TRIP ITINERARY

This two-day Bavi Eco Tour experience offers a chance to step away from the busy city, spend time with a local community, learn about sustainable farming and traditional ways of life, and build a deeper connection with nature and rural Vietnam.

Day 1: HANOI – XANH VILLAGE FARM – CONNECT WITH NATURE

Your guide and driver will pick you up at 8:30 AM from your hotel in Hanoi and drive you to Làng Xanh Farm. On arrival, you’ll be welcomed by the local team and introduced to the farm and its surrounding ecosystem.

You’ll then explore the farm and learn about the local environment, seasonal crops, and the way the community works with nature. If available, you can join the farmers in harvesting fresh ingredients that will later be used for your farm-to-table lunch.

After lunch, you’ll have some time to relax beside the stream before heading into the forest for a Forest Walk & Nature Connection experience. You can walk through the forest, observe the local ecosystem, and take part in simple forest meditation activities, giving you time to slow down and reconnect with nature.

In the late afternoon, you’ll travel to your local homestay and take a short walk around the village. This is a chance to see everyday rural life and meet local people before joining your host family to prepare dinner together.

In the evening, you’ll enjoy a home-cooked family dinner with your hosts. After dinner, gather around for a relaxed story circle and learn more about local traditions, family life, and the community.

Overnight at a local homestay.

Day 2: Rural experience – FARM & CULTURE EXPERIENCE – HANOI

This morning, you can join your host family in their daily activities, such as tending the garden, feeding animals, or taking care of the farm. After breakfast, you’ll have the option to visit a local market or explore the surrounding village by bicycle or on foot.

You’ll then return to the homestay and help your host family prepare lunch using local ingredients. After lunch, you’ll have some time to rest and pack before continuing with the afternoon activities.

In the afternoon, join the Bring Nature Home Workshop, where you can plant a tree or make a simple local handicraft using natural or locally sourced materials. This hands-on experience gives you something meaningful to take home while learning more about traditional skills and the relationship between local people and their environment.

Before leaving, you’ll take part in a Farm Passport Reflection, looking back on what you have experienced and learned during your stay.

At around 3:30 PM, you’ll say goodbye to your hosts and depart for Hanoi. Drop off at your hotel. End of the tour.

    Ha Chiang loop for an old boy

    Well what can I say about my Ha Chiang loop trip I did with Yesd. They were excellent from start to finish. As a 54 year old man I did the loop solo with my driver Chinh as I wanted to avoid the happy water and karaoke aspect. Chinh understood this perfectly and took me on a fabulous trip. We took local routes when he could, avoiding some of main routes. He kept ahead of the ‘Mongolian army’ as he called the throngs of other loopers and often arrived at view points before they arrived …

    A memory for life

    An amazing experience! Incredible guides! You almost feel privileged compared to other groups. The accommodation is top-notch; the house, the welcome, the meals—everything is perfect. The mountain trek is magical, the motorbike trek is insane (beware of sore bums by the end!), incredible views the whole time, and super enriching stories. It really puts things into perspective compared to our European comforts—it feels great! To conclude this review, thank you again to the entire YESD Travel team; they are truly wonderful people.
