Classic Tours
You will be picked up and transferred to the airport for flight to Dien Bien Phu. Upon arrival you will check in to hotel. This afternoon we will walk around the town, visit Dien Bien cemetery and the museum, explore the local market.
We spend the day around Dien Bien Phu visiting the former battlefields . It was here that the French planned to lure the Viet Minh, led by Ho Chi Minh, into the valley by sending 16,000 French troops as bait. The French however did not count on the brilliant leadership of General Vo Nguyen Giap who somehow managed to place the Vietnamese artillery on the surrounding ridges. From March until May 1954 the Viet Minh pounded the French positions until the French capitulated with the loss of 3,000 men. It’s estimated that the Viet Minh lost more than twice that number. Later you visit the head quarter of General Giap during the Dien Bien Phu campaign. We will have the chance to meet several of the different ethnic minority tribes here, when we visit the villages of both the Thai and H’mong people.
We have a morning at leisure and then we will transfer to the airport for flight back to Hanoi where you will be picked up and dropped off at your hotel.
