1. Sustainable Accommodations: During this trip, we prioritize staying in sustainable boutique accommodations that have minimal impact on the environment. These accommodations are designed to blend harmoniously with nature, using eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient practices. Here are some standards our accommodations follow:
- Monitoring energy consumption and training staff on saving energy.
- Using LED lights and energy-saving bulbs.
- Improving insulation to reduce heat/cold loss from rooms.
- Utilizing smart climate control systems

2. Taking nonstandard tour routes: During this trip, we take you to less visited areas and offer to see the famous sites from a different angle and see the hidden areas of Siem Reap, Hanoi, Ninh Binh, Halong Bay, and Hoi An. This approach ensures a lesser ecological impact on popular destinations while allowing you to discover untouched natural and cultural wonders.

3. Environmental Project Contribution: As part of our commitment to environmental conservation, the Vietnam Green Escape tour allocates $20 from each booking to a dedicated project that focuses on protecting and preserving the environment. This contribution directly supports initiatives such as reforestation, wildlife conservation, or sustainable development projects in Vietnam. By participating in this tour, you actively contribute to the protection of Vietnam's natural resources and help create a more sustainable future for the planet.

4. Inserting human-power transportation in the activities: we have paddle boat experience in Siem Reap, Ninh Binh, Hoi An, and Mekong Delta. You will also explore the countryside of Hoi An and the Mekong Delta by cycling.

5. Vegetarian and vegan food: it's available to offer vegetarian food for tourists if required.
