Itinerary

Sapa

30 min

The tour starts at 8:30 or 9:00 AM with a pick-up from your hotel or Sapa Stone Church in the town centre. Your local guide will contact you, meet you, and give you a short introduction to the day's itinerary before helping you choose a suitable motorbike.

If you prefer not to ride yourself, a local driver can join the tour and pick you up together with your guide. Then, we will begin the journey and explore the beautiful landscapes, waterfalls, mountain passes, and local villages of Sapa.
Thac Bac Waterfall (Silver Falls)

one hour Admission included

Silver Waterfall is a spectacular 200-metre-high waterfall located at the foot of O Quy Ho Pass, where the Muong Hoa Stream begins. During your visit, you will take a short 1 km round-trip walk to explore the waterfall and enjoy the surrounding mountain scenery.

Along the way, you’ll see cardamom plantations grown by local farmers and admire the breathtaking views of the Hoang Lien Mountain range and Muong Hoa Valley. At an altitude of over 1,800 metres above sea level, the sound of the rushing water and the fresh mountain air create a truly unforgettable experience.
Tram Ton Pass

one hour Admission included

Stop at Tram Ton Pass (Hoang Lien National Park entrance), where you’ll take a scenic walk of around 2 km along the Golden Stream to reach Love Waterfall, hidden deep in the Hoang Lien forest.

Surrounded by untouched nature, you’ll be amazed by the breathtaking mountain views, including the majestic Fansipan Peak—the highest mountain in Indochina. Take a moment to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere, listen to the sounds of birds singing, and immerse yourself in the fresh air of the Hoang Lien mountain range.
Muong Hoa Valley

3 hours Admission included

Your local guide will take you down into the beautiful Muong Hoa Valley, one of the most spectacular valleys in Northwest Vietnam. Ride through stunning rice terraces and traditional villages, including Sin Chai, Y Linh Ho, Lao Chai, Ta Van, Giang Ta Chai, Hau Thao, and Su Pan.

Along the way, you’ll discover the daily life and culture of three ethnic minority groups living in the valley. Enjoy breathtaking views of Sapa’s most impressive terraced fields and stop for a traditional lunch in Lao Chai Village, home to the Black Hmong people.

After lunch, spend around 30 minutes visiting a local Hmong family’s home, where your guide will share stories about their traditions, customs, and way of life. Continue riding through the peaceful villages of Ta Van, Giang Ta Chai, Hau Thao, and Su Pan, experiencing the authentic beauty of rural Sapa.
