As a pioneer in sustainable community building activities, Vietravel continues to affirm its role through the combination of tourism and social responsibility (CSR), arousing the spirit of sharing, loving nature and protecting rare animals - especially the red-crowned crane, a symbol of green life and ecological balance. This is clearly demonstrated through the Western tour: Dong Thap - Tram Chim National Park - Experience making cajuput paintings - My Phuoc Thanh Eco-tourism Area - Xeo Quit Relic Area - Green dream in the land of pink lotus in the product set "Summer fun exploring Vietnam with children".
Summer, instead of being associated with hours in front of the screen, has now become an ideal occasion for the whole family to explore, learn and sow green memories in children's souls through the following unique Western travel experiences:

This place has a beautiful natural landscape with the immense green of Melaleuca forests and rich vegetation (more than 130 different species) on a vast river area. In particular, the national park has many rare bird species listed in the Vietnam Red Book and the IUCN Red Book such as: white-winged duck, egret, sen, grey-legged pelican, old wolf..., especially the red-crowned crane - the largest water bird in the Crane family, which needs to be protected because it is in danger of extinction in the world.

Located in the fertile land of Dong Thap, the Xeo Quit relic site in the territory of My Long and My Hiep communes (Cao Lanh district) has long been an attractive destination. This heroic land leaves an impression on visitors with its cultural and historical values and the diversity and richness of its natural resources. Xeo Quit is also attractive thanks to its methodical and sustainable tourism services based on the community... With an area of 70 hectares, it was once the revolutionary base of Kien Phong Provincial Party Committee during the resistance war against the US. This place preserves many relics such as secret tunnels, Z-shaped fortifications and "deadly grounds" that once fought against enemy helicopters and tanks.
In addition to its historical value, Xeo Quit also attracts tourists thanks to its 20-hectare primeval Melaleuca forest ecosystem and more than 200 animal species, including many rare species listed in the Red Book. This is an ideal place for tourism volunteers to participate in volunteer activities combining nature conservation and community education.
Choosing to combine tourism with CSR at Xeo Quit, visitors will have the opportunity to sit in a sampan to explore the cajuput forest, listen to traditional folk songs from tour guides in traditional costumes, and can participate in gift giving, tree planting, or life skills training programs for local children.

During your journey to explore the tourist destinations in the West, you will not only be immersed in the cool natural space but also have the opportunity to participate in making Melaleuca paintings with artisans, create paintings from Melaleuca bark yourself and bring home a unique work as a meaningful gift.
Melaleuca bark is used by the locals as the main material, available in nature, environmentally friendly and has many characteristic shades due to the influence of weather and tree age. Each work goes through many steps such as selecting bark, processing the background, creating characters and completing the layout. Through each meticulous stage, participants will certainly feel excited, feel the rustic beauty in each grain of bark and, most of all, understand the value of patience and creativity of the artisans. This is one of the unique Western travel experiences, suitable for those who love the connection between culture and nature.
5. Enjoy the quintessence of rural cuisine of the "land of pink lotus" at Tram Chim National Park

At Tram Chim Eco-tourism Area, the riverside restaurant system offers an ideal space to both admire the beautiful natural scenery and enjoy the rustic flavors of the delta. The menu here is extremely rich with typical delicious dishes such as grilled snakehead fish, dried snakehead fish, crab hotpot, braised eel with lemongrass or linh fish hotpot with sesban flowers.
