Sapa tours are one of the most fantastic things to do when coming to Vietnam, something can leave tourists peace in the soul, deep impressions, and unforgettable
memories.” – that’s what most of the tourists who have just come back from a
trip to Vietnam said.
Even though Halong Bay, Nha Trang or Hoi An are the most tourist attractions of Vietnam
which have brought thousands of tourists to Vietnam each year, there’s a destination that’s known as
the paradise for bikers and especially trekkers, that’s Sapa.
You can easily fall in love with the friendliness of the
ethnic people if experiencing the homestay Sapa tours, can feel the warmth right in the
middle of this cold region if seeing the lovely smile of
the children as well as the women here, their smile always brightens up all the
mist-wrapped scenery here. If there’s any chance, you
can try experiencing their daily works as real farmers
of Sapa. It’ll be very hard but relaxing, which can help you forget all the worry that you still keep in mind before starting
this trip, help you know that the people in Sapa are very optimistic even though
they have to work a lot and save every penny.
Thanks to those experiences, Sapa tours are no more just a
trip to a mountainous region but also a journey full of memories and lessons that you
can learn from the lovely locals.
For any time in a year, making the Sapa tours in Vietnam will leave you a deep
impression and wonderful experience. But to most of tourists who used to been in the Sapa trekking tours, they
all say that the best Sapa tours Vietnam is a tour which is made in September to October, which means in the Autumn of this land, when Sapa is
covered with stunning golden terraced fields which looks like a
magical yellow ribbon of the Mother Earth.
