Mai Chau – Pu Luong Nature Reserve 3D2N (2 Nights in Mai Chau - Daily Departure)

I recently embarked on a trek through Mai Chau and the Phu Luong Nature Reserve, and it was an absolutely splendid experience. The highlight of our adventure was undoubtedly the excellent guidance of Chi, who was outstanding both as a person and a professional. Her warmth and expertise made our trek truly special, and we are deeply grateful to her. The trek itself was wonderfully organized, with every meal offered at excellent restaurants featuring a wide assortment of delicious dishes. Each day brought new activities, all of which were well-planned and thoroughly enjoyable. We were looking for a trek that would allow us to appreciate the magnificent scenery of Mai Chau and Phu Luong, and this trip exceeded our expectations in every way. Chi's dedication and passion for her work shone through every step of the way, enhancing our appreciation of the beautiful landscapes and local culture. Thanks to her, we will carry memories of this trek for many years to come, with a secret hope to return one day. A special thank to Tam too our guide for the last day that was very friendly and always answering the numerous questions we had Thank you, Viator, for this incredible experience. Highly recommended!

We really enjoyed the trip. What makes this trip more personal is that it is organized with one group of people (unlike other trips we experience in Vietnam), hence there is a chance to make new friends. The sceneries are beautiful and the tour guide we had felt really passionate about his country. The accommodations was good. As both Ba Be lake and Ban Gioc waterfall are a decent distance away from Ha Noi the region is not so popular among tourists, which means it maintains its uniqueness.

Mai Chau is a fantastic rural location. It is a beautiful valley with many small villages of ethnic Thai people's surrounded by stunning mountains. We cycled and walked on reasonable paths to experience the views of mountains and rice fields and the lives of these hard working people. Our accomodation was reasonable, food was good (vegetarian selection), local guide was great, good selection of local hand crafted goods. We bought a shirt, 2 dresses and 3 coin purses. In the evening there was a live dance show by a local Thai minority group with lots of energy and talent. Highly recommend this tour.
