Great treks with brilliant guides - Smooth transfer from our overnight train to the hotel. Definitely what you wanted after getting to the station at 6am. Really communicative about breakfast, lunch and dinner timings and locations. Lovely hotel with breakfast straight away and the hotel were great at looking after bags. Picked up by a fantastic tour guide who was a member from one of the local tribes down the valleys of Sa Pa. Had a shorter walk the first day to Cat Cat Village. Beautiful waterfall and little shops. Hotel dinner included after free time in the afternoon to explore Sa Pa town. The next day was the longer trek, welly boots can be rented for very cheap if the route is muddy when you visit. Same guide allowed us to get to know her and her culture more and ask questions. The local women of the villages we were visiting helped us down the rice paddy hills with the idea that you would buy some of their homemade purses, bags, pillowcases etc. once you reached their village. Great to see their homes and culture and a quickly served lunch to tuck into. Once we got back to the hotel we had more free time to see more of Sa Pa before another hotel dinner and very well organised taxi back to the train station. Updates throughout the day were extremely helpful and the treks were the perfect distance for people who want to explore a bit more on their holiday.

A great mix of adventure and comfort! - Absolutely loved the experience. Pleasant and professional coordinators ensure you have a good time. Any and every issue was taken care of, great communication. Very friendly guides and quite strong as well (really comes in handy as you will need their help during the trek at some points). The train journey and the hotels provided were quite comfortable and most importantly CLEAN!

Rural Exploration - Well organised guided tours to Cat Cat village and then then next day an approx. 5-7 mile walk (with lunch included) with guide from the local village. It was very muddy but daughter & I borrowed wellies which had fairly good grips. Local ladies assisted us along paths through rice fields & in return we bought local handicraft items. Well worth doing to get an insight into rural Vietnamese life.
