TRIP ITINERARY

A 2 day trek to Ta Phin, Sapa is a bucket-list item of many tourists in Vietnam. This trekking tour will take you to the beautiful Ta Phin, where you can visit the terrace rice fields, ethnic minority villages, local houses and schools. With the help of your friendly local guide, you’ll learn about the daily activities and culture of the local people as your walk through the landscapes that Sapa is famous for.

Day 1: Sapa - Ma Tra - Ta Phin

Our guide will meet you at your hotel in Sapa and you’ll begin the trek at around 9AM. First you’ll pass through Ma Tra Village, a Black H’mong community, walking through rice paddy fields and spectacular scenery. You’ll also have the opportunity to stop by a local school.

We’ll then take a break for lunch in the village. After a short rest you’ll continue trekking, seeing local houses and visiting nearby caves. We’ll arrive before sunset at Ta Phin and stay with a local Red Zao family there who will prepare you dinner.

Day 2: Ta Phin - Trung Chai - Sapa

After breakfast we’ll continue our journey, off-the-beaten-path, to some more Red Zao villages located within the mountains. En route there will be many opportunities to take photos of the breath-taking scenery.

We’ll stop for a picnic lunch and a jeep will then take you back to Sapa. You’ll have time for dinner and a shower, before being driven to Lao Cai Station in time for the night train or sleeping bus back to Hanoi.

    Ha Chiang loop for an old boy

    Well what can I say about my Ha Chiang loop trip I did with Yesd. They were excellent from start to finish. As a 54 year old man I did the loop solo with my driver Chinh as I wanted to avoid the happy water and karaoke aspect. Chinh understood this perfectly and took me on a fabulous trip. We took local routes when he could, avoiding some of main routes. He kept ahead of the ‘Mongolian army’ as he called the throngs of other loopers and often arrived at view points before they arrived …

    An authentic and sustainable experience

    It was a unique experience that allowed me to truly experience sustainable tourism. The activities took place in breathtaking landscapes and gave us the opportunity to learn firsthand about the traditions and lifestyle of the local communities. The team was very attentive and took care of every detail to ensure we enjoyed our stay to the fullest.
    Realmente lo recomiendo! es una manera hermosa de descubrir Ha Giang y, al mismo tiempo, contribuir a un turismo responsable.

    A memory for life

    An amazing experience! Incredible guides! You almost feel privileged compared to other groups. The accommodation is top-notch; the house, the welcome, the meals—everything is perfect. The mountain trek is magical, the motorbike trek is insane (beware of sore bums by the end!), incredible views the whole time, and super enriching stories. It really puts things into perspective compared to our European comforts—it feels great! To conclude this review, thank you again to the entire YESD Travel team; they are truly wonderful people.

    I'm Chi, a local guide in Sapa. I only finished my secondary school and learnt English from tourists while selling my mom's embroidery bracelets. I have worked as a guide for 10 years. Thanks to the job, I earnt some and saved a bit for my small family with two daughters. Many of the local youth could not afford to go to colleges, so tour guiding is our main job and an important source of our income. Thanks for travelling with YESD and choosing Sapa as your destination.
