Descriptions:
This trip to the northwest highlands of Mai Chau
offers a balance of culture and adventure, set amongst some of northern
Vietnam 's most stunning scenery. We spend 5 nights in ethnic minority
villages, walking an average of 5 hours a day. We trek for four days
through villages in the Mai Chau area and overnight in White Thai and
Hmong villages where we have the opportunity to observe the lives of the
minority peoples. From the mountainous region of Mai Chau, we travel
back to the capital, Hanoi . Travelers who prefer to get off the beaten
track often prefer Mai Chau to Sapa.
