A must -do experience

Hiking in Ta Van and Lao Chai is a must-do for anyone visiting Sapa. We were surrounded by beautiful rice terraces and unspoiled nature. The local culture added to the experience, with friendly people welcoming us. Lunch was delicious local food. The trip was made even more special by our homestay. The trek requires good shoes, but the rewards are breathtaking views, especially from April to September.

The trekking tour filled me with emotions. Friendly and knowledgeable guide. The road goes through green terraced fields. The shuttle bus is acceptable. The homestay is neat and cozy. The meals are rustic but delicious. The scenery is majestic and peaceful.

Memorable trekking experience

The Ta Van – Lao Chai trekking trip with ATV was great. The tour guide spoke English clearly, explaining the H'Mong and Dao culture very interestingly. Safe and comfortable shuttle bus. Clean homestay, terraced field view. Delicious and warm family meal. A journey worth trying
