Enjoyable experience

Fantastic tour & guide! Our guide, Zho Shan, is extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the area. He brought us to less crowded areas so we could really see how the local people live. Very enjoyable hike, will definitely be back the next time for the harder treks :)

Excellent

Our guide Su guided us through the fields of Sapa while telling us about the culture, their way of life and different facts about the rice fields, and answered all our questions. It was a really nice experience and I would absolutely recommend!:-)

3 day hike with 2 nights

We did a 3 day hike with 2 nights. It was a great experience where we experienced real life in the mountain villages. Our guide Nhu is a very good and professional guide and clearly explains life and the things we encountered. We really went off the standard paths and didn't meet any tourists. Super, I can recommend it to everyone to book several days with Nhu

Extraordinary experience

We were blessed touring with Chinh, a very friendly young man. We had two days, the first was with a car visiting multiple sites and the second was trekking from Sapa to villages around Sapa. Chinh was very accommodating and adjust to our needs. We love to walk so he adjusted the first day to make sure that we walked a bunch and use the car effectively to get us from site to site. Chinh was very knowledgeable both locally as well as the general history of Vietnam, we learned a lot while enjoying amazing site seeing. We planned the trip weeks in advance, a few days before our departure Chinh reached out to confirm and set our meeting point and the plan for the two days. I highly recommend his service!!!

fantastic local guide

Nhu is an amazing tour guide! The 2-day hike with her was a truly special experience. She speaks English really well and explained a lot about Vietnamese culture, as well as the landmarks and plants along the way. We stayed overnight at her sister’s homestay in a little village. They let us help make spring rolls and prepared delicious food for us, including home-grown rice and vegetables. The two days with Nhu were one of the best and most authentic experiences we’ve had on our travels so far! :)

Thank you for this amazing experience 🫶🏻

We went hiking with Nhu, and it was an amazing experience. The views were absolutely stunning, and we had many questions along the way, all of which she could answer easily thanks to her very good English. We booked the two-day tour, which included an overnight stay at her sister’s homestay. The mattresses were very comfortable, and it truly felt like staying at a friend’s home — everyone was incredibly welcoming. We also enjoyed delicious, traditional homemade food. I can definitely recommend this experience. It was one of the best hikes I’ve ever done ☺️ Thank you, Nhu 🫶🏻

Best guide to Sapa

I did a solo trip to Sapa over a long weekend. My itinerary was focused on learning about the local crafts and traditions, and included visits to the locals’ homes, red dao herbal bath, a bit of hiking in between these destinations. Su was excellent at identifying just the right locations (no tourist traps) to learn about indigo, embroidery and more. Deeply passionate about her people and land, she shared a lot about local life and traditions. Su was attentive and adaptable to the changing needs of my itinerary, fine tuning the programme on the go. Well versed in English and native to her environment Su is an excellent guide. I would definitely recommend her, whether you are looking for a general tour of Sapa or a bespoke discovery tour.
