Day 3: Sapa Backroad Motorbike Tour to Hanoi via Luc Yen, Thac Ba in Yen Bai: Thac Ba lake Motorcycle Tours to Hanoi
After breakfast, we motorcycle southeast on Highway 2 and then branch off to the sleepy town of Phu Tho. We follow the edge of the Red River along the dyke, almost to the point where it merges with the Black River after which they flow together to Hanoi. By now we are very much in the lowlands of the delta plains and the north’s main agricultural areas. Harvest time here is a sea of activity. Crossing the Black River by a bridge, we pass through Son Tay and then return to Hanoi on the highway. We should be back to Hanoi before rush-hour (4 pm) because traffic’s getting busier and busier.
