Forget the typical holiday. This isn’t just a trip; it’s a 16-day, 15-night high-octane expedition designed for the professional angler and the family that craves real adventure. We’re plunging deep into the thrilling landscapes of North – Central Vietnam, from the karst peaks of Ha Long Bay to the mystical jungle streams of Ha Tinh, and emerging with legendary catches and a lifetime of stories.

THE ANGLER’S ULTIMATE QUEST: HUNTING THE MAHSEER

For the dedicated fisherman, the heart of this Adventure Tour lies in the central region: the three-day, deep-jungle trek in Ha Tinh province. You will be on the ‘must-catch once in a lifetime’ list, chasing the elusive, mythical Mahseer.

The Wild Frontier: Trek through pristine forests, cross roaring streams, and camp by one of Ha Tinh’s most stunning, untamed lakes. This is a true wilderness experience—a Jurassic world untouched by man—that few can ever claim.

The Blue & Stracheyi: Using inflatable boats, you will navigate fast-flowing, crystal-clear, oxygen-rich waters—the Mahseer’s only habitat. You’ll be targeting the rare Blue Mahseer and Stracheyi Mahseer. This is a test of skill, endurance, and patience, culminating in the chance for a truly legendary catch.
