We took a day tour fom Hanoi to Mai Chau. It's a vey beautiful place so different from other areas we have seen in Vietnam. Moving around in the area on bikes was very nice, and it really gave us time to stop and look at the beautiful stilthouses, ricefields and butterflies. But the trip from Hanoi is a quite long, so the trip longer 3 days which will be better
