“We booked through TrekingSapa and was very delighted with the arrangement by the tour agent Hong. He helped my family of 4 pax to book a limousine van to Sapa. The driver picked us up promptly at our hotel in Hanoi and the journey was very comfortable which took us around 5 hours with scenic views.
Highly recommended to contact Mr. Hong if you would like to consider booking a tour visit to Sapa.“
