About This Tour
Hike with me and experience the mountainous wonders of Sa Pa. You will join me for a full day hike starting at your hotel in Sa Pa town trekking down the Muong Hoa valley toward two nearby villages - Lao Chai and Ta Van. A national treasure for the Vietnamese is the breathless, captivating view of the Sa Pa rice fields cutting through the steep terrains surrounding the tallest mountain of Vietnam - Fansipan. As we hike through the valley, you will see up-close of the rice fields, wild flowers, and the majestic Fansipan mountain ranges in the backdrop. We will experience the day-to-day lives of the local farmers, minority children, and get to play with the pristine rivers carving through the rice fields in Hoang Lien National Park.
