Mai Chau

Visitors to Mai Chau have a fun choice to make: they can either strut their stuff on a stroll or pedal their way through the picturesque rice fields and villages with a chirpy English-speaking tour guide, or they can zip around in an electric car (for a little extra cha-ching) to explore the Thai Ethnic Minority's hood. As they meander along, they'll soak up all the scoop on the locals' daily shindigs, soak in the jaw-dropping views, and snap up those Insta-worthy moments!

This is a OK day trip, but there is better things to do in or arround Hanoi. 4hours + 4 hours ride in a bus that have seen better days. Bus is packed, I sat near the driver on the way in, and one person had to seat somewhere where there is no actual seat. They advertise 10 ppl but it is absolutely not true, more like 18 in the bus, 14 in the bike ride. The stop is in a uninspiring place, with a nice view (often in clouds due to Vietnam weather) The mai chau valley is beautiful, you will get 2hours there, but if you remove the time spent in market, the actual bike ride is like 1hour. One very enjoyable hour in a beautiful scenery, but it will “cost” you a full day in Hanoi. The bikes are barely working, there is not enough, so you won’t get a proper size, and they lack oil so much that any gentle slope will feel like a Tour de France Mountain Pass. Lunch is just ok. All in, I would say that it is a low cost daytrip that feel like a low cost daytrip, the bike ride is very good, but a whole day for this nice hour is not time well spent if you stay 3 days in Hanoi. If you have to pick one daytrip from Hanoi, Ninh Binh is much better enjoyment per minute than this.
Okay, could be better

Arriving at the homestay for lunch, it felt like the guides were shuffling around, seemingly lacking organization. After lunch, the overnight and day trip travelers were assigned to their own guides. Lunch was lackluster. We enjoyed cycling through the villages and along paddies. There were stops to get a peek at locals' weaving, music, dance, and village life. I was hoping for a deeper perspective into life in Mai Chau but I had to manage my expectations. The place is lovely, and sadly rather 'prepped' for tourists' eyes. A guide during the lengthy trip to Mai Chau would've been nice.
Great look at village life

Great tour, the guide was a local who shared his local knowledge freely. We chose to walk not cycle so, had a very long walk through the village farms & rice paddies giving an up close and authentic look at traditional life. If you choose walking, you may want to ask if the route can be a bit shorter. There was a lovely lunch included in a local family restaurant. Would recommend this tour.
Beautiful views!

Our tour to Mai Chau was a wonderful experience! Our tour guide Mr. Tony was incredibly knowledgeable and accommodating throughout the day! We had wonderful conversations over delicious food once making it to the village! We were so grateful for our stop midway to visit a little village alongside the road and had beautiful views while eating corn and sticky rice! The drive was about 3.5 hours away and the car was very comfortable! It was a laid back day and we were happy to have had it booked privately. We would go again!
