Hi JoslynKaileyBanks

Highlights of Mai Chau journeys are staying overnight in Thai stilt house, walking across the beautiful valley through rice fields and light or hard trekking to nearby villages.

You can travel to Mai Chau all year round; but the best period is from September to April of next year when it doesn't rain much and this weather is perfect for trekking.

But you need to know that: Homestay condition is basic. Mattresses and mosquito nets are provided. Before tour, bring along with you good walking shoes, raincoats, jackets, torch, insect repellent and sunscreen. In the evening, communicate with villagers and they can help to organize traditional dance performance at a reasonable price.
