Begin your North Vietnam 5-day adventure with Kampá Tour by departing from Hanoi in the morning and making your way to Mai Chau — a serene valley home to the Thai and Muong ethnic groups, framed by tea plantations and rice paddies.
En route, make a brief stop at Luy Ai village, inhabited by the Muong people. This close-knit community of 26 families lives in stilt houses topped with traditional terracotta tiles, offering a glimpse into their distinct way of life.
As you continue toward Mai Chau, pause at the top of a scenic mountain pass. From here, enjoy a panoramic view of lush rice fields, bamboo-covered hills, and villages dotted with stilt houses — a quintessential image of Northern Vietnam.
Upon arrival, take a relaxed walking or biking tour through the rice fields and nearby Thai villages. It’s an ideal opportunity to discover their culture, customs, and everyday life.
The Thai people of Mai Chau are not only skilled rice farmers but also masterful in embroidery. Their stilt houses are spacious, with bamboo flooring, wooden supports, roofs of rattan or palm leaves, and large open windows to let in the breeze.
End your day at a comfortable hotel, welcomed by the warm hospitality of the region.
