What a great day I had 😊 - Everything I experienced the day with Thảo was sooooo ✨😊. There were routes but it’s more of tailor made kind of hiking as Thảo constantly ask how, what I wanted. Not just the view, hike but one of or most 😅 highlight for me was the lunch served at her home 🤤🤤🤤. Highly recommend to go the ✨ hike with her 😊.

Absolutely Brilliant day - The experience we had with Khu, Pang , friends and family was unforgettable . We walked and laughed, talked and laughed , ate and laughed and laughed some more . From the fresh traditional home made lunch to learning all about their culture and farming the day was just the best. What a beautiful group of women! We were welcomed like we were family and I’ll never forget this day spent in their village .

Highly recommended! - The trekking tour with Thào Thikhu was an incredible experience. It was my favorite activity in Sa Pa, and I highly recommend it. Thào Thikhu picked us up from our Airbnb with two of her friends and we embarked on a 3-hour trek down the mountains. She then took us to her village house where she prepared a delicious meal for us. We had the option to hike up or take a car, but we opted for the car as we were exhausted after the trek. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Sa Pa.

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.

Challenging and wonderful... - Challenging and wonderful trak. Lunch at our guides home was the crowning touch. Khu, our guide was informative and caring. Helped me to manage the rougher parts of the path. Great day! Try to have her as your guide.

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.
