Located just 140 km to the South west of Hanoi, Mai Chau valley has spectacular mountainous landscape dotted with house-on-stilts villages of the Thai ethnic group. This two-day trip offers a glimpse into the life of Thai people in Vietnam, with a combination of cultural sightseeing and soft adventure activities
Day 1:
Hanoi - Mai Chau
Start at 08 00 am, we drive west towards Mai Chau. Stop for refreshments at Hoa Binh town. Arrive Mai Chau at noon time. Have lunch.
After lunch, we drive to the White Thai village of Khoe. From here we will start our 2-hour trek to Xo village. Our hosts for tonight will be White Thai family who will express their hospitality by inviting us to sample some of their homemade rice wine! After the meal, we can sit down for some chit chats with the family to find out more about their life. Tonight’s accommodation will be a little more rustic than you are used to. (Lunch, Dinner)
Trekking distance: 7 km/2 hours
Day 2:
Xo village – Poong Cong village - Hanoi
Following breakfast we begin trekking down the mountains to Mai Chau valley. The distance will be around 14 km. There will be very few people we can meet throughout the trek but some buffalo tenders or farmers going to their fields. We reach Pom Coong village around midday and have lunch there. We have a couple of hours wandering around, doing our last minute shopping of the fine local handicrafts before returning back to Hanoi. (Breakfast, Lunch)
Trekking distance: 12 km/ 3 - 4 hours
