Highlights

This 2 day hiking and cultural tour which introduces you to some of the tribes of the region while hiking though the spectacular Muong Hoa Valley with its rice terraces & rivers in your vista. If that wasn't enough, you also have the Dragon Mountain range in the background! Your hiking and cultural guide is a member of the Black Hmong who have lived in the same region for hundreds of years and know the area better than anyone.


These private tour groups are small (more than 5 people needs special arrangement) so you are guaranteed a personal experience and memories to last a lifetime. If there is a little extra something you would like to do or see, please just ask us and we will see how we can make your trip just that little bit extra special.

Itinerary

Hiking to Y Linh Ho, Lao Chai & Ta Van
  • Y Linh Ho

    30 minsAdmission Ticket Included
    Our 2 day tour package starts by picking you up at around 9am from your hotel in central Sapa. Getting out of Sapa is easy as it's quite a small town and it's not long before we hit the small hiking trails (entrance fee to the valley is included) and going down through the rice fields, enjoying the specular views along the way. Our 1st destination is the village of Y Linh Ho, where we take a quick rest stop right beside the river (swimming here is possible in the summer time). There is a local shop for supplies for anyone requiring extra water etc. After crossing the bridge we head towards the rice paddy fields and Lao Chai.
  • Lao Chải

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    Lunch is provided in Lao Chai. You can choose from traditional Hmong food or Vietnamese. Please do let us know in advance if you are vegetarian or vegan so we can make the necessary arrangements. Lao Chai is known for its handicraft and hemp weaving. We will visit one of The Hmong Family homes to see and learn how the traditional clothes are made. There is an option to buy the handicrafts and textiles which directly supports the villagers.
  • Ta Van Village

    12 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    In the afternoon we set off once again hiking up to Ta Van with amazing views of the Muong Hoa Valley. Ta Van is our destination for the rest of the day and also where our homestay for the night is located. We aim to get to Ta Van around 3pm and there is much to do. From meeting and being introduced to the villagers (there are 3 tribes in the village, Black Hmong, Red Dao and Zay), watching the sunset, learning about traditional Hmong cooking and even having a go yourself if you wish. Supper is also included in the tour package price and is usually served around 7pm. For those that are old enough, a small glass of locally made rice wine can be enjoyed with the family. Evening chatter will take the time up to 9pm. Sleep is at 10pm so there is plenty of time to watch the stars outside if the skies are clear.

We will then head off around 9am to hike to the bamboo forest - a favourite among many guests. The Giang ta chai waterfalls are next to see on the iteanrry. You can also swim there if the weather is good, just take photos or enjoy the natural beauty. The choice is yours.
