Review of: From Hanoi - Vu Linh to Be lake 4 days 3 nights

The real Vietnam. Our favourite part of our holiday and most memorable. Drivers were good on difficult roads (personally I would not feel comfortable on public transport in this region). Mr Linh's Homestay is comfortable and rooms are air conditioned. A bonus is his fathers huge warm smile and rice wine. We were the only customers for the 4 day/3 night trek. Our guide Loan took great care of us, showing us through many minority ethnic villages on the way to his home for our overnight with his beautiful family. Unlike other home stays where we had our own room, here we were part of the family. A special treat being with his Mum, wife, and 2 gorgeous children (13 months and 7 years). A peaceful village where electricity is just being installed. The 20km trek up hills is tough but achievable and so worth it. Loan thank you very much for this special real experience - our Vietnam highlight.
We were lucky to have Mr Linh's Adventures marketing employee Tam join us. A delightful girl.
This tour company employs local Ba Be people.
If you would like to see the real Vietnam and challenge yourself a little, then Mr Linh's Adventures is the place. Highly, highly recommend
