You can refer to the section “full day Pu Luong – Mai Chau tour” above to see the details. Then, upon your request and your travel itinerary, you will come back to Pu Luong or we will book a shuttle bus to Hanoi.
Other option if you want to focus on this wonderful area that is Pu Luong and Mai Chau, you can start from Pu Luong to spend two full days in Mai Chau. In this case, whether you go by car or motorbike, you will have plenty of time to experience many activities. You will first have an overview of the valley with the bicycle tour. It is a very classic tour but it remains the best to go around. The land is flat and it’s better to go slowly and safely while contemplating the local life.
After a local lunch, time for a trekking in the rice fields. Depending on the season and the activities of the farmers at this time, you will be invited to join them to immerse yourself in the Thai minority lifestyle.
For the overnight, you will have the choice between a traditional homestay, a middle range bungalow or a luxury one in a 5 star ecolodge.
