Day 1: Hoian - Dong Giang - Bho Hoong Village & Trek. Homestay Bho Hoong (L/D)
Morning activities:
Departing from Hoi An and start to discover Bho Hoong Village and pass through Dong Giang the highland along Ho Chi Minh trail. We take a break at the tea plantations before visiting one of the few remaining Co Tu woodcarvers and his family.
Discover Co Tu traditional value by exploring a miniature museum in his house which contains hundreds of unique artefacts and traditional tomb house.
Continue to deep into the mountains. This area is very isolated and the culture and traditions remain essentially untouched by time; making this remote and staggeringly beautiful region home to one of the most authentic hill tribes to remain in Vietnam.
Our next stop is Bho Hoong, a traditional Co Tu village where we will stay for the night. Little has changed in the past hundred years in Bho Hoong. It is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the natural beauty of Central Vietnam.
Afternoon activities:
After checking in Bho Hoong, you will have lunch served by locals. We start to explore the village and unlock its cultural secrets with a local guide. After our walk, we are free to enjoy swimming in the river( if the weather allows). We will have time to learn how to shoot Co Tu Crossbow. Now we spend time to attend a 30 –minute- cooking demonstration with local people to explore Co Tu traditional cuisine.
Evening activities:
The evening is highlighted by traditional dinner, traditional dancing performance and a chance to interact with the villagers, gaining more insight into their rich culture. Afterwards, return to your stilt house where the serene setting and clear mountain air will lull you to sleep.
