Fall in love with the Sapa region in northern Vietnam, where you will experience authentic local culture through mountain visits and interactions with native tribes.

2-Day Tour

Day 1: Hanoi - Sapa - Ta Van

Your adventure begins with hotel pickup in the Hanoi Old Quarter for a 7-hour bus ride to Sapa, with brief rest stops. Upon arrival, enjoy a Vietnamese lunch at a local restaurant, followed by a scenic 9-km (5.6-mile) hike through Y Linh Ho and along the rice terraces of Muong Hoa Stream, passing through the Black Hmong village of Lao Chai to Ta Van Village, home to the Giay ethnic group. After approximately 3.5 hours of hiking, check into a local homestay with the Dzay family. Evening activities include relaxing, cooking, or visiting a local bar.

Day 2: Ta Van - Giang Ta Chai - Sapa - Hanoi

Begin with a traditional breakfast, then hike through rice paddies and bamboo forests to Giang Ta Chai, inhabited by the Red Dzao people, enjoying panoramic views. After about 2 hours (4 km or 2.5 miles), cross the Giang Ta Chai Bridge for transport back to the bungalow to freshen up for lunch before heading to Sapa Town. You’ll have free time for exploration or shopping before returning to Hanoi.

3-Day Tour

The 3-day tour follows a similar route as the 2-day tour, with additional hikes and time for exploration.

Day 1: Hanoi - Sapa - Cat Cat Village

The first day's morning mirrors the 2-day tour; after lunch in Sapa, visit Cat Cat Village to witness local life and a waterfall, then return to Sapa for dinner and overnight at the hotel.

Day 2: Sapa - Ta Van

After breakfast in Sapa, embark on the same hike as Day 1 of the 2-day tour, culminating in Ta Van Village. After lunch, check into the same local homestay.
