Most unique trekking experience in SaPa - This trekking with Pang and Khu was beyond expectations! My friends and I traveled Asia for 2.5 weeks and this was my favorite activity! It was so special to be able to help cook and eat at Khu’s own house! We got to learn a lot about their culture. They were so happy and we laughed so much! The views were unbelievable. 100% recommend doing it with them! Feel free to message Khu on WhatsApp for questions at +84 98 237 94 43.

One day trekking experience - After 5 months travelling south east Asia this was the best day we had. These women and everyone involved in making this trekking experience so special are amazing. They go above and beyond to educate you about their culture, their village and their way of life. They are so generous and truly deserve all the luck in the world. So please if you go to Sapa choose these guides. I promise you won’t regret it. The food we helped cook and prepare was lovely. It was just me and my girlfriend there on that day and was the highlight of our trip.

Amazing trekking tour with Khu in Lao Chai! - I had an unforgettable experience on the Trekking Tour with Khu in Lao Chai. Walking through the stunning rice fields and visiting local villages felt like stepping into another world. Khu is an amazing guide — knowledgeable, warm, and always ready to share stories about her culture and the beautiful landscape. Her genuine care and passion made this tour truly special. If you want an authentic and heartwarming adventure, I highly recommend exploring Lao Chai with Khu!

Trek to Lao Chai village - This was truly an incredible experience with Pang today. We learnt so much, saw incredible sights, tried on Hmong clothing and got to see how she weaves hemp. I even had a little attempt at spinning some hemp myself. It was truly a magical experience walking amongst the rice terraces. The food at her house was spectacular and we even got involved in making the spring rolls. We had a blast. There ladies that took just the 2 of us in the tour were gorgeous. We felt so lucky to have had them as our guides.

Amazing Trek - Definitely worth booking - We had the best time with Khu exploring the rice paddy fields and her village. Khu's English is excellent. We chatted and laughed all day and sampled her incredible cooking when we had lunch at her home. If we ever come back, we'll make sure to see her again! Will be recommending to anyone who goes to Sapa! Thanks for a lovely day Khu, love Sam and Nell

A wonderful trek - We had such a great day with Khu! She is a delightful person and full of knowledge. She makes the day great fun and you can choose the type of trek you would like. We met Khu in Sapa town centre where she explained everything to us and we knew immediately it was the perfect trek for us. Khu and her family also prepared lunch for us in her home which was delicious and some of the nicest food we've eaten in Vietnam. We saw other groups going to restaurants instead and we were so happy we were with Khu looking after us in her home. You can contact Khu directly on +84 98 237 94 43

Loved it!! - We booked this tour as part of our visit to Sapa and loved it! Khu was so kind and funny, she really made the tour fun and engaging. We started off along a trail with a few other tour groups but then she took us in a different direction with less tourist that provided a more authentic experience. The trek is pretty long but she provided lots of interesting facts and it was a really great experience. She took us to her home for lunch and it was delicious!! We loved this experience and would recommend it for anyone wanting to visit the rice fields and local villages in Sapa.

Beautiful tour with a great guide! - Great tour that started in the morning at the main Square in Sappa. Khu picked us up there and took us to pick up to other guests. She then asked what kind of tour we wanted to do. We all told her we wanted to do a less touristy more off-road route. So this is what she gave us. Tour itself took about 4-4,5 hours walking. After about 3 as we had a lunch at Khu's Homestay, and she, her sister (who's also a tour guide), and. Her sister made is a very nice local lunch. We rolled our own spring rolls. After that she took us through some rice fields around her village and then we took a bus back to Sapa centre. What makes this tour so great is Khu. Her English is great and she has a lot to tell. Plus an extra is that she's very funny and not shy. So all and all a day well spent.
