MAI CHAU TOURS
Located northwest of Hanoi, Mai Chau is a great choice to experience rural Vietnam. This picturesque location, with stunning rice fields, forests, lakes, and the unique culture of the White Thai people makes it a popular choice for those wanting to explore outside the well-trodden Hanoi, Ha Long Bay, and Ninh Binh. Although there is a well-defined tourist area in the center of Mai Chau, YESD offers you a chance to explore further with trek and cycling tours featuring a visit to the Pu Luong Nature Reserve.
