Day 1: Hanoi - Mai Chau (L,D)

Breakfast and then we get well and truly off the beaten track as we trek through tropical rain forest, using the local tracks and passing through corn fields as we descend in to Mai Chau Valley. The trek takes around 5 hours and is quite steep in places. Lunch will be provided at the local stall at the foot of the valley. From here, we pass through several ethnic minority villages, long spread out fields decorated with water wheels to make our way to Van village by late afternoon, then we have time to walk around this charming little white Thai village, enabling us to understand a little more about how the people live. Tonight we will be hourned guests in one of their traditional stilt houses. Dinner will be served here and you are able to sample some of their homemade rice wine! O/N at Van village.
