Upon arrival, our private Vietnam Tour guide and driver will welcome your Vietnam Holiday, pick you up and transfer you to the hotel for check in. Hanoi, a city where the exotic chic of old Asia blends with the dynamic face of new Asia and where the medieval and modern co-exist. It is a city of a blend of Parisian grace and Asian pace, an architectural museum piece evolving in harmony with its history, rather than bulldozing through like many of the region’s capitals. Hanoi is where imagination becomes reality. Free at leisure. Stay overnight in Hanoi.

Begin this exotic journey North-East from your hotel in Hanoi, we drive up and pass through the undulating terrain of tea plantation. On the way, we will make a break and visit at the museum of Ethnology in Thai Nguyen town; then we keep moving through many other timeless villages near the road. This is the first glimpse of rural Vietnam and sets the tone for the days ahead.
Today, we will have lunch in a local restaurant in Bac Can before reaching Ba Be area. Arrival in Ba Be National Park in the early afternoon, we check into the homestay in Pac Ngoi Village of the Tay minority then it is our free time for strolling around the village relaxing in the National Park Area. Tonight, we will have dinner and homestay with the Tay minority.

Today, we will spend the morning exploring the beauty of Ba Be lakes on the local canoes. After that, we will transfer to a boat dock and then glide along the lake into Nang River and pass through the pretty cave. We will enjoy lunch and interact with the Tay minority in Cam village near the beautiful waterfall. After lunch, we canoe into the tranquil Ba Be lakes for its majesty.
