Tour Overview
As well as having some of the most striking scenery in the country, Sapa is home to a great diversity of ethnic minority people.

This Adventure Sapa 3 days 2 nights will take you to the small traditional villages scattered amongst the mountains and rice paddies on an unforgettable cultural discovery.
