Skip this, it’s not worth it.

Honestly, you’re far better off booking everything à la carte than using this tour. The communication is vague and confusing throughout. The “comfortable sleeper bus” was a mess and clearly contracted out because the had no idea what they were doing and we left more than 90 min late, causing the first day trek to be rescheduled for a future day. The bus was old and loud and uncomfortable and the “comfort stops” are equally bad. The hotels they provide are not good…leaks, smells, broken outlets… Both of my treks didn’t happen due to weather (not the operators fault) but I did them on my ow layer in the day when it cleared, and trust me you don’t need a guide. They do provide meals but there all super basic and you don’t get to choose your meal. Take the train, boom your own hotels, choose your own restaurants, and skip this. Even the transportation back was completely confusing due to lack of communication and the hotel staff having no idea what the tour schedule is.

Insightful & Fun Trek

Our guide made this journey both fun and educational. We learned a bout local ethnic groups, daily life , and traditions. Views were spectacular even with occasional fog Hiking was satisfying without being overly challenging. Hotel rests were deliciously comforting after active days.

Wonderful Family Experience

We brought our toddler and elderly parents, and the tour was perfect for all. The guide helped with every step and even lent umbrellas during rain . Villages walks and scenic spots were appropriate for every age. The hotel was cozy, and the meals catered to all tastes. Truly a memorable family adventure.

Amazing Sa Pa with excellent tour guide Zizi

This was my fourth trip to Sa Pa - but the scenery continues to amaze me. Besides the incredible beauty of the nature we had a very good guide . Her name is Zizi. She gave us a lot of insights into local customs and local life. Furthermore she knew when to push us politely during trekking or stop us for enjoying and taking pictures of our surroundings
