Bad weather on the day but a great climb with a good guide. The hot meal for lunch (a delicious chicken noodle soup) was also very much appreciated.

Booked: 1 Day Mt Fansipan Trek to Summit

Appreciate the flexibility of swapping the itinerary. Instead of hiking on day 1, I have requested to hike on day 2 as there was lower chances of rain. There was miscommunication as the host thought to push everything one day later. Good thing was the host responded very quickly and promptly made arrangement for me to be pick up elsewhere. I grabbed over, had breakfast and began the trekking with a lady named Xa. It rained almost the entire day. The walk was from Sapa town to Zizi homestay (approx 15km) with a lunch break in between. The trek was beautiful. Along the way, an old lady and a young girl followed us for quite abit to our rest stop for a break. Initially I did not know why they were together with us in a group, only to realise they were going to sell us their homemade souvenirs like pouches, wallets, pillow case etc (it was rather expensive but absolutely no obligation to buy) when we having our rest. There wasn’t much explanation or sharing of the culture / history throughout the walk, I could hear more explanation coming from other trekking groups. One night at zizi homestay was quite an experience, dinner is provided but in a group setting where they called it group dinner. You get to meet other random people. Day 2 fansipan hike - picked up from homestay and very kind of her zizi’s sister (Lily) to prepare breakfast for me to bring along and met the guide called Mang in Sapa town. His English is basic and shared some interesting facts along the way. Very impressed by how he hike with his pair of legendary sandals. He would offer some rest points. if you require more breaks throughout the hike, he would patiently wait for you (but if you plan to hike down as well, then cater time for that too). Overall experience is pleasant.

Did the 2D1N Fansipan Hike with local guide Mang. Mang has great local knowledge and is a great cook. Enjoyed the hike. Thank you.

Booked: 2D1N Mt. Fansipan Trek with Overnight Camping

Hassle free from time of booking till return back to hotel. Since it was a 1 day trek, the hot soup noodle and fruits at upper camp was great. And Pao, our guide was excellent...sharing the local culture, pointing out the various flora , even get to eat some wild raspberry. Safety conscious, he even re-routed the trek to avoid crossing high water at river crossing. Overall, a great experience as he guided us safely to the summit of Fansipan 👍

Booked: 1 Day Mt Fansipan Trek to Summit

Had a wonderful experience hiking Fansipan thanks to our guide - Pao, who guided us through the mountain with ease. Aside from showing us the way, he also shared some interesting information about the plants, the animals and the terrain. He is well-versed in English and has been hiking Fansipan for 6 years! He is not talkative but that’s perfect for me - I can barely catch a breath, let alone talk while hiking. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I can’t believe I haven’t seen any reviews about him. We would definitely recommend Pao and Sapa Natives Trekking to anyone who is interested in summiting Fansipan in 1 day/6 hours. P.S. Pao also makes really good noodle soup!

Booked: 1 Day Mt Fansipan Trek to Summit

We did the 1-day fansipan hike + cable car descent, went with Hmang (not sure if spelt properly) as our guide and he was great! Great energy & passionate about the nature in the forests. I was worried about not finishing on time for the cable car last descent (430-5pm), but we reached the summit about 3pm. Recommend bringing hiking pole to help with the ascend (especially if it gets rainy & wet), and many snacks and at least 2.5L of water for sufficient hydration. It's about 6+h of hiking! Thankful that the day we went weather was amazing and got to see the views. Also appreciate the pick up & drop off service. Overall the hike was great, the only downside was lunch was DIY sandwich (ham, tomato, cucumber, peanut, with butter & jam spread) at the little cook house. Would've much preferred if we were given hot food, like what the other trekkers were eating.
