Tour description
In just half a day, you can leave the city behind to experience rural life in Northern Vietnam. After crossing Long Bien Bridge, the group cycles along small paths by the Red River amidst rice paddies and vegetable gardens, stopping by a bonsai-growing family to discover the art of tree shaping.
Next is a village market with fresh fruits, a lotus pond paired with a refreshing glass of sugarcane juice, the Co Loa relic site, and Hoi Phu village—where locals handcraft brooms from broom grass. You will also enjoy tea and listen to stories in an ancient house around 200 years old before savoring a Hanoi-style lunch and egg coffee.
