Tour Detail:
Day 1: Hanoi - Ba Be
With an early departure from Hanoi this morning we head north towards Ba Be Lake. This drive of 270 km, which will take approximately seven hours, takes us through the flatlands of the Red River Delta and up into the mountain areas north of Hanoi. As we progress north, the scenery becomes more and more picturesque. Arriving in Ba Be town by mid afternoon we will check into our guest house and then head out for a bit of exploration before the sun sets. Overnight in Ba Be
Day 2: Ba Be Lake (B- L)
After breakfasting at our guesthouse we drive the short distance to the jetty where we board our private boat for a cruise on the lake. Weather permitting we can have a swim in crystal clear waters before having lunch. Following lunch we board our boat to the Tay village of Pac Ngoi.
A visit to this small hamlet will enable us to witness how little the lives of the people in these remote areas have changed.
We will be the guests of the Tay people tonight. Overnight in Ba Be
Day 3: Ba Be Lake - Hanoi (B)
This morning we will commence our return journey to Hanoi. En route we will make a stop at the interesting Thay Nguyen Ethnology Museum.
