Quiet and friendly - The tour was a real delight, and our tour guide Màu was really energetic and showed us the beautiful way through the rice fields to get to the Sa Pa May Homestay. The rooms at the homestay are being renovated right now to make it even better. Thr bathroom and the room we stayed in had everything you need to sleep for one night 😄 Lunch, dinner and breakfast were absolutely delicious. We were also able to do a little cooking class before dinner, as we were enabled to prepare the fried spring rolls ourselves. Don't be worried about the happy tea or the happy water 😉 All in all I would recommend everyone to come here to get to know the village and the people living here.
