Mai Chau Tours

Mai Chau is a town in Hoa Binh Province located in the Northwest region of Vietnam. Technological advancement comes with a price. It always feels like there is something missing from our daily lives. Deep down inside, we yearn for an escape, away from the daily grind, away from the draining cycles from which there seems to be no escape. Let the forces of nature ease your soul, let yourself wander into the wonderful valley of Mai Chau. It will be a journey to remember. Although Mai Chau is a wonderful place all year round, it is best from November to February – when the beauty of this valley is in full bloom. Remember to pack some sweaters or jackets if you are going at that time as it gets cold. Learn about Mai Chau here
