Your adventure starts with a comfortable 5-hour drive from the bustling streets of Hanoi to the peaceful Thac Ba Lake, one of Vietnam's largest artificial lakes. The scenic route takes you through the lush landscapes of Yen Bai province. Upon arrival, you'll be welcomed by a local family and settle into your traditional homestay. The afternoon is dedicated to exploring the lake's enchanting islands and clear waters. You can enjoy a relaxing boat ride, kayak, or simply soak in the tranquil atmosphere of this hidden gem. The day concludes with a delicious dinner of local specialties and a restful night in your charming homestay.
After a hearty breakfast, we continue our journey to the secluded Lam Thuong Valley. The 80km drive offers breathtaking views of terraced rice fields and dramatic mountain scenery. Known as a trekking paradise, Lam Thuong Valley is home to stunning natural beauty and warm-hearted Tay and Dao ethnic communities. You will embark on a trekking expedition through lush forests, across babbling streams, and along trails that lead to picturesque villages. This is a true off-the-beaten-path experience, where you can interact with local people and learn about their traditional way of life. Tonight, you will enjoy the peace and quiet of the valley, staying in another authentic homestay and sharing stories around the dinner table.
On the final day of your adventure, we leave the serene valley and head towards Luc Yen, the famous gemstone market. This is a fascinating place to witness the local trade of precious stones, an integral part of the region's economy. After exploring the market and perhaps picking up a unique souvenir, we begin our scenic drive back to Hanoi. We will make a stop for lunch before the final leg of our journey. The drive provides a final opportunity to admire the stunning Northern Vietnamese landscapes, filled with memories of an incredible trekking tour.
