There is a good reason why Sapa, located high in the mountains near the border of China, is one of the most popular destinations in Northern Vietnam. Both culturally and visually, Sapa offers everything you could want from an exotic holiday. The region caters to all interests and fitness levels, whether you are looking to get off the beaten track hiking and staying overnight in remote hill tribe villages, or taking gentle day walks and staying in the comfort of your hotel in Sapa town.

In addition to the colorful display of hill tribes wearing their intricately embroidered traditional clothing, the spectacular scenery of verdant green rice paddies, thick bamboo groves and mysterious mist covered hills, offers a pleasantly cool temperature - it is no wonder French colonialists saw Sapa as the perfect summer retreat.

Trekking in the hills of Sapa through the many varied local ethnic minority villages provides both stunning views and an up close and personal insight into rural life in Vietnam. Experiencing a local homestay and the warmth and hospitality of one of the local ethnic minority families will be an experience you will never forget. The facilities may be basic but the welcoming smile will be genuine and the home cooked food truly authentic.

A visit to Sapa with Buffalo Tours can be catered to all level of experience or fitness. Rather than test your endurance on the 1,600 meter high hills you might prefer a more culturally focused experience, visiting a local market selling arts and crafts.
