A day in Sapa

Diana_A, Feb 2026

We ordered the car with driver and guide to show us Sapa. We were not exactly sure how to plan the day. Our guide Song helped us decide where to go and made everything happen perfectly. She had so much information about the area, her culture and history. We really enjoyed her company. Long was driving and it was crowded because of New Years, but he was amazing. I highly recommend doing this and hope you get Song as a guide.

Amazing helpful tour guide and as described
