Description

   Mai Chau 1 day tour

---

Itinerary

7:30 – 8:00 am: Hanoi Journey tour guide pickup to travel to Mai Chau. Set in an idyllic valley, hemmed in by hills, the Mai Chau area is a world away from Hanoi’s hustle.

10:00 am: Take a short break during the drive.

11:30 – 12:00: Arrive in Mai Chau. The small town of Mai Chau itself is unappealing, but just outside the patchwork of rice fields rolls out, speckled by tiny Thai villages where visitors doss down for the night in traditional stilt houses and wake up to a rural soundtrack defined by gurgling irrigation streams and birdsong.

12:15 pm: Have a traditional lunch in the local village (vegetarian meal is available)

13:00 – 15:00:  Take a bicycle ride with the guide, watching the peaceful scene of farmers working in fields, locals weaving scarves, and visiting surrounding villages. The villagers are mostly White Thai, distantly related to tribes in Thailand, Laos and China. Most no longer wear traditional dress, but the Thai women are masterful weavers producing plenty of traditional-style textiles. Locals do not employ strong-arm sales tactics here: polite bargaining is the norm. After that, you will leave Mai Chau to go back to Hanoi.

18:30-19:00: Drop you off at your hotel in Hanoi Old Quarter. Finish 1 day Mai Chau Tour
