Ecohost bridges local resources with global travel expertise, creating impactful travel products for our B2B partners

Ecohost Vietnam Community DMC

Since 2012, Ecohost Vietnam has partnered with rural communities to reimagine local tourism – not as a service, but as a shared experience between hosts and travelers.
What began with a few homestays outside Hanoi has grown into a network of community-based destinations, where tradition, nature, and hospitality come together to create meaningful, responsible travel experiences. We work closely with local people to co-design travel products, train hosts, and build sustainable operations rooted in cultural identity.
Whether it’s a slow-living escape in the mountains or an immersive village experience near Hanoi, every journey reflects the pride and resilience of the people who call these places home.
