Testimonials

A total change of scenery across a vast land, meeting a new nomadic family each day who will share with you a unique sense of serenity through their simple hospitality—with dog sledding adventures, driving your own team of 10 dogs eager to glide you over the frozen river.
Such an unusual experience, it will be unforgettable.
A truly unique journey discovering the Mongolian people—so different from our European culture!

Amazing trip, incredible moments in harmony with nature, the camps and the dogs. A dream week with friends! The organisation was very good, the guide highly professional and super friendly. Can’t wait to go again 😊

Each day left a mark on me—witnessing the courage and strength of Vietnamese women, these petite yet incredibly strong ladies, the work they do in the rice fields... I can still see them on the roads, walking behind the buffalos. The night on the junk was wonderful, the waterfall on the Chinese border—wow, breathtaking! We had an excellent guide and a truly outstanding driver, and of course, not forgetting our very own Gilles, without whom I wouldn’t have been there. He was with us from beginning to end—absolutely fantastic! I’ve already recommended him to my friends and, if God wills, probably again next year.

A beautiful life adventure, wonderful human encounters, discovering local crafts in every village we visited, stunning landscapes, and above all, great organization! Thank you to Gilles, our guide Hiep, and not to forget our driver.
I’ll definitely do this again in another country...

Thank you to Gilles MAVIET from Aventure de Vie 😍, to HIEP our highly knowledgeable guide, our driver THUÃN, and all their partners for helping us discover this magnificent country—its history, landscapes, the kindness of its brave people, the building of a strong, sovereign nation in every domain (education, agriculture, labor, economy, security) just as symbolized on the VIETNAM flag 🇻🇳.

A journey suspended in time—a country of fascinating beauty and warm hospitality, with incredibly hardworking people so attached to their land, traditions, and heritage. Every inch is cultivated, nothing is wasted. Seventeen days of total immersion with local families, truly flawlessly organized. I left with a heavy but grateful heart. Thank you, Aventure de Vie, for bringing us so close to these incredible people.

A tailor-made journey to the far north of Vietnam. A warm and deeply human welcome amid breathtaking landscapes and delicious local cuisine. A very friendly guide and driver, happily introducing us to this beautiful country. I also recommend this attentive and responsive team, dedicated to giving us a truly exceptional life experience.

“What an incredible trip! A good dose of the unexpected, authentic encounters with Mongolian people and their daily lives, breathtaking landscapes. A team full of positive energy; open to sharing, attentive to your wishes and feelings. An itinerary that adapts to the realities of the journey (weather, fatigue, etc.) and offers a variety of activities.

In fact, a trip organized enough to let go and truly embrace adventure. Every day I discovered new sides to this country… and to myself.”

“I was looking for a journey off the beaten path and I got exactly that... I love meaningful encounters, and I was totally fulfilled... wide open spaces delight me and my gaze kept stretching to the horizon... so a huge THANK YOU to Gilles for meeting my expectations!!! Yes, I truly loved this trip, it was a real revelation... proof is I'm going back in February to see the same landscapes... but covered in white!!!”
