At an elevation of 1,600
meters, Sapa is a delightful former French hill station
situated in the mountainous region of Vietnam's northwest,
close to the Chinese border. The region is home to many
ethnic minority groups, each wearing traditional and
colorful attire. This trip includes a trek through the
hills and valleys of the Sapa region, discovering several
different minorities along the way. You will experience
overnight accommodation in the charming and hospitable Red
Dao and Tay villages. Often there is no electricity or
running water and in some cases bedding can be a layer of
straw covered with a mat. The apparent hardships are worth
it though as we walk through some of the most spectacular
scenery that Vietnam has to offer and experience unique
villages culture.
