We opted for the 2d1n tour to sapa including cat cat village and fansipan peak. Cat cat village was amazing and so was fansipan except for the weather we got while up there. You spend 6-7hrs on the bus one way but it’s totally worth it. Because of the travel time I try and do the 2 nights 3 days if you can and there’s plenty to do while up there. Our tour guide and organiser were very helpful, harry came to the bus in hanoi to make sure we got on okay and that we were all ready to go which was nice.

We would recommend this trip for sure, just know there’s no guide to help you find the right bus right at the start - but apart from that it was fab.

The tour operator was attentive and took great care of us. Very informative and we were kept informed of the itinerary all the way and back.

The sleeper bus was comfortable. Our guide supported us throughout our tour so we could see the best of Sapa

Absolutely Amazing experience. Our tour guide was a local and she was Great.
