Hanoi to Mai Chau Valley

Travel out of Hanoi to experience life in rural Vietnam. Mai Chau is an area of natural beauty and unique culture that provides a fascinating insight into life in Vietnam’s remote mountains. Early in the morning, meet your guide and driver at your hotel in Hanoi. You will travel together 3.5 hours through agricultural land and over epic mountain passes to the Mai Chau Valley. You’ll head straight into the home of a local Thai family for a traditional feast of local specialities.

After lunch, your guide will show you around their village on foot, and you’ll visit some of the local weavers to watch them crafting their signature textiles. Purchasing their textiles ensures you’ll have an authentic souvenir. In the evening, you’ll likely have the opportunity to witness a performance by community members, involving song, dance, theatricals, and a few stunts!

Comfortable shoes, sunscreen, an overnight bag, and a camera.
