10 Budget-friendly Things to do in Sapa That You Shouldn't Miss

May 22, 2021 Jacquiline Delozier

The northwest market town of Sapa is colorful and charming, providing the perfect oasis in the midst of a strenuous mountain trek or rice-paddy tour. The Gothic stone church at the center of town is a bull’s-eye in the center of shops and stalls, serving as a reminder of the town’s French missionary influence. Dine on Vietnamese or European-inspired cuisine downtown, and don’t miss the Saturday night "love market," one of the most potent—and strictest—single’s nights imaginable.

Sapa Smile Travel

Teamwork for community Established in 2013 under the support of some foriegn travelers who were really enjoyable by me (Tamay and my sister Giang Thi Rua) after the tour concluded. In order to increase my great hospitality to make my beloved clients more and more satisfied, therefore i decided to expand from a personal worker into a teamwork for community. Sa Pa Smile Travel was named by all of our fellow travelers, this mean we always consider as close friends to support and grow the best tour products together for clients in particular and our community in general so i tried my best to convince some more of my good friends to build a teamwork to do tourism in the area together to have more incomes... Many thanks once again with best regards, Members of Sa Pa Smile Travel Guide team: Ms. Tamay – Incharge person, Giang Thi Rua, Maytrang, Sunglan, Atrang, Mayphuong, Losu, Kor, Zusu , May San...

Sapa Tribal Trekking

We want to provide you with the most fantastic and authentic Trekking experience in Sapa. Our main guidewas born in a village local to Sapa, called Ta Van (a village you are likely to experience during your treks). Giang spent her early years growing up in Ta Van but then her parents moved to the mountains, she did too and spent the rest of her childhood there. Giang went to school between the ages of 10 to 13, after which she started working. Giang speaks excellent English which she has learnt entirely from interacting with others. About 6 years ago Giang moved to Sapa and began working as a Tour Guide. Giang's parents remain living in the mountains. Giang, like the rest of our tour guides knows Sapa like the back of her hand and will be able to provide you with the most fantastic trek, tell you all about the different cultures, tribes and traditions, talk you through the history and show you the most beautiful sites of Sapa. Giang lives in Sapa with her husband and 2 young children.
