I'm 64 and managed the Trekking (walking/hiking) without any problem. Good walking shoes are essential, I had great walking sandals on and was fine. Loved walking through Minority Villages and seeing the Rice Terraces, sampling the food along the way at watering stops etc. Our Guide was great as she was from one of the Minority Villages and could tell us first hand about the area. The people are gorgeous, happy, and friendly. Would go back and do it all again tomorrow.

After some easy and effective communication with Sinh to organise this trek, our local guide La met us at our hotel at 9am to get started.
The trek was fantastic with La giving us insight into the local minorities, whilst taking us on the road less travelled and moving through the rice fields and villages. We came across very few other tourists as La wanted to take us on the quieter roads/paths. This meant that we saw small villages, families and the way of living. It felt very insightful and was very interesting.
As we travelled further, taking in the beautiful scenery we stopped for lunch and enjoyed some fried noodles and vegetables.
We finished the tour after crossing a river and visiting another local minority village which was a lot busier and seemed to be where a lot of the tourists went. However, La took as away from the main tracks and we took in the last of the beautiful views before being picked up and taken back to our hotel.
This was a brilliant experience! Thank you to La!

We did a very nice 1 day rice field trekking tour with Sinh and his brother. Beginning of the tour was quite challeging but very fun. We got lot of information about the rice fields, area and the minority people. Lunch and sone water was included. Make sure you have good hiking shoes and some clothing for rain.

I was Invited to go to Sapa and enjoy the trip organized by Sinh. Expecting nothing as I had heard so many review on how Sapa is boring, I was shocked and amazed by the scenery of Sapa Sinh showed us through the tour.
All the terraced rice field, the H’mong children smile, the sky, the cloud and much more than that totally rocks my mind. I am 100% sure that this is the Sapa I was looking for. Natural, untouched, beautiful and ... I guess you will have to discover that by yourself with Sinh (don’t wanna be a spoiler).
Pls come and enjoy! Sinh is so far the best Sapa tour guide you need while staying in Sapa!
Thank you Sinh, wish you and your family all the best wishes in the future!

We hiked 2 days one night with Tzu, Sinh's sister. We traveled several villages and slept in a cottage in Ta Van. Tzu is an amazing guide. She answers all our questions in excellent English. We had a great time with him. Thank you for sharing your culture with so passion.
We recommand this tour for sure.

Sometimes when traveling it is difficult to receive an authentic and true experience when going with a guide, but with Sinh it is truly going on an adventure with a long time friend. He was able to accommodate the trip and make it even more enjoyable than expected. I also loved how up front he was with everything and we did not have any surprises regarding trip details. We got to practice some Vietnamese, English and Spanish. He is very sweet and knowledgeable about Sapa and the surrounding areas and he really enjoyed sharing his culture with us. Thank you Sinh for making our experience in Sapa better than we could have hoped. Thank you!
