The climb took me around 7 hours in total to complete. Definitely not an easy climb as it involves traversing multiple rough terrains and steep rocky slopes and steps. My guide, Duong, was really patient and had constantly ensure my safety throughout the climb. It was a once in a lifetime experience which is truly unforgettable. Highly recommended!

Booked: 1 Day Mt Fansipan Trek to Summit

We had such a great experience with this tour. We booked this tour for a previous day, however we were not feeling well on the day and we were able to change the date, which was really kind. First off, our guide was excellent (I‘m sorry I don‘t know how to spell the name and don‘t want to write it wrong). He shared lots of knowledge with us (about culture, history, farming, plants), had a few laughs with us and enjoyed the hike/scenery as much as we did. Beautiful day with great company! Secondly, I don‘t know what it was but the lunch was soooo yummy and exactly what we needed after having to focus on the uneven and muddy terrain. We met a few locals along the way and had a lovely local crafts woman join us for a bit, walking through her village and we bought a beautiful handmade pillowcase off her in the end. This tour definitely made our stay in Sapa worthwhile ♥️

Booked: Sapa Off-Grid Trek with Social Enterprise

We had a really good time with Sa on our six hour hike! She shared information about the local cultures and the way people work in agriculture, but we also had some stretches to walk in silence and enjoy the views - a perfect balance! My wife and me chose the easy route, especially because it had been raining for the last days and the adventurous route would’ve been quite muddy and slippery. We were not disappointed at all - it was a really scenic route with lots to see, yet manageable in terms of steepness and required fitness. Also: the lunch was plenty and tasty :)

Booked: Sapa Off-Grid Trek with Social Enterprise

What a fantastic experience. The homestay, the treks, and our wonderful guide Li, were all so amazing. Because the weather was a little worse than expected, we were able to change our plans around somewhat, and everyone was so accommodating and flexible. The homestay even let us borrow their rain boots. A highlight of our entire trip!

Booked: 3D2N Hidden Sapa Valleys Trek with Remote Village Stays

We loved every second of our Sapa tour. Our guide, Mẩy Xuân, was absolutely fantastic. Her knowledge of Sapa, the various ethnic groups, as well as the floral and fauna, was incredibly impressive and helped to make our tour both fun and informative. The homemade food was delicious and the homestay very comfortable. Thank you for an unforgettable trekking experience!
