Amazing

1 month ago

La guida è stata bravissima, abbiamo mangiato bene e abbondantemente, il giro in bici è stato adorabile come anche incontrare le donne del paese che ci hanno mostrato il lavoro al telaio e danze festive. Sfortunatamente il viaggio è lungo in minibus per questo il tempo è poco a mai chau ed è un peccato.

Great short bike loop through the villages and rice fields of Mai Chau. It was especially interesting to get more background information about the local ethnic minority, also giving you the chance try out some of the activities they show you. The bikes were not the best/most comfortable but I could make do.

The place was beautiful, and the lunch amazing! Our guide Sonny was the best and show us around, He also shared some of the history and culture of the Vietnamese minority living there. It was a really meaningful experience, I just wish we’d had more time!

The bus ride to the Mai Chau Valley takes quite some time, but the view of the valley with its many green rice fields makes up for it. The residents of the valley are all extremely friendly and welcoming.
We were able to observe the weaving art and the traditional stick dances. The stilt houses were also interesting, as well as visiting their interiors. Dan, our tour guide, explained everything in great detail and showed us interesting photo spots during the bike ride. We can highly recommend Dan as a tour guide.


Highlights

Leave Hanoi behind and spend a day cycling through Mai Chau Valley, surrounded by mountains and rice fields. On the way, stop at Thung Khe Pass to take in views over the valley, then enjoy a traditional lunch with a local White Thai family. In the afternoon, ride along village lanes between the paddies to Poom Coong and Na Phon villages and see Thai traditions such as weaving up close. Choose the 2-day option to stay overnight in Mai Chau and trek to the rice terraces of Pu Luong Nature Reserve.


Program

 

Head from Hanoi to Mai Chau Valley
