Sapa Walking Experience

Please ensure that you are ready and waiting in the hotel lobby for your pick-up time. Take a slow walk through the charming streets of Sapa town. The town was once French colonial roots which was once a hill station for Europeans seeking mountain air in the early 1900s.

Visit the iconic stone church and the town square. Get insight into a unique story of Sapa’s Love Market, a traditional courtship ritual among the Hmong and Dao youth. Just a quick stop in front of a local restaurant that specializes in “Thang Co”, a traditional horse meat stew of the Hmong ethnic minority group. It’s cooked with several unique ingredients giving the taste too strong for travelers. Along the way, you will see how the town balances tradition and development. Learn about the different ethnic groups who live in Sapa including Hmong, Dao, Tay, and how they preserve cultural identity while improving local living standards.

A beautiful trail leads you to Cat Cat village. You’ll pass by ethnic homes, small cafés, and panoramic views. It offers a chance to interact with locals and feel the rhythm of mountain life. Then snap some cool shots at the Tien Sa Waterfall where has been poetically named “Love Waterfall” and has quickly become a favorite photo spot for beautiful young women and romantic couples alike. Let’s explore traditional craft areas to see how flax is turned into fabric, witness beeswax drawing techniques, taste a sample of local rice wine, or enjoy a live folk performance.

Unwind at a hidden café overlooking the valley. Enjoy your drink while soaking in the mountain breeze.
