Excellent hike - Sapa
We had a wonderful experience and enjoyed our tour with our guide Soso. She is very friendly, easy going but most importantly always asked what we wanted and/or preference. She had passion of the culture and very easy to communicate. Good history lessons of the area and local communities. Excellent hike through the rice paddy fields and towns. Highly recommend.

Walk through rice fields
We went on a hike with a local guide Stong and she was amazing. She took us on the natural path (not the easy way) and it was so much fun. We walked up and down through the rice fields, local homes and had beautiful vistas. She told us about the land, people and culture and was very helpful and kind. I was having some trouble with my knee, but she helped me in all the harder places. I highly recommend this adventure and hope you get Stong as your guide.

Excellent day out!
We thoroughly enjoyed the tour, our guide Soso was excellent, on top of showing us around she told us many stories about the local history. Lunch was delicious and lots of it. Please remember to bring cash as it is important to support the local crafts people.

Amazing and authentic experience, great English, Sapa is foggy in winter but it was still worth it!
Made the most of my one full day in Sapa, it’s muddy and slippery so wear sturdy shoes you don’t care for. My tour guide was very kind, highly recommend for a more intimate authentic tour
