Review for: From Ha Noi: Ninh Binh & Sapa Trekking 3-Day Tour with Sleeper Bus

I did have a lot of fun even if it was a solo travel, I did not feel alone because the tour guides, hotel staff and transport staff all did well to make sure we are safe and enjoying the trip. Though sometimes the not so nice weather may affect the expectations, which are understandable as they are beyond our control. But all in all, the trip has been a smooth and wonderful experience.

More about From Ha Noi: Ninh Binh & Sapa Trekking 3-Day Tour with Sleeper Bus

Discover the beauty of northern Vietnam on this 3-day journey to Ninh Binh and Sapa. Begin in Ninh Binh with a peaceful Tam Coc boat ride, where traditional sampan boats glide through winding rivers surrounded by dramatic limestone mountains and rice fields. After lunch, hike to the top of Mua Cave and admire breathtaking panoramic views over the Tam Coc valley. In the evening, board an overnight soft-sleeper train to Lao Cai, a memorable travel experience through northern Vietnam. Continue to Sapa, where guided trekking takes you through the spectacular Muong Hoa Valley, passing terraced rice fields and traditional villages such as Y Linh Ho, Lao Chai, and Ta Van. Finish your journey with a visit to Cat Cat Village before returning comfortably to Hanoi by limousine.
