Overview
Take some time in Hanoi's bustling capital to travel to the stunning countryside, stay in a stilted home with a local family, eat delicious home-cooked food, and ride through beautiful mountains and rice fields and get under the skin of true Vietnamese culture.
Spend two full days getting to know Hanoi, and the area around it, like a local. You’ll begin by driving to Mai Chau, learning about the fields of tapioca, of sugar cane, and the rice paddies, along the way.
Arrive at your beautiful homestay at around lunchtime. Nestled in the beautiful Mai Chau Valley, you’ll check-in and then enjoy a delicious home-cooked lunch, prepared lovingly by your local host family.
Then, spend your time in Mai Chau cycling the stunning countryside, exploring majestic caves that emerge to the sight of glittering streams running in the lush green valleys below the jungle-covered mountains, and interacting with the locals in the region.
You’ll see typical Vietnamese villages dotted in the rolling valleys, and visit a local family who make bamboo rice pipes and other bamboo products, getting properly immersed in Vietnamese culture.
