1. Transportation I traveled from Hanoi to Moc Chau by sleeper bus operated by Xuan Trang Limousine. It took approximately 4 hours to reach the destination. 2. Accommodation - In Moc Chau, there are numerous homestays to choose from, with prices ranging from 500k to 1 million depending on the season and the number of people. - For this trip, I selected "The November" homestay as my place of rest. It is located about 2.5 km from the center of Moc Chau town, which is convenient for transportation, and it has a beautiful backyard.3. Travel Itinerary
Day 1:
- Traveled from Hanoi to Moc Chau
- Stored luggage at the homestay and then snaped some photos at Doi Co 68, a grassy hill.
- Afterward, moved to the tea hill for photographing (I can't remember the exact location, but it was near the heart-shaped tea hill).- Returned to the homestay for check-in and had lunch. - In the afternoon, visited the plum garden in the Cho Long small area of Moc Chau farming town. - In the evening, returned to the homestay, had dinner, and enjoyed a campfire. Day 2: - Had breakfast at the homestay and explored a bit. - Visited Hang Tau (you can find it on Google Maps: Moc Chau primitive village). - Headed back to the homestay for check-out and left our luggage for further exploration. - Had lunch in Moc Chau town. - Headed to Van Ho for getting a snapshot of famous S-shaped road. - Then, returned to the homestay and took a bus back to Hanoi. 4. Expenses - Transportation from Hanoi to Moc Chau, accommodation, breakfast, dinner, and scooter rental: 990k (I contacted the homestay in advance to book a package). - Scooter rental and Hang Tau entrance fee: 130k. - Entrance fee to the plum garden: 30k. (Note: The costs and itinerary apply to two people; for larger groups, expenses may be even lower.) I've heard that there're currently off-season plums in Moc Chau, so you can plan to visit both ripe persimmon gardens and plum orchards. I wish everyone a great and enjoyable trip. Thanks for sharing and the beautiful photos, Bui Quang Thuy. ✍Translated by Ali
