Set on the doorstep of the stunning karst scenery and pristine waterways of Ninh Binh and Tam Coc, the charming boutique resort of Tam Coc Garden presents a blissful environment in which to reside during a visit to one of the most scenic locations in Vietnam. Found on the outskirts of Ninh Binh, nestled amongst rice fields, the resort showcases a passionate focus on eco-tourism and cultural tourism, promising an enlightening and rewarding stay.
Offering a choice of 16 rooms that are spread across eight independent bungalows, they are set in the serene gardens of Tam Coc, enjoying natural aromas and verdant views filled with local flora. Each room has its own private terrace, offering vistas of limestone karsts or sprawling rice fields, while the interiors are spacious and tastefully decorated, utilising features such as stone, wood, traditional tiles, bamboo and ceramics to create a natural and authentic character to each room. That sense of authenticity spreads throughout the resort, with the construction designed to resemble a traditional Tonkinese village, with its typical stone houses and tiled roofs.
Tam Coc Garden benefits from an inviting on-site restaurant, enjoying a unique space and a menu with a focus on local flavours and ingredients. In fact, many of the ingredients are sourced from the resort’s very own organic garden, under the care of dedicated gardeners who work together with the chef to ensure an abundance of colourful spices and tasty vegetables.

The Ngo Dong River follows through the area and floats through three natural caves, Hang Ca, Hang Hai, and Hang Ba, which are home to stalagmites and stalagmites, wild vegetation and often, monkeys.

Right by the lodge, the village’s natural hot spring fills the outdoor plunge pool, in which guests can unwind in this blissfully tranquil environment while soaking up the water’s therapeutic effects.
Traditional life still prevails up here, and the Muang La has a unique agreement with the village chief, which has allowed it to slot into village life and to have spearheaded several projects, such as the maintenance of the river bank to prevent flooding and the building of a bridge. The resort also employs locals and buys its produce from the village, all of which allows visitors to experience this culture in the most ethical, eco-conscious way possible.
Guests at the Muang La Lodge can use this as their base to explore the beautiful, untouched surroundings of the village, with rainforest treks, mountain biking, village visits, and trips to nearby waterfalls.

Your route continues to other Khamu and Hmong villages which sit in the heart of the mountainous countryside of northern Laos. These isolated villages rarely see 'outsiders' and you will see people going about their daily, working in their fields. There are numerous places where you can take some amazing photographs before you reach the last Khamu-Hmong village of Ban Houa Nam Bak. This large village of around 1,600 inhabitants is close to the waterfall at Nam Pung where you can also enjoy some stunning views across the mountainous countryside. The falls are only accessible on foot and your trek of around 1.5 hours starts by crossing the fields around the village before following an uphill path to reach the waterfall.

Cycle along the banks of the River Nam Pak where many Khamu villages are found. Pass by beautiful scenery and meet working villagers, harvesting vegetables on the riverbank. Stop in one of the villages to learn about its daily life and traditional beliefs such as respect of the village elders' wisdom, the innocence of youth and the communal spirit of the village. After around eleven kilometers you will reach the village of Tad Muan, where you can learn how the traditional houses are built and the different ways the villagers hunt. You will then cycle back to the resort.
