rentals are well accustomed to people having larger luggage. These bags can be stored securely at the hotel you’re doing the tour with or the shop you’ve rented the bike from. If you are concerned about your bags, please come visit us at Motorbike Vietnam Tours and we would be happy to look after them for you. We are travellers too, so we understand the stress of leaving EVERYTHING you own with strangers, but we will keep it safe – it’s our promise!

What happens if I do the Cao Bang tour and am not returning to Ha Giang? What do I do with my bags then?

Again, zero stress – we’ve got you! This is incredibly common and we are well versed in the logistics of looking after our guests! If you are going on a tour and ending in Cao Bang, or self-driving one way before moving on to your destination, we will simply look after you bags for the duration of your trip before sending them securely on one of our trusted transport buses to meet you at your final destination.

Have you ever lost someone’s bags?

Literally never even once 🙂
