    It was amazing! With our local guide Nhu, we had the opportunity to get to know their culture. It was super interesting to learn about the different ethnic minorities that live in the villages below Sapa. The hiking through the rice fields is an experience I wont forget! It was beautiful and with our guide we took beautiful paths and had really nice views.

    I had an unforgettable trip to Sapa with Best Vietnam Tours. The scenery was breathtaking, the trekking through local villages was authentic, and our guide was kind, knowledgeable, and made everything smooth. The homestay in Tả Van was cozy and welcoming. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore the real Sapa!
