Refinding the roots of Red River Delta countryside

Highlights

- Massage and foot bath for a relaxing day
- The calm and beauty of the Vietnamese countryside

Description:

To start with, you will be met by your guide at your hotel lobby.

In the morning, leave the hustle and bustle of Hanoi for quietness of the countryside in Son Tay (50 km).

After about one-hour drive northwest, we find ourselves entering the village, and the host family of Moon Garden, a sophisticated ancient house located in the heart of Red River Delta, will give us a warm weelcome.

We get started with a fun cooking class followed by lunch and a hand massage, very much like high-class families used to enjoy in the past.

In the afternoon, we cycle along ritual paths of Thang Thac village with local guide to discover the Ngo Quyen tomb, Phung Hung temple, Duong Lam ancient village and Mia pagoda.

Upon return to the house, we will pamper ourselves with a foot bath with medicinal herbs whilst tasting some Vietnamese pudding. As a memorable part of the day, we join with the host family in their traditional praying ceremony.

Trip back to your hotel at the end of the excursion.
