Our tour guide was lovely and we really enjoyed the hike. The scenery is simply incredible!
This was a great day of hiking around the local villages. My tour guide Achert was friendly and knowledgable. He also provided the option of the more difficult nature route or the easy route on a few occasions (I soul recommend the nature route). The price also includes a tasty luncand is definitely great value for money with all the local knowledge provided on the tour.
My friend and I absolutely loved this experience! Our tour guide was fantastic, very knowledgeable and dedicated to making sure we got the most out of the tour. The scenery was stunning and the tour was a great way to experience the local culture and way of life in this region of Vietnam. We had a great time and would definitely recommend it to others.
We had a GREAT time with La as our guide. She was very knowledgeable, kind, and friendly! The hike was mostly downhill with some uphill sections. Walking through the villages and different terrain was absolutely beautiful and a special experience. I would recommend hiking sneakers and taking this trek is a must!
The tour guide was excellent. So kind and nice. The route was adventuroes and unique. We had a great time!
Great guide, kept mostly off of busy trails and stuck to smaller mountain trails offering a more private and unique experience.
I had a wonderful day of trekking through the beautiful valley and the villages with our guide La. The route was very well thought out without being overly exhausting, that being said, do bring good shoes with good tread as the soil around the area can be loose and slippery even when its dry. La made sure each of us are taken care of and did an amazing job of explaining the villages traditions and culture from their language to their dye making techniques.
This was a truly memorable trek. Although the weather started off foggy (nothing you can do about mountain weather) Mia set a relaxed pace and appropriate route to suit our needs and the weather. She was very informative and engaging with excellent english. The weather improved and the vistas were astounding. A great lunch, included in the price, was provided. A fabulous way to immerse yourself in the culture and way of life of the people from this region of Vietnam.
What a wonderful and culturally rich experience! Our guide, Chi, was a delight. She shared many insights about the area and the various Hmong villages. We couldn't have asked for a better guide and experience. Highly recommend this tour!
Amazing views of the rice terraces! We had a good guide, Mao who adapted the difficulty for us and learned a lot about hmonger-kulturwn.
