Overview

Sapa town is charming in its own right, with its quaint little streets, coffee shops and bustling markets, however, in our humble opinion, Sapa is best used as the starting point for adventures into the surrounding hills and valleys, attracted by the highland tribes, iconic rice paddies and forest treks. The whole area is blessed with awe-inspiring natural beauty.

Let’s join us: just a 6-hour bus ride or comfortable overnight train journey away! Sapa trekking on new route, less crowed. Meet Mama Chao and visit her family in Hau Thao village.

What to expect

Day 1: Sapa- Lao Chai- Ta Van- Hau Thao
  1. Sapa Market
    1 day · Admission ticket included
    After you met our tour guide (Mama Chao or her husband) and got to know another over breakfast you will start trekking to the village. There are a number of different routes depending on your fitness levels, so make sure to inform our tour guide what you would prefer and ensure you have enough water for the day.

    Trek across the mountains, through fields and beside streams, passing many local faces along the way. You can stop as you wish and will have lunch in a local restaurant, completing a total of 10-12km of trekking on your first day.

    When you arrive in Hau Thao village, meet local family and settle into their home. You can help Mama Chao to cook dinner and learn how the local people cook, including catching and preparing a chicken if you want!

    Enjoy dinner with the whole group and indulge in some ‘happy water’, rice wine, as you listen to their stories of life in the valley and share your own too.
Day 2: Hau Thao- Giang Ta Chai - Sapa Town
  1. Giang Ta Chai Village
    8h · Admission ticket included
    After breakfast, our guide will take you back ‘off beaten track’ for a second day of trekking and taking in the incredible scenery of Sapa. You’ll get the chance to see a waterfall and learn about rice production, the main industry of the area.

    Take a break for lunch and arrive in Sapa at 3.30pm, heading back to Hanoi that night.
