J’ai adoré ce contact avec un guide local Hmong qui a su nous partager son histoire, son mode de vie, sa famille. C’était passionnant et fascinant. Ce parcours montagneux nécessite une bonne forme physique en raison de l’altitude et du dénivelé du terrain. Je vous recommande fortement cette excursion.

Such an awesome way to see the more rural side of Vietnam!! Incredible views and the loveliest people! Highly recommend if you are after an active activity for the day and interested in how these villages live their everday lives. The walk itself would suit someone with a moderate level of fitness due to the hills and uneven terrain at times! The only downside would be the ladies trying to sell you items. It's a great way to support them and their villages, but they were rather pushy and made us feel slightly uncomfortable after continuously declining them as politely as we could.
