Amazing!
My husband and I booked this tour for the half day and chose the option of having a scooter to drive ourselves. My husband rode the scooter with me on the back and our tour guide Sisi took us around the local villages. Sisi was very knowledgeable as she is a local and took us through to her village. The scenery along the way was beautiful and she offered to take photos of us along the way. Highly recommend

Excellent half day tour
This was a great experience with a great guide. We are not big tour people so the half day was perfect for us. Sissy was friendly, knowledgeable and funny. Very skilled riders, we felt very safe the whole time. Would highly recommend if you're looking for an enjoyable way to see parts of Sapa and aren't wanting to hike!

1/2 day tour around sapa’s rice fields and villages
Incredible half day going through the rice fields and villages around sapa. Our guide Zer was very knowledgeable, answered all our questions about the Hmong and was so enthusiastic to share with us. We like to take pictures so sometimes we take our time but we never felt rushed and he even suggested spots for us to take great pictures. The roads were rough but we felt very safe with our easy riders. The scenery was beautiful and the people were so kind. 10/10 recommend this tour.

Thrilling ride and amazing sights
This was a very fun motorbike tour. I was the only one on the tour with the guide. We began with ride from Sapa Stone Church down to Cat Cat Village. Afterward, it was followed by several other villages nearby and down in the valley. Along the way, the scenery was amazing, the weather was good for riding and sightseeing, and the guide did a great job in introducing the villages, including her own. Overall, a must do in Sapa. Some of the roads are quite challenging with rough unpaved surfaces, narrow paths, and steep hills. But without the expert guide leading the way, it was something I would’ve never dare to do on my own.
