Private tour
Introduction
 At
a elevation of 1600 meters, Sapa is
a delightful old French hill station
situated in the mountainous region
of Vietnams' northwest, close to the
Chinese border. The region is home
to many ethnic minorities groups all
wearing their traditional and
colourful attire. This trip includes
a 4-day trek through the hills and
valleys in the
Sapa region. Average
walking time for each day is around
6 hours, passing through H'mong,
Day, Tho, Tay, Nhang, and Red Dao
communities. Three nights are spent
in these minority villages so be
warned, you will have to do without
some modern comforts on this one.
Often there is no electricity or
running water and bedding can be a
layer of straw covered with a mat in
some cases. The apparent hardships
are worth it though as we walk
through some of the most spectacular
scenery that Vietnam has to offer.
