Super trek through rice fields and bamboo groves - We just finished a 3d trek in the villages of Muong Hoa Valley. An unforgettable experience with our Guide Sang, who led us along the small paths through rice fields and bamboo groves sharing his knowledge of valley life. We were able to visit his house and understand everything about growing rice and dyeing indigo. The choice of guest houses was also perfect! Thank you very much Blood for these 3 wonderful days!

Great experience with Sue in the rice fields - We did a 3 day and 2 night trek with Sue. It was great! We didn’t just make tourist routes. Passages in the fields, bamboo forest, mountains. We recommend the Guide and Herbal Bath:)

Huang Su Phi: Trekking and Homestay + Cruise on Lan Ha Bay - 2 expeditions very well organized by Thanh. Everything went very well at the transport level (several changes without any problems). We were very well received by the locals, well slept and very well eaten. Sleeping at home was a difficult experience for children (15,13,13), but ultimately it will be their most beautiful memory of Vietnam! Many thanks to the Guide (Chu) and local guides, for all their explanations, kindness, humor:-) The cruise was a magical moment, seafood dishes and amazing breakfasts will be remembered, kayaking at the foot of the cliffs, swimming in this unlikely place, and jumping from the boat. On the boat (maximum 15 pers), we were also very well received, and very well eaten and slept. Another big thank you Thanh for the whole organization, which corresponds exactly to what we wanted! We wanted to hike in rice fields, bamboo forests, along local farms... Bet successful!!!

Unforgettable 3-day trek with our guide Sáng !! - My family and I went on a beautiful 3 day trek around the valley and the local villages. Our guide Sáng was the best: she was always helping us, sharing all her knowledge and she was the funniest and kindest! She told us everything about the traditions of the villages around and she put a lot of thought into taking us to the most beautiful paths and viewpoints. We had a herbal bath, climbed a mountain, had a bath in a waterfall, went through beautiful bamboo forests, toasted with rice liquor... We will never forget this trip and Sáng will forever be in our hearts! ❤️

Great views, food, and people! - So glad we booked the three day trek, saw so much more and met great people. The home stays were cool to see and I felt comfortable. The food was great, got to try lots of local and traditional dishes. She was our guide and was amazing. Very kind, helpful, and knowledgeable! I would do this again if I could, great way to see the lives of the Sa Pa people and those in the surrounding villages.

Authentic Trek - Everything was great! Our lovely guide, Sue, was reliable and always there to help. We trekked through many villages and then stayed at two different homestays with delicious food and nice accommodations. Met great friends along the way. She was also very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about Vietnamese and Hmong culture and way of life.

Loved it - We returned yesterday from the 3-day trek through Sa Pa. Even though the transport there was chaotically organized (the transport is outsourced by the organization), it was fantastic. Our guide, Su, showed us all the beautiful places and told us about daily life and activities. We were allowed to plant rice ourselves, swam in the waterfall and made dinner with the host families. It was a wonderful experience and our guide made the trip with her enthusiasm, energy and humor. Highly recommended! It is good to know that the walk is challenging.

Three day trekking starting from Sa Pa - The bus trip from Hanoi to Sa Pa is a bit of a challenge. It is not well organized and it is unclear where you have to go and which bus you have to go on. Upon arrival you can have a shower and a good breakfast at the hotel from where the company does its bookings. The staff are very friendly and you get some tea. After the breakfast we were picked up by Su, our guide. She explains the trip and then you are off. Su made sure we knew we could als anything we'd like to know and she had an answer to all of our questions about the nature surrounding us, the way of living and all other things. The trekking was quite challenging sometimes but definitely worth it. The homestay hotels were very nice, comfortabele and the food was very good. We would definitely recommend this trip and would like to thank Su again for the good times
