Beautiful! Me best guide in the Word! - Wonderful experience. Our guide Me was really nice, she told us so much about her people, her traditions and her life. He accompanied us along the entire route respecting our times and our pace and satisfying our every need. The trek is quite hard, it's about 5h of walking a day with different height differences and steep paths through the mountains, forests and rice paddies. But it is worth it, the landscapes are spectacular and you get a taste of authentic Vietnam, it seems to be in another era. The homestay experience was also very nice, they welcomed us with affection and made us taste many good things. Absolutely recommended! But not to be underestimated so I recommend leaving equipped with technical equipment for trekking!

Great off-the-beaten hiking experience - It was a great experience with our tourguide May! She showed us the beautiful rice fields and small villages. She cares about us and helped us on a difficult or slippery track. The homestays were also awesome and the family were very friendly. We made fried springrolls ourselves. Really Nice to do. An experience we will never forget. Thank you!

Awesome 3 day trek - Awesome experience with a very nice guide. Trek is quite long and difficult so be aware but very feasable for the average person. Homestays are very nice.

Great trek with homestay, rice fields and bamboo forest - It was an amazing tour. Our tour guide Dom did a great job and always adjusted the difficulty depending on how we were feeling. The group was great as well. The homestays were both nice and clean and the first homestay was very new. Our guide Dom always knew the weather better than any App and she told us a lot about the local culture an people. Would definitely go on a tour with this company again.

Absolutely Unforgettable - We had an absolutely unforgettable 3-day trek in Sapa with Sush, our incredible Hmong guide. From the moment we met her, she made us feel welcome, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. Her knowledge of the area, her culture, and the surrounding villages added so much depth to the experience. Sush guided us through breathtaking landscapes, introduced us to local customs, and shared stories from her life that made the trip feel deeply meaningful. She was always attentive to our pace and needs, and her sense of humor and warmth made every moment special. We can’t recommend this experience enough – it was one of the highlights of our entire trip through Vietnam. Thank you, Sush, for everything!

Fantastic trek through villages, rice fields and incredible guide! - We had an AMAZING time with Ly!! She was so incredibly sweet and informative. She guided us through different villages, rice fields, waterfalls, and answered our many many questions. In advance of our booking the company was extremely responsive and even allowed us to pushback our reservation by a day. Both nights of the Homestay were fantastic, and the beds were super comfy in our first stay. The saw some other groups along the way who mentioned going through very busy areas with lots of ladies selling things and following people… that was not the case for us. We saw a handful of them but were not at all bothered. Heads up - as of March 22 there was a significant amount of smoke(?) in the air. It was still gorgeous and I’d still recommend doing the trek. However if you can, avoid if there is rain or if it just previously rained a day or two before as it can be extremely slick if wet. Thank you again Ly!!!!

3 day tour with super cute guide - Total fat experience. We had the sweetest guide Soso. She was good in English and made the trip much better. We had 3 days and slept at some very good homestays. Our guide was really good at adapting the route according to what we wanted.
