We loved our tour with Zi she was so knowledgable and happy to teach us lots about the Hmong and Dao people and Vietnamese culture. Her English was amazing even though she was very modest about it. The walk itself was not difficult but it was very hot the lower into the valleys you went and you need a lot of sun cream and good shoes as there are so very steep descents and the wrong shoes will really hurt your feet going downhill. A few Hmong women accompanied us and helped members of the group up and down the bumpy terrain which was lovely and they sold some handicrafts. The lunch in Lao Cai w
The tour was great. We Saw some beautiful nature as Well as some small villages. Our guide Khu was super Nice and informing. Would book this again if I come back to Sapa! 👌☺️
Dao was a great guide! She has lots of knowledge to share and we learned a lot about the area and the local people. Lunch was also great. Definitely recommend this tour!
Amazing experience with Chang! She was so friendly, helpful and made the hike really enjoyable. The views were incredible and we had a great time. Highly recommend!!!! 💛
This trek through Y Linh Ho, Lao Chai, and Ta Van was incredible. The scenery was beautiful and our guide, Chang, did an amazing job of ensuring our experience was fulfilling!
Half-day trek that felt like a full adventure. I did the half-day trekking tour with a group and had a fantastic experience. Our guide, May, was exceptional—knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole journey through the rice terraces and villages feel authentic and special. She explained the culture and history of the local communities beautifully and kept a great pace throughout. The scenery was breathtaking, and the lunch was delicious. I highly recommend this tour, and specifically ask for May as your guide—she is outstanding!
Sapa is a beautiful and very relaxing countryside. Vu was a great guide, and we had plenty of time to rest along the way in shady, uncrowded spots. It was great to have a local from the village itself to ensure we only stopped at comfortable places, without worrying about scams or constant harassment from vendors. Overall, I had a very relaxing and enjoyable hike.
Vu was an excellent guide and we had lots of time to break along the trek in the shaded spots that weren't as crowded. Its great to have a local that is from the village to make sure we only stop at comfortable places where there's no concern for scams or constantly pestering from salespeople. Overall I had a very relaxing and fun trek.
Our experience today with our tour guide Cat was so wonderful! During our trip we visited 3 villages and nature trail to see the different crops they grow in the area. For the nature trail we saw the rice fields and other plants that grow in the area. The concrete trail lead to coffee shops and the other villages to saw that day. Overall our guide Cat was amazing and knowledgeable. She explained so much to us and I would definitely recommend.
Had the most amazing time on this tour. Vu was a great guide, I am not so stable on my feet and she helped me through it when needed. Some incredible views, talked through the rice fields and saw the locals in their villages. 10/10 would recommend.
The tour was amazing! Cat was an amazing guide and showed us around the villages including her village. Had a great time highly recommend
