OUR STORY
A daughter of the M’nông
takes you home to her village
Chi Bu Trip began in Bon Kon Hao, Đắk Ha commune, where H’Brông, a M’nông teacher, opened the village’s first foreign-language class for children. While teaching the children, she also wanted to bring travellers from afar to see the real Central Highlands: the hearth fire in a stilt house, the sound of gongs, the coffee fields and waterfalls that aren’t yet on any travel map.
Travel that lifts the whole village
Guests stay with local families, eat village food and buy brocade straight from the weavers. Part of every trip goes to the foreign-language class for the children of Kon Hao.
“The Central Highlands are not just for looking at. Come to the village, sit by the fire, listen to the gongs, and you will understand why the M’nông love the forest as they love their home.”
— H’Brông, founder of Chi Bu Trip

A NIGHT IN A M’NÔNG VILLAGE
When the sun goes down,
the village truly comes alive
The most memorable part of the trip is often not the waterfall, but the evening by the fire with a village family.
17:00
Roasting bamboo-tube rice
Cut lồ ô bamboo with the villagers, fill the tubes with upland sticky rice and stream water, then bury them in the glowing embers. The rice comes out fragrant with bamboo and is eaten with sesame salt.
18:30
A M’nông dinner
Canh thụt cooked in bamboo tubes, grilled chicken, stream fish, bitter eggplant and forest greens picked that day. Every dish is cooked by the village mothers.
19:30
Lighting the campfire
The whole group gathers around the fire in the yard to hear the village elder tell stories about the forest and the M’nông farming seasons.
20:00
Gongs & xoang dancing
The gongs ring out and girls in brocade skirts lead the xoang dance in a circle around the fire. Guests are invited to join hands and dance along.
21:00
Drinking rượu cần
A jar of rượu cần (rice wine) is opened to welcome honoured guests. Everyone takes turns drinking through bamboo straws, following village custom.

“The children slept in a stilt house, listened to the gongs and learned a few words of M’nông from the villagers themselves. The most memorable field trip of the school year.”
