Full description

This is a 7-hour experience from Sapa, built around Muong Hoa Valley. It is run by Sapa Odyssey Tour, 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, Water, Lunch and Entrance ticket. It does not cover Personal expenses, Tips and Travel insurance, 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 Odyssey Tour before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Lucas was an AMAZING guide. He is a local member of the Hmong who grew up in a remote mountain village nearby Sapa. Great English. We saw amazing waterfalls despite the rain and then explored local (non touristy) villages and even ended up by chance at a local rice wine harvest celebration. Way beyond my expectations. 10/10

Lukas was our guide and was so helpful and sweet. Took lots of pictures and videos for us, and is from the area so very knowledgeable. We had a great time, we felt safe, and would do it again. The food at the home stay was SO good as well 👌 the day goes very quickly

This was one the most fun tours we have done so far in Vietnam. This was an incredible way to see Sapas great views and all the charming villages. This was way more fun than walking, like so many of the other tours. Our guide, Singh,made us feel safe the whole time. Our guide was super friendly and amazing and took drone videos of us as we drove our scooters through the rice fields.

We had the best day exploring Sapa by motorbike with our guide Sinh! We saw lots of incredible views and learned so much about the culture and way of life. Sinh & our easy rider made sure we were safe and were really open and friendly, we were able to ask so many questions and loved learning about their life in Sapa and the Hmong tribe. Would highly recommend this tour, it was so much fun and so interesting!

The trip was a fantastic way to see the surrounding villages and understand more about local life. Nhu and her father in law were an excellent guide and driver. They took care to ensure we were safe and comfortable whilst also showing us some unique sights. This was our best day so far in Vietnam.

We were conveniently picked up from our homestay even though it was outside of Sapa by Tung and Giang who gave us a warm welcome and quick review of the day’s adventure. We got to see some amazing areas that we would not have been able to otherwise if navigating by foot or taxi. Tung was very helpful in answering our questions about many things, especially Hmong culture. We even traded some English and Vietnamese and Hmong words! Lunch was tasty with a beautiful view by the river. Some roads were very bumpy so it took some hanging on but for us that added to the adventure.

A huge thank you to our guide, Sinh, for an incredible tour! He thoughtfully picked us up right from our hotel and dropped us off there at the end. He took us through unbelievably beautiful spots, stopping at every single place where we wanted to take photos. He even made several drone photos and videos for us. Sinh is a wonderful companion, he told us so much new information about Sapa and the way of life of the people in the villages we visited. In the afternoon, we had a very tasty and satisfying lunch where we were served many local dishes. This tour was definitely the highlight of our tim
