The village is situated in Phuong Do Commune, less than 10 kilometers from the Northern province of Ha Giang. It has a tiny population of about 550 people. Only a total of 90 homes make up the whole neighborhood, traditional stilt houses made from wood and bamboo and with a palm-thatched roof. Thon Tha Village is perhaps one of your best manifestations of provincial, traditional life.

Reviews on Our Service
Amazing vacation in a beautiful country, thanks to my travel arranger Adam Duong!
I connected online with Adam Duong of Asia Pioneer Travel, approx. 8 months prior to my trip (January 2025) and told him it would be a while before I’d finalize. He patiently worked with me, without pressuring me at any time and customized my entire itinerary exactly as I requested with very reasonable/affordable pricing. Adam was in daily touch with me (from the time I arrived even after I was on my way out) providing details and support for every one of my activities. He was very responsive and gave me the most amazing and unique experiences in a beautiful country. The 10 days I spent there are memorable and I am so thankful I found this company to accomodate all my needs to my total satisfaction. The level of service provided by Adam was beyond all my expectations!
Perfectly coordinated Trip of a Lifetime
We just completed a 3 1/2 week trip to Thailand, Vietnam & Cambodia. A huge shout out to Stella N for her amazing expertise in setting up a trip of a lifetime. Everything was 5* from the hotels, guides, drivers, events, food, and sights, and the most perfectly timed trip without incidents. Stella was quick to respond to any questions or needs. We highly recommend contacting Asia Pioneer Travel with Stella N. It was a trip that will be memorable for a lifetime…
Relaxing and fun
Had a fun and relaxing getaway in Vietnam. The itinerary was sublimely crafted by Quinn Bui who also provided prompt response and support during the trip. A great shout out to the well versed guides and drivers as well. Highly recommended.
