  We had a great tour to SAPA. Lot of hiking on both the days and quite frankly little tiring and exhausted we all were when the tour ended. Scenes were breathtaking, visit to Cat Cat village was interesting with waterfalls, local music & dance. Views from SAPA VISTA facing the vallley were one of the best you can get from the room in SAPA. I recommend to & fro journey from Hanoy by sleeper bus ( 1x1 setting ). 6.5 hours sitting in limo is not a good idea. Otherwise all good.

• Beautiful Scenery, Unorganized Tour

  The scenery is stunning and the local guide is friendly and informative. The rest of the tour is highly unorganized and ad hoc. Communication from the tour organizer/travel consultant is not great and sometimes entirely inaccurate. If you are well prepared and manage your expectations, it will be an enjoyable trip. Know that the trails are incredibly muddy and slippery. Waterproof hiking shoes are necessary. There were members of our group that were not informed of the conditions ahead of time and were woefully ill prepared for the trekking. One nearly slid off a muddy embankment. The tribal ladies are friendly and will offer you a hand along the way. They will ask where you are from, how old you are, and what your name is. They will then aggressively try to sell you their handicrafts. They will follow you on all of your treks so be prepared to either firmly tell them you won’t be shopping or come with cash and a willingness to buy. The homestay is lovely and the meals are delicious. Despite arriving late in the evening right before dinner though, the bungalow rooms were not ready when we arrived. The transportation to and from Sapa and the tour start was a mess and I would recommend arranging your own to avoid all the hassle and miscommunications with the tour operator. Taking the “luxury van” seemed like a good option, but I would avoid it! It seems travelers that took the sleeper bus had a much better experience. Overall the villages and region are beautiful and the homestay is a nice experience. It makes up for some of the headaches with the tour operator. If I were to do it again, I would visit these villages but not book this tour.

• Wet, muddy, slippery and dangerous.

  Our walking tour should not have gone ahead. The walking roads were downright dangerous. We should have been taken down by a car. If not for my guide I would have fallen over a number of times and compensation would have applied. The guide was heat and arguably saved me from a serious accident or worse.

• Really good trip, was...

  Really good trip, was better than I was expecting! Bit unorganised with the buses once arrived in Sapa to and from the villages but it all worked out in the end (after my guide put me on a motorbike coz the bus didn’t turn up). Great scenery, home stay was so cute and all the people were so friendly. Would definitely go again and stay longer next time.

  Our guide Zua was one of the best guides I’ve ever had. She was friendly, knowledgeable and had very good English. The views are absolutely amazing, as was our home stay. The limousine car was also very comfortable for the trip from HANOÏ. Hiking shoes are a must. I highly recommend this tour
