From paris to ban gioc waterfall11/23/2023 ![]() ![]() If you are getting a ride to Cao Bang Eco Homestay, make sure the driver knows to go to that one. Remember that a taxi anywhere around Cao Bang should only cost about 20k. If you say homestay, drivers will automatically take you to the Primrose Homestay. Which isn’t too long, but when your starving at the end of the a long day, it seems like a long walk haha. My only complaint is that there are no restaurants nearby, so you have to walk at least 15-20 minutes to find food. That started a bit complicated as well, but she knew exactly how to do it and was very helpful. Hanoi - Cao Bng : 275 km at M ình station ( should take first bus in a day at 5:30 ) Cao Bng - Bn Gic waterfall :120 km -> it is quite a long way to get there. You can stay overnight here 250,000- 300,000 VND/1 night. The lady there spoke English very well, and helped us organize our bus the next day to get to Ha Long Bay. From here to Ban Gioc waterfall is about 3km, take motorbike taxi ( XE Ôm ) price is 2. We booked a night at Cao Bang Eco Homestay. On our way back through we tried to book the night before, and Primrose Homestay wasn’t available. We opted to stay overnight in Cao Bang before and after our trip to Ban Gioc Waterfall. They only have a couple of double rooms, so I recommend booking a little bit in advanced, as it is the most popular homestay in Cao Bang. They have both double rooms and dorm rooms available at Primrose Homestay. When you arrive in Cao Bang, a taxi anywhere around the city the center (so, to your homestay) should cost around 20.000VND. When we first arrived, they tried to charge us 50 to get to our homestay, which was only a 5 minute drive away. You could take an overnight bus and go straight to Ban Gioc Waterfall after arriving into Cao Bang, but I would recommend staying overnight in Cao Bang, otherwise you’ll be wrecked. The buses will do 1-2 stops a long the way. Google maps says a 6 hour drive, but on a bus it’ll be more like 8 hours. A sleeper bus will cost a little bit more. ![]() Ours was not a sleeper bus, just a small bus with seats which kept stopping off to pick up people/packages along the way. We arrived around 9am, and took the next available bus which was at 10:30am, and cost 180.00VND per person. I couldn’t get an exact schedule, but they leave multiple times a day, and have different bus options (ie sleeper bus or just seats.) You can take a bus from the Hanoi Bus Station (click for directions) to Cao Bang City. ![]()
