If you have just one day in Vietnam, this is the destination to visit.
Fansipan is an unbelievable destination, and while that may sound like hype, it lives up to the statement. A short funicular ride takes you to the cable car station, where the cable cars take you across multiple valleys and peaks, and up almost to Fansipan peak. From there you ride another funicular to the absolute peak. The engineering is phenomenal, and the views even better. Prices for food at the restaurants are fair, something other destinations should note, and this was probably the high point of our trip to Vietnam.

Our Fansipan Great Experience
We had a great time and enjoyed every moment of our Fansipan experience. We are thankful to our superb tour guide, Ai. She is very hands on and accommodating and ensures that all our concerns, if any, are addressed. Kudos to Ai and to the entire Team.

Sapa view from mountain to the Hmong valleys.
Nothing like seeing the terrace garden up close after seeing them from the cable car. This your let's you appreciate where the food comes from to feed locals and tourists alike. Amazing experience!

Worth the Wait!
The views are incredible! The facilities and transport to Fansipan are top-notch. Wait time for the cable car can be several hours, but worth the wait!

Overpriced and poor communication
I did a lot of those tours over the past few weeks and this was by far the worst as far as communication is concerned. In the end I had to contact Viator to ask if I could cancel the tour and they sent me the tickets! The option of the tour that I picked was comprised of a bunch of tickets which I could have purchased individually for much cheaper.

Challenging but Highly Rewarding Experience
This was an incredibly rewarding experience. I urge everyone, however, to know what you are signing up for. We are two physically fit 22 year old girls and it was one of the most physically demanding things we’ve done in our lives. Even though it was incredibly difficult, it could not have been more worth it. Our guide Sue was also amazing.
