Incredible Off-Road Experience!

Driving the buggy through the pine forest trails in Soc Son was an absolute adrenaline rush! The instructors were very attentive and the views from the summit were breath-taking.

Best Outdoor Adventure near Hanoi

We upgraded to the motorbike transfer which was super fun. The buggies were powerful and navigated the slopes with ease. The cold sugarcane juice at the end was delicious.

Safe, Thrilling and Well Organized

A must-do if you want to escape the crowded city streets! Clean mountain air, well-maintained buggies, and watching airplanes fly over the mountain valley was awesome.
