Detail Itinerary
- Day 1: Hanoi-Maichau(B,L,D)
We are leaving Hanoi after breakfast and heading toward Mai chau (140km). Maichau is the home of White Thai people who migrated to Vietnam thousand years ago. Now they call Maichau their Hometown, whose diversities wellknown near and far. Enjoy breathtaking view and winding scenary road. We also learn about country riding from our experienced guide. After lunch, we are free, just wonder around the town or relax and indulge yourself with the cold beer by the Stilt House of the Thai.
Homestay in Maichau.
- Day 2: Maichau- Sonla (B,L,D)
We are leaving Maichau for Sonla (170 km), the Home of Peach farms and Black Thai people. Infact, Sonla have 12 minorities who lived peacfully together. Lunch en route. Arrive our hotel in Sonla late afternoon.
Stay in Sonla.
- Day 3: Sonla-Dienbien (B,L,D)
We have quite along road ahead to conqour (200 km), but the view is quite rewarding. Phadin Pass is 16 km long and some part with the gradient of 12%. The name Dien Bien Phu will always be linked with a historical battle, for it was here that Viet Minh soldiers overran a French garrison on May 7, 1954 and ended French colonialism in Indochina. To achieve this legendary victory, Vietnamese forces under the command of General Vo Nguyen Giap dismantled heavy anti-aircraft guns, lugged them up the sleep slopes overlooking the town of Dien Bien Phu and reassembled them. Encircled by artillery, the French could not receive supplies or reinforcements. Today, most visitors who reach this outpost come for the history. But along with the old army headquarters, a museum and monuments, Dien Bien Phu offers pristine mountain scenery and fascinating minority cultures. Those, who go overland will travel through some of Vietnam's most rugged and spectacular mountains.
Stay in Dien bien phu.
- Day 4: Dienbien-Lai Chau(B,L,D)
We leave Dienbien today for Laichau, the litle town nested in depth of the "Great Caynon". This servival community nearly washed away by the historic landslide in 1995, which is reminded by ruin building and stream of bolders along the valley.
Stay in Laichau.
- Day 5: Laichau- Sapa (B,L,D)
The unbeaten road is our today's challenge. Our adventure begins with the drive to the mountain town of Sapa. The journey to Sapa will take the best part of the day. The drive is, however, worthwhile as the scenery that unfolds as we travel higher. Arriving in Sapa late in the afternoon, we check into our hotel and use the remaining daylight to stretch our legs with a short walk around town. This evening we will dine at one of the local restaurants.
Stay in Sapa.
We have quite a relax day today compared with previous ones. Gliding and visiting Catcat village in the morning and go deep in the valley to visit Tavan village in the afternoon. Most of those villages nested in the valley around Sapa can easily accessible by bike. Lunch in the Town.
Stay in Sapa.
- Day 7: Sapa-Laocai- Hanoi (B,L)
We spend this morning to explore the town, you can either test your stamina by climbing up Hamrong peak in the center of the town (2000 m), or just visit the market to see those friendly people. After lunch in town we leave Sapa. Visit Taphin village enroute, and spare time to visit the border town of Laocai. We leave our bikes behind and take a night train to Hanoi.
Stay on train.
Arrive Hanoi early in the morning, transfered to our hotel.
Say good bye to our Guide and riding fellows.
End of service.
