Amazing guide - We booked our trek with Thao for 6h and it was a really great experience. She led us through the rice fields of Sapa, giving us a lot of details about ethnic living, plants (indigo), animals. We shared about our life and wildness while trekking. We ended in her village and had some happy drink and very good lunch. She is a very good cooker and driver as well, and she drove us to our hotel in the evening with her father. Thank you Thao for this amazing expérience and for the homemade horses and hearts with leaves.

A perfect moment 💚 - One of our best memories of Vietnam. We discovered the rice fields of Sa Pa alongside little cu, an extraordinary woman by her kindness, her love of sharing. We hesitated at the beginning, as we did well to trust him. A real joy this hike. Thank you very much.

Great trekking experience with knowledgeable and friendly guide! - I had an incredible trekking experience with Mama Khu! She’s such a wonderful guide—always smiling, fun, and easygoing. She knows so much about SAPA, from the different tribes around the village to their history and the local agriculture. She even showed me the indigo leaf used to make dye for traditional costumes and explained the whole process of creating each piece, from weaving to knitting and dyeing—it’s amazing how much work goes into it! She also has a marijuana plant by her house, and I learned that they use the stalks purely for weaving, not for any recreational purpose. Mama Khu led me along trails from mountain paths to rivers and across rice fields, letting me experience how locals travel between tribes in the mountains. It was truly an unforgettable journey! Thanks Mama Khu, I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to travel SAPA!

A Wonderful Guide to an Amazing Excursion - I have no words of thanks to Khu for being such a wonderful, attentive and fun Guide. The best hostess one can ask to discover the Hmong culture and the wonderful landscapes that surround it.

Best trecking ever - Maravillosa. We met Khu by chance and immediately connected with his sense of humor and kindness. He offered us an authentic experience, to get to know his culture, and his people Lao Chai. And the truth is that it is one of those people that fills you with energy and positivity. The journey was a beautiful path through the rice paddies and bamboo forests, where he explained every detail of the native plants and animals, which they used for their textile products such as hemp or indigo. She made us feel super comfortable, asking us things about ourselves and sharing things about her and her family. An unforgettable trip and totally recommended, it would cost me to be able to return to Sapa to share with her more experiences like this. Un 10!

1000% Recommend Mamma Khu!! - We did a one day hiking tour with Mama Khu. She was THE best guide we could have asked for. She was so lovely, funny and informative. We learned so much about the Vietnamese culture whilst treckinng through the most beautiful parts of Sapa. After we hiked to her local village we had a yummy meal at her house which was lovely. Although it was quite misty, we still had a great time and would 100% recommend this tour with Khu. Thank you Mamma Khu!

Lovely trek with local guide - Khu is an excellent guide; she is friendly and very knowledgeable. I had a great time trekking with her through the paddy terraces in the Sapa Valley. She cooked me lunch at her house - a personal touch that is lovely (she cooked very well with fresh ingredients). If you are a solo female traveler and want to enjoy a good time trekking in Sapa, I reccommend Khu's service. Khu speaks excellent english so you dont have to worry about being lost in translation. Us tsaug, Khu.
