Itinerary
Day 1: Hanoi – Mai Chau Valley (L,D)
After being picked up from your Hanoi hotel at 8:00 AM, journey for 3.5 hours to Mai Chau. As you pass Hoa Binh Town, an hour out from Hanoi, you’ll be greeted with a scenic view
of mountains, fertile valleys and traditional villages. On arrival, enjoy a traditional lunch prepared by a local family (vegetarian option available). Afterward, you’ll have time
to explore with your guide on a bike. See farmers working the fields, locals weaving scarves and more scenes from everyday life. In the evening, enjoy dinner and drink Rượu cần,
traditional rice wine. You’ll also be treated to a traditional Thai music and dance performance. Thai people have inhabited this area for centuries and much of their lifestyle and
traditions have remained unchanged over the years. Stay overnight in a traditional stilt house. Suited to complement their natural settings, stilt houses will give you first-hand
experience into the culture. The home-stay accommodation consists of comfortable curtained-off sleeping areas in one long room; all bedding and mosquito nets are provided.
Day 2: Mai Chau – Hanoi (B,L)
After an early morning breakfast, enjoy a light two- to four-hour trek through some surrounding villages. Take a 1,000-step hike up to a cave. After having lunch, begin your journey
back to Hanoi. Along the way, make sure to have your camera ready for when you reach the top of the Mai Chau Valley itself. After this pit stop, continue the drive and reach Hanoi in late in the afternoon.
