Fantastic experience with Bau – the best guide in Sapa! - If you’re going to Sapa, our absolute tip is: go out with Bau! We spent two unforgettable days with her – a day trekking through the beautiful rice fields and mountain villages, and a day on the scooter through the breathtaking surroundings. What an adventure! Bau is not only a super friendly and cordial guide, she also speaks excellent English and knows an awful lot about the region, the culture and the daily life of the locals. Everything felt authentic, relaxed and perfectly attuned to our pace and interests. Thanks to Bau, we have seen places where you as an ordinary tourist do not go easily. She has really provided a personal and warm experience, which has made our trip to Sapa unforgettable.

Unforgettable trekking with Bau and her amazing family! - We had the most incredible time with Bau. Bau and her family are so kind and knowledgeable about the area. They took us on some epic treks and welcomed us into their cozy house. We enjoyed great meals with her family and really feel like we got to know her village and the culture of the area. She was very attentive and flexible to adjust the trip based on our needs. I would highly recommend trekking with Bau!

Incredible experience - Incredible experience with Bau, his family and sister Mu. Despite the fickle weather, we loved spending these two days with Mu and Bau. The exchanges were very enriching, interesting and we learned a lot about their culture, traditions etc. Their level of English is excellent, which facilitates exchanges. The homestay is very well equipped, with hot water and especially.. heating mattresses 😇 If you pass through Sapa, I strongly recommend you book your trek with Bau, she will meet your expectations with enthusiasm!!

Best experience!! - I can highly recommend booking this tour with Bau! It has been one of the highlights on my trip thru Asia and an experience I will remember and value highly for the rest of my life! I learned a lot about their culture, village and the local life from all the stories she told. Bau and her family were so welcoming and always made sure that I felt good and at ease, such beautiful soles! You really come out with a new and better perspective of life after this tour! Bau was really good at english so it was always easy to have conversations together! She was very professional but personal at the same time which i really appreciated. Their accommodation was very nice, newly built and very clean.

Amazing!!! - The experience was spectacular, from the kindness of Bau and her family, we were so well received that I could only give 5 stars. There's no way not to want to live this unforgettable experience. In terms of trekking, it was a high level of support.

The hike you want to do in Sapa - It is a marvelous experience. All talks with Bau, the landscapes, the walks, all nature surrounding Sa Pa, the meals, everything was great! We stayed at her house in a village where the looks are amazing, dinner shared as if we were part of her family, so it made the stay cozy and warm for my brother and I. Highly recommended to do at least 1 day with Bau if you are in Sapa (we did 2 days 1 night and had an amazing journey). If you’re in for a nature adventure/exploration while getting to know a kind person like Bau would totally recommend!

Best tour ever - 5 stars are not enough for this beautiful experience. Didn't really feel like I was in a tour, it felt more like visiting an old and loved friend. Meeting Bau was one of the best experiences in my travel through Vietnam, she's kind, smart, loves to talk and knows perfectly how to share all her knowledge. I don't want to spoil so you just go and do your booking!

Unforgettable Trekking Tour with Bau – An Experience of a Lifetime! - My 2-day trekking tour in Sapa and the surrounding area with Bau as my guide was simply fantastic! From the very first moment, Bau impressed me with her warm personality and deep knowledge of the region. She led me through breathtaking landscapes, past rice fields, through bamboo forests, picturesque villages, and hidden trails I would never have discovered on my own. Although the emerald-green rice fields had already been harvested in November, the area is still breathtakingly beautiful. The overnight stay at her lovingly designed homestay was an absolute highlight. The accommodation was cozy, clean, and full of charm – you feel welcome the moment you arrive. The food was incredibly delicious! From a hearty dinner to a filling breakfast, everything was fresh, homemade, and prepared with love. Bau not only chose the most beautiful routes but also shared a wealth of insights about the culture and daily lives of the local people. Additionally, Bau speaks excellent English, which made communication with her very easy and enjoyable. I wholeheartedly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to experience the authentic beauty of Sapa. Thank you, Bau, for this unforgettable experience!
