Your final stop of the day is BhoHoong, a traditional Co Tu village where you will stay for two nights in stilted Co Tu huts.

For dinner, you will enjoy a BBQ by the river (in the summer time), and a chance to communicate with the hospitable villagers to catch a closer insight into their rich culture. Also, larger groups (four or more) will be treated to bonfire and exciting traditional dancing! After that, retreat to your luxuriously outfitted accommodation where the serene setting and clear mountain air will lull you to sleep.
