Discover the natural beauty and exotic cultures of Vietnam’s hill tribes on this immersive day tour to Mai Chau, a small town nestled in a lush valley surrounded by emerald-green rice fields. Located 130 km west of Hanoi, Mai Chau offers breathtaking scenery and a chance to experience the serene countryside and the wonders of Mai Chau Valley.
Pick up at your hotel in Hanoi, and head out for Mai Chau. It will take a 4-hour drive along the rolling hills to Hoa Binh province, stopping at some road passes for a bird’s-eye view of the landscapes of several Muong villages. Scenic photo stop along the way, enjoy the beautiful scenery of Thung Khe Pass (One of the 10 most beautiful passes in Vietnam) for a spectacular view of Mai Chau Valley.

Arrive in Mai Chau, relax, have an authentic lunch with a local family of the White Thai tribe, and enjoy some free time to acquaint yourself with the villagers at Poom Coong village.
In the afternoon, we have leisurely walking & biking along the valley passing by different villages of the Thai ethnic, experiencing their farming activities, their house styles, or interacting with them for interesting insight into authentic local cultures.
We will take a long cycling tour along Mai Chau’s humble paths, through its small villages and adjacent to its verdant rice paddies. The forested limestone mountains will be ever-present throughout the day, sitting behind caves and waterfalls, giving shade to the farmers as they plow the fields or pluck the rice.
Have free time shopping in Poom Coong or Lac village before driving back to Hanoi. The end of the Mai Chau day tour is at the doorsteps of your hotel around 7:00 pm
