  • Glimpse of Sapa

    Let's take A mini Vietnam adventure tour incorporating two full days in and around the beautiful town of Sapa by the Chinese border. Experience a fantastic Sapa adventure tour, trekking in Vietnam's remote countryside (as easy or challenging as you wish), watch ethnic minority tribes in traditional dress going about their daily lives, and visit local hill tribe markets... then in the evening return to the comfort of your hotel in Sapa town. A great opportunity for those seeking a Vietnam adventure tour but still desiring creature comforts.

    If you have the time, Sapa tours in Vietnam are one of the key 'must do' highlights when visiting the country, however if you only have a couple of days to spare we also recommend Mai Chau, Vietnam's South West region - offering similar scenery, ethnic minority villages, hiking, cycling, and, as it is less known than Sapa, a more quiet atmosphere.

    Our Vietnam adventure tours can be as easy and slow going as you wish, or a real physical challenge. Allow us to customize an itinerary to suit your fitness level and interests.

    Highlights

    * Trekking through the villages of Cat Cat, Cau May, Ta Phin, all home to different ethnic minority groups
    * Exploring the beautiful town of Sapa nestled up in the hills, offering magnificant views, a cool climate and a bustling market
    * Shopping for souvenirs in the markets
    * Coming back to a comfy hotel room each night

    Good for...

    * Those wanting to experience Sapa but with their creature comforts, ie staying in a hotel, not a homestay
    * Suitable for all ages, including families
