点评:My wife and I had a fabulous three day tour with Majestic Tour & Travel - the scenery on the Loop was spectacular and the ride was magnificent.
Our group was amazing - both the Easyriders and the other travelers. The Majestic team were lots of fun, were all skilled riders, and were all super nice.
My Easyrider, Dung (pronounced "Zoong"), was very personable, and was incredibly conscientious and attentive while negotiating the road's varying terrain. It's obvious that he's very skilled and comfortable riding the Loop. I felt very safe and was able to take in all the views while he did all of the difficult stuff. I would definitely recommend Dung to anyone who is interested in having a memorable trip.
The accommodations and meals were exceptional. Sure, hostels may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I had an amazing night's sleep at the Pura Homestay; so quiet, dark, and comfy! All of the meals were plentiful and delicious. So good!
There were plenty of stops along the route, too. Small village experiences and mountain outposts were aplenty. There's so much to take in. The views are sublime. It's awe inspiring. My only suggestion for these stops, however, would be a change in music - if anything, I would hope for traditional Vietnamese or something more reflective of the surroundings. The party music didn't seem to fit the experience or surroundings. That said, some of the karaoke was pretty solid.
The only negatives we experienced were the getting to and from Ha Giang. The overnight bus to and from Ha Giang, and the first night's hostel stay, were incredibly disorganized and lacking effective/helpful communication:
1. We had to be shuttled by three transfer vans in order to get the bus going to Ha Giang;
2. We arrived way later than originally expressed (3:30 am instead of 1:30 am) to a dark hostel and had to wake the attendant to check in, turn on the lights and show us to the dorm room;
3. The return bus to Hanoi was also way later than originally expressed (arrived in Hanoi after 3 am instead of around 11:30 pm);
4. Once back in Hanoi, we were immediately overwhelmed/swarmed by taxi guys while getting off the bus, presenting themselves as part of the tour - incredibly persistent and in our personal space. Not cool.
Nevertheless, Dung and the Majestic lads helped us have a fabulous trip around the Loop. That's the important thing. We wish them all the best.
翻译:我和妻子参加了 Majestic Tour & Travel 组织的三天精彩之旅 - 环线的风景非常壮观,骑行也非常精彩。
我们的团队非常棒 - Easyriders 和其他旅行者都是如此。Majestic 团队非常有趣,都是技术娴熟的骑手,而且都非常好。
我的 Easyrider Dung(发音为“Zoong”)非常亲切,在应对道路上各种地形时非常认真和专注。很明显,他骑环线技术娴熟,骑起来很舒服。我感到非常安全,在他完成所有困难任务时,我能够欣赏到所有的景色。我绝对会向任何想要拥有一次难忘旅行的人推荐 Dung。
住宿和餐饮都非常棒。当然,青年旅社可能不是每个人的菜,但我在 Pura Homestay 睡了一个很棒的晚上;非常安静、黑暗和舒适!所有的饭菜都很丰盛和美味。太棒了!
沿途也有很多站点。小村庄体验和山地前哨很多。有太多东西可以欣赏。景色壮丽。令人敬畏。然而,我对这些站点的唯一建议是改变音乐 - 如果有的话,我希望是传统的越南音乐或更能反映周围环境的音乐。派对音乐似乎与体验或环境不相符。话虽如此,一些卡拉 OK 相当不错。
我们遇到的唯一缺点是往返河江的交通。往返河江的夜间巴士和第一晚的旅馆住宿非常混乱,缺乏有效/有用的沟通:
1. 我们不得不乘坐三辆换乘车才能乘坐前往河江的巴士;
2. 我们到达时比原计划晚了很多(凌晨 3:30 而不是凌晨 1:30),旅馆里一片漆黑,我们不得不叫醒服务员办理入住手续,打开灯,带我们去宿舍;
3. 回河内的巴士也比原计划晚了很多(凌晨 3 点后到达河内,而不是晚上 11:30 左右);
4. 回到河内后,我们一下车就被出租车司机团团围住,他们自称是旅行团的一员——非常执着,侵犯了我们的私人空间。真不酷。
尽管如此,Dung 和 Majestic 小伙子们还是帮助我们在 Loop 度过了一段美妙的旅程。这才是最重要的。我们祝他们一切顺利。
