Depart

traffic, you will soon be out of town (10 km) and able to admire the scenic
Vietnamese countryside. Traverse a region of spectacular limestone mountains,
passes and valleys, as you wind your way downhill to
Mai
Chau
Valley of the Thai people. Spend the
afternoon strolling around one of their picturesque villages, learning more
about the Thai and experiencing their renowned hospitality. Enjoy a sumptuous
dinner whilst watching traditional local dancing and don't miss the opportunity
to sample the local rice wine, which is drunk with a rod.
Today,
you will travel about the same distance as you covered to Mai Chau. The road to
Son La is lined with fruit orchards, tea plantations and towering mountains. En
route, you will have the chance to meet and talk to the black Thai, white Thai,
H'mong and Muong hill tribe people as they journey to work or the local
markets. In the afternoon, visit the
Prison
Museum in Son La, which
presents one perspective on the former French colonial rule.
Today's
drive lasts 6 to 7 hours but the scenery of the Lai Chau valley is both
breathtaking and dramatic. The road is sometimes steep and often rugged,
hugging rice-terraced mountainsides and fording turbulent rivers. In addition
to the visual spectacle, you'll have a chance to meet the some of the most
beautiful and friendly hill tribe people in
North Vietnam, such as the H'Mong,
Black Thai, Black Dzao and Pazi.
Take a short walk around this peaceful town and its market before hitting the
road once again. As you wind your way through Tram Ton pass, the highest
mountain pass in
Viet Nam,
you will be rewarded by truly magnificent views of the majestic mountains,
passes and valleys. Prepare for a dramatic change of climate as you approach
the old French hill station of Sapa. Now a busy market town for the regional
minority groups, the town is encircled by towering peaks, often shrouded in
cloud, and the air is cool and crisp. After checking into a comfortable hotel,
you are free to explore this picturesque town.
Take
a jeep ride along the rugged but scenic road downhill from Sapa. The jeep will
drop you at the village of the Zay people, your trekking base, from where you
will go trekking across paddy fields, villages and streams. Discover a gentler,
more tranquil way of life as you experience the genuine hospitality of the hill
tribe people. Finish your day's trek at a
Tay
village called Ban Ho, where you will stay with a local family - the perfect
conclusion to a truly satisfying day filled with cultural insights and the
unspoiled beauty of nature
Say goodbye to the family and take a short trek this morning before taking the
jeep back to Sapa. At leisure for relaxation and shopping in the afternoon.
