Excellent agent for organizing a tailor-made stay in the northern mountains - We did not sleep at Nam Ly Retreat but took advantage of the services of Lee, its manager, to organize our stay in the northern mountains. Initially leaving for a 4 day 3 night hike in the magnificent regions of Hoang Su Phi, accompanied by a guide and going from hamlet to hamlet to meet ethnic minorities, Lee quickly understood our specific needs and helped us remotely to organize our full week: night transfer from Hanoi to enjoy the Dong Van and Meo Vac markets, trek in the Dong Van Geopark, a large part of the famous Ha Giang Loop with the visit of remarkable sites, the magnificent trek of 4 days around Hoang Su Phi, returning to Bac Ha for the famous market before returning to Lao Cai for a unique experience on the night train to Hanoi. Lee was incredible in helping us organize a completely tailor-made trip, giving us freedom of choice and the autonomy we were looking for, whilst finding solutions for ourselves. On site, Lee himself got involved in our trip to make it go as smoothly as possible, even as a guide or driver. It allowed us a unique, private, unforgettable stay, off the beaten track, at a price much lower than all the often non-modifiable packages offered by agencies. Thanks again Lee! And see you for our next trip to Vietnam.

See you soon!!! - Lovely place on the rice field with waterfall on the background.... What else?! Mr. Dong has created an amazing trekking tour around villages, rice fields and mountains perfectly suited my requests. He has been kind and helpful during all my vietnamese trip!

Nam Ly in October: Memorable experience - Three friends and I joined Lee's long hiking trip in the early days of October. Before that day, it was raining heavily so we were afraid the trip would have to be postponed. Luckily, the day we set out, the sun was shining so the picnic turned out perfect. The weather is cool, the trees are green, the air is fresh, the streams and waterfalls are rushing. Although the road was a bit slippery, the local guide carefully prepared the sticks so there were no problems. Experiencing through terraced fields, Shan Tuyet tea hills, visiting Dao and Nung ethnic villages and eating and sleeping in traditional stilt houses are unforgettable impressions. Just note 2 things: prepare yourself in good health for the long hike and remember to bring insect repellant cream. The rest can be said in short: It's memorable

Thank you Nam Ly Retreat - I had an interesting, exciting trip with beautiful, pristine scenery. The tour brought a quite unique experience, I got to meet and stay at ethnic people's houses. Thank you Nam Ly Retreat & Tour Guide for being knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the terrain!

What a nice trip - I have just done this tour today. Such a unique experience! The scene was breathtaking, with pretty lovely people. They treated me well with their local specialities. The guide was so so well-informed about the geometrical theorem inside out that made our tour run smoothly. Everything was so new and nice to me. Overall, great trip ^^

The hike was very impressive - My Dutch friends and I joined Don Lee's hiking trip. The scenery here is beautiful. The walk is long but not too difficult because the local guide is very familiar with the route. It was very interesting to bathe at Nam Ly waterfall and we had very beautiful moments while staying at the Dao ethnic house in Nam Ai. Leave behind the chaos of life and immerse yourself in nature with this day-long hike. See you again Don in the ripe rice season
