We did a very nice and beautiful walk along rice fields and traditional villages with guide Thong, who showed us her culture and customs. A very sweet guide too, who took good care of us on the way, because the descents were slippery because it had been fiercely thundering the night before.
Tung is great guide with nice English, helpful and knowledge!

We did the “non-touristic” tour with Ly. She picked us up from the hotel on time, and we drove a bit outside of Sapa before starting a fairly demanding hike right away. In total, I think we did around 900 meters of elevation gain. She told us about fruits, customs, and the different tribes. Once we reached the top, we took a short break with lunch she prepared for us. Afterwards, we headed downhill again to some rice fields and a village of ethnic minorities. Ly is super kind and funny, and everything was very well organized.

A great experience with a knowledgeable and friendly guide, Soso, who told us a lot about the people and the history of the area.
