Tour · 6 nights · with G Adventures
A six-night small-group tour with G Adventures moving from the rice terraces of Yunnan in China to trekking and cyclo rides in rural Vietnam, ending amid the energy of Hanoi’s old quarter.
Highlights
Hmong batik workshop in Tả Van village
Gentle hiking in Yuanyang rice terraces
Tofu workshop in Jianshui
One-day trekking tour around Sapa
Cyclo tour through Hanoi’s old quarter
This week-long escorted tour begins in China’s Yunnan province, where gentle hiking reveals the rice terraces around Yuanyang, a landscape shaped by centuries of farming. The nearby city of Jianshui offers a city tour and a tofu workshop, showing a quieter side to Chinese culture beyond the better-known hubs.
Crossing into Vietnam, the tour slows down further in Sapa, with a day’s trekking alongside local Hmong communities and a hands-on batik workshop in Tả Van village. The final stop is Hanoi, where a cyclo trip threads through streets dense with scooters, market stalls and colonial architecture, providing an awkwardly enchanting introduction to Vietnam’s capital.
Group sizes are kept fairly small, with a G Adventures CEO guiding the way and local experts adding insight. The trip uses a mix of train, private vehicles, public buses and walking, and it’s wise to pack light and prepare for limited internet access while crossing China’s borders.
