2 days of great trekking - The two-day trekking and homestay experience in Sapa with guide Sinh was unforgettable. On the first day we started our journey in the city of Sapa, hiking along beautiful hiking trails and arriving in a small village where we stayed with our host family. Guide Sinh was dedicated and knowledgeable, sharing insights into local culture and nature. The host family was very welcoming and prepared a delicious dinner so we could feel the warmth of the place. On the second day we explored the surrounding villages and visited a local market. When we returned to the city in the afternoon, we were satisfied with the perfect mix of trekking and cultural immersion.

Hosted for 3 days near Sapa - Toa is the perfect guide and host, very personable and delivers a great experience. We hiked about 10km through the paddy fields and the clouds, together with a local homestead lunch and visit to an authentic (rather than tourist) village. A genuine experience carefully tailored to not only match but exceed our expectations. I would and have thoroughly recommend this wonderfully fun and professional guide.

Pleasent experience in Sapa 2d1n trek - We did a 2 day 1 night trek with a homestay in Sapa. The trek was manageable, not too tough with some muddy portions. Toa was an amazing guide who made the experience enjoyable and pleasant. We had some nice exchange on sharing our cultures during the trek as he openly shares his experiences and the traditions in vietnam, sapa. Highly recommend if you’d like a guide who’s willing to share and make the trek enjoyable!

The most amazing tour guide you can get around Sapa area! - We had the most amazing time in Sapa, walking and cycling around the most stunning rice fields, visiting the local people and learned about their culture. Our guide named “Toa”, was such a kind guy, who could tell so many stories about their culture, the people and about so much more. We really enjoyed this trip and would highly recommend anyone else to go on the same tour - you wont regret it!

The most heartwarming experience I’ve ever had! - Out of all the travel I’ve done in my life (42 countries), this was the most memorable and touching experience of my life. Toa is the most gracious, and kind guide. He genuinely cares about your experience and does his best to deliver. The community loves him, and It’s apparent by his interactions with them. I’ll be back very soon. And I hope one day with my children 🙏 Thank you Toa for who you are and what you helped me experience.

Awe-inspiring, off-the-beaten-track, culture, nature - We had the best experience going with a local guide Toa on a two-day trekking and staying at Topas Ecolodge. Toa knows everything about nature, culture in tribal villages and Vietnam and also his self-taught English is very good. Deep respect for this guy. We found this trekking in the Lonely Planet, much better and non-touristy than the trekkings offered in Sapa town. If you like off-the-beaten track and being in nature with someone who knows everything about it, this is the trekking you should book. No regrets, only good memories!

2 Day trekking in Sapa - This is my second time to visit Sapa, i didn't have a chance to trek last time so i chose this trekking trip with Sapa Local Trekking on website. It must be said that Sapa is a city that is extremely worth living and experiencing, the natural scenery is truly majestic because there is no pollution, our trip lasted 2D1N so we rested overnight at a Hmong homestay in the village, we experience their lives in a very realistic way. In particular, Bau our guide is really good and knowledgeable about local culture, always sharing with us interesting things about this place, trekking through mountains, terraced fields, bamboo forests and villages is truly a perfect experience, highly recommend

Best trekking and homestay experience - The 2d1n experience was wonderful. Keyni is the best guide you can get. he speaks English very well, shares many interesting information about local culture, takes us on a beautiful trip... in the late afternoon we arrive at the homestay of a very gentle family. The second day the scenery and trekking were more beautiful. We had a great experience and would definitely recommend this hike with Keyni! Best guide ever!
