    Beautiful scenery

    Hilde_S, Dec 2025
    Chu was a great guide on our walking trip. We didn't want to take the car back as it was only 7km until that point so Chu guided us back to our homestay which made it an 11km round trip tour. Beautiful scenery on a sunny day. Chu shared lots of knowledge about the people living in the different villages, their culture and the nature around us. She was also great with our 3 year old son.

    A long and difficult route that is not suitable for adults

    NISSIM_T, Dec 2024
    A long route that includes a 12 km long mountain climb. The guide did not explain the rice cultivation and at the end the food was mediocre. Only suitable for young people in good shape, which is a shame.

    Highlight of our visit to Sapa! Highly recommended!!

    David_F, Oct 2024
    We loved this day! It was so much fun trekking through the rice terraced fields and villages. Chu was a wonderful guide. She was so knowledgeable and friendly. We enjoyed spending the day with her. The scenery was beautiful and lunch was great.

    MohamadSalim_N, Oct 2024
    We had a wonderful day with Sang -our guide-, if you have one day in Sapa, do this one. We trekked together through the rice fields and she explained to us a lot about the culture and the life in Sapa. In Addition to that she answered all our questions and had a good sense of humor. The hike is moderate and not suitable for people with mobilities issues.

    The trek through Sapa's breathtaking landscapes was a truly awe-inspiring experience. The lush greenery and stunning natural beauty made every step feel like a journey through a postcard.

    Beautiful and fun trekking experience!

    Linda_S, Oct 2023
    Highly recommend this trekking tour! Our guide, Du, was very friendly and experienced. The rice fields were stunningly beautiful and the tour was well-paced. We also saw so many adorable animals along the way (oxen, ducks, chickens, dogs). I would consider the level of fitness required medium, but navigating the muddy slopes was definitely challenging! Thankfully, Du and two other guides were there to give us a steadying hand when needed and they are very strong and stable! Lunch was delicious as well. Overall, a great time!

    Expensive hike

    Thomas_G, Apr 2023
    We really enjoyed trekking through the rice fields. The views and mountains surrounding us were beautiful, but we feel we didn't benefit much from having a guide. She was very nice but didn't offer much information unless we asked. While we saw many people going by chatting away with their guides, we felt we would have had the same experience if we only had a map of the way.

    Must see!

    Robert_C, Apr 2023
    My partner and I completed the tour with Chu. We were in a group of 5 participants, which is a good size. The landscapes were stunning and we learnt so much from Chu about Hmong life in the villages. She is so knowledgeable and given she lives in one of the villages, can speak authentically about life in the villages. The walk was 6 hours, we are of average fitness and survived (although with sore legs the next day). Yes you climb up a rice paddy and it’s not easy but it’s absolutely worth it and should be do-able for most! A must when in Sapa!

    Highlight of our trip!

    Ryan_B, Mar 2023
    We had a fantastic trek with Mau. We had our 12, 11, 8 and 6 year old. We walked about 6 miles and she was so sweet and patient with them. They loved every minute of the trek, seeing the animals along the way, and walking through the nature. This was without a doubt the highlight of our visit to Sapa and probably Vietnam

    Sapa trek with Lo Chi Sang

    Catherine_A, Mar 2023
    The trek from Sapa through local hill tribe villages and terraced rice fields, was one of the highpoints of our stay in Vietnam. Our guide, Sang, was truly wonderful, with her thoughtful spirit and wealth of fascinating insights on local hill tribe culture. Thank you!

    Best day in SaPa

    Sam_S, Jan 2023
    Wow! What a great day this was. Our guide Sang was waiting for us exactly where we had organised. Her English was very good and she was very generous with her knowledge. It was such a beautiful trek through the hills and the down into the village where we had a delicious lunch. Be prepared for the kids to want to sell you their goods but why not they’re pretty bags & key rings and a lot of work goes into them. We learnt so much about the Hmong people and would highly recommend this tour. My advice would be wear good grippy footwear, it was muddy & slippery. So much fun.
