This North Vietnam & Sapa Excursions offered by Incredible Asia Journeys is a new group trekking tour around the phenomenal Sapa region in Northern Vietnam. On this tour, we focus on your interaction with members of Sapa’s various hill tribes, staying at two homestays from two different ethnic minorities and meeting many others along the way. We see where and how they live, with their contoured rice paddies descending the beautiful Sapa mountains to the valleys below.
We can see glorious forests of bamboo, imposing rocky mountains, and the cascading Lavie Waterfall. The Sapa Homestay 3-Day Tour offers trekkers a comprehensive feel of Sapa through its diverse itinerary and freedom for self-exploration.
