The best fun walking with Khu

This has been the absolute highlight of our trip! We laughed and 'talking,talking,talking' all the way as we walked with Khu to her village. Whilst most of the walk was in fog, this did not seem to matter as we just enjoyed Khu's company and insights. Nice to have the sun come out at least to see the lovely village and mountains. Khu was the BEST and her really good English speaking made this possible to joke around with each other. We would HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

A fabulous trek amongst the rice fields in a H'mong village.

I would fully recommend anyone going on this tour! Khu du and her friend met us in Sapa town and took us to her beautiful village by car. We had the short village trek, as I wasn't able to do the longer one. We had a fabulous tour of the village through the rice fields and past the waterfalls. On route, the girls shopped for lunch and used this lovely fresh produce to cook a fabulous meal in Khu dus home. The girls had a fabulous sense of humour, were great fun to be with, very kind and looked after us! Trek with Khu du , you'll have an unforgettable time!

You don't want to miss this!

We made a beautiful walk through the rice fields to the village of Lao Chai. Our guide Soa told us all about the culture of the different villages and the population of these villages. It was interesting to hear how the population lives here and what the customs are. This tour is highly recommended if you visit Sa Pa or the surrounding villages! Be prepared for the children who want to sell everything to you.

Best trekking experience and best guide

It had been on my bucket list for a long time to see the rice fields in Vietnam. Our guide made the experience ten times better. She showed us the best viewpoints and told us about the different villages we passed through. The tour ended at her home village, where we enjoyed boiled corn and cucumbers from her garden. We got to try on traditional clothes and had many great conversations. Suddenly, it started raining and thundering. She quickly arranged for a driver to come and pick us up and take us back to Sapa town. If you want an authentic experience with the sweetest and kindest guide, you should definitely book this tour. The hike is easy and mostly downhill. If you want a comfortable trip, I recommend wearing boots. She’ll gladly take you to a shop where you can rent some.

Fabulous Morning

Mama Kue is fantastic. My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our morning with her. We talked and laughed throughout the whole trek. The views were like nothing I’d ever seen before, absolutely breathtaking. You’ll be doing yourself a huge favor spending your day with Kue ❤️

Amazing experience

We’ve had the best day with Khu, Ban and Sui. We trekked through the rice fields, to Lao Chai village. Khu welcomed us into her home and prepared the most amazing Vietnamese lunch. Possibly the best food we’ve had since we arrived in Vietnam. We learned so much about the culture and day to day life and how things have changed over the years. You will not be disappointed booking a tour with Khu. We have laughed so much today.

Lovely Ladies guiding us through the clouds

Khu and Ban took us to a beautiful trekking tour. It was very cloudy, but we managed to take some lovely pictures of the landscape anyway. They answered all our questions and shared their wisdom about nature and culture. Their English is really good, it was a surprise hearing they leart by themselves and tourists and not in school. They took us to their home and cooked a yummy meal for us. we are vegetarians so they provided delicious vegan food and even taught us a little bit cooking. They showed us their handmade crafts and souvenirs. We bought several things, but they did not push, it felt as if they were also ok with us not bying anything. These Ladies are fun, funny, interesting, open minded and hard working. Always a smile on their faces. Beautiful souls. Thank you for a lovely day❤️🙏
