Viet provided clear instructions and was readily available to assist at all times. The food included throughout the tour was amazing both at the homestay and the start/ finish restaurant.

“Transportation going to Sapa was amazing and comfortable going with the mini bus as described in the highlight of the trip but the return was terrible because unlike the highlight they made us took the huge bus which is uncomfortable. You should make us return with the Mini bus as it said in the trip review . For the hotel, it is very cheap, the rooms stink and we paid more than $100, so we should get at least 4 star hotel since all the activities we did in Sapa was only hiking and it does not cost your company a lot of money. We compared our deal with others…”

Review of Sapa’s 3-day Muong Hoa Valley trek, overnight train, village homestay, meals, transport, costs, and practical tips.
“Good tour with Mai, a local vietnamese. I had good chats with her. You have plenty time to take pictures and do stops where you want. In May, people are planting rice, a good occasion to see the process and do it yourself if you want to try. Some villages are more touristic than other, I appreciate to do less touristic village and see more authentic local life like peoples cutting wood for winter, crafting traditional clothes, school, rice fields.. Like Sapa, you must be prepared to see many child and women selling you things regularly. One or two will probably follow you on your hike. They insist oftentimes for…”
