The pickup is between 6:20 and 7:00, and the expressway to Lang Son covers 140 km. A break at 10:00 gives a view of rice paddies from a rest stop. After Dong Khe the road follows the border to a sugarcane village, where a visit to a local family adds half an hour. Lunch is in Quang Hoa town, about 35 km from the falls, and Ban Gioc is reached after a 50-minute drive. The afternoon, from 15:00 to 16:30, is at the waterfall with a 30-minute sampan ride close to it. The night is in a traditional house or bungalow, in a private room, with dinner at 19:00.
