Full description

This is a 12-hour experience in Sapa. It is run by Sapa Original Trek Company Limited, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Japan's outdoors is organised: trails are marked, mountain huts are booked, and the walking routes with history, the Nakasendo post road between Magome and Tsumago and the Kumano Kodo pilgrimage in Wakayama, are done in comfortable day stages with luggage forwarded. Cycling tours use the flat river paths and back streets that cars avoid. The summer heat from July to September makes early starts essential in the cities and lowlands, while the mountains are cool. Winter turns Hokkaido and Nagano into ski country from December to March, with the powder that Niseko and Hakuba are known for.

The price covers guide and Entry/Admission - Fansipan Mountain. It does not cover Tips, Personal expenses and Cable car tickets, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Sa Pa. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Sapa Original Trek Company Limited before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Számomra óriási élmény volt feljutni Vietnám legmagasabb csúcsára. A szervezés jó volt, reggel jöttek értünk kocsival a hotelünkhöz és a túra végén visszavittek minket a szállásra. A túravezetőnk egy helyi törzs egyik tagja volt. Aki egy héten többször is megmássza a csúcsot. A túra elején mesélt kicsit az erdőról az életéről. Ő készült nekünk ebéddel is. A túra végén mi ahogy áradtunk lassultunk, a túravezetőnk végig előttünk haladt, ami időnként motiváló néha picit demotiváló volt, de minden alkalommal megvárt minket. Feljutni a csúcsra, ebéddel együtt nekünk 6 és fél óra volt, majd szinte a
