"Excellent one day homestay experience with Phing"
De La Baie d’Halong aux Temples d’Angkor , December 2012
Reviewed On: Apr 05, 2019We did a fantastic one day homestay experience with Phinh, our guide and host for the day. We are very glad Trekking Sapa was very flexible. As a family with 2 children aged 6 and 8 we wanted to do a 2 day trek with a one night homestay in a Hmong village. Due to my wife feeling sick we had to change our plans at the last minute and Trekking Sapa was very responsive and flexible. So we did only a one day experience. The weather was very foggy and rainy so we changed our plans once again and the 3 hour trek turned into a one hour trek with a meal at Phinh's place. We started our day at the local market and then took a cab to the mountains. We then walked about one hour before reaching Phinh's house. There we had a real good time by helping Phinh preparing the meal. Our kids played with Phinh's and everybody seemed to enjoy the time spent together. So we can only recommend Trekking Sapa. We spoke to Phinh and she told us how glad she was about working with them as they really care about their guides.Her previous experiences as a guide with other organizations did not seem to be as good. You should definitely choose Trekking Sapa for a responsible and sustainable tour among local peopleSimon-Germany

"With the local guide"
De La Baie d’Halong aux Temples d’Angkor , December 2012
Reviewed On: Feb 02, 2019I am a seasoned traveller and I can honestly say you will not go wrong with choosing Trekking Sapa for your private trek. I did the 3N2D homestay option. This means you will receive an authentic insight into the culture of a genuine tribe. This is not always possible with mass produced tours. You will also get better value for your money because there are no middle men. Your tour is 100% personalized and you will not feel like you are confined to a conveyor belt type trek. With the local guide, then you can easily alter the itinerary upon your request at any time. I highly recommend using this reliable company for your trip. I travelled in the middle of winter and was concerned about the possibility of freezing weather and poor visibility. I was lucky the visibility was good on all days of my trek however I would still recommend to come no matter what the weather forecast says. Mountain weather can change in an instant (good or bad) and it would be a waste not to visit this beautiful area. The village is located lower than Sapa town so it is warmer. I originally thought of staying in a hotel every night however I am glad I changed to homestay. It was not too cold overnight with thick blankets. I am glad I picked this company for my Sapa experience and I highly recommend you do too!Bryan Lumley - Canada

Every time we became winded, she stopped and told us a story or explained a cultural aspect of where we were in the Sapa Hmong villages. She explained the sewing techniques that she used on her Black Hmong garb when we are on our last uphill before lunch, that informative respite that kept us going.
