We had this trip laid out on a very short notice, despite all hazzles for visas, payment, arrangements, paper work etc. all worked out, perfectly arranged by Mr. Hong. Our knowledgable guide was extremely helpful preparing extra curricular affairs organized on spot, all added up to a very unique experience. Highly recommend.

Fantastic trekking experience with My
Reviewed On: Sep 20, 2023JamesUnited Kingdom

We did the 3 nights / 2 day hike through Sapa and had a fantastic trekking experience. The tour was well-organized from beginning to end. Our guide My took us through the non-touristy routes of Sapa, and hence had a very relaxing hiking experience with gorgeous views. We did the 1-night homestay, which looks out on a rice field. Recommended to watch the sunset here! A special thanks to Hong from AsiaTourAdvisor for his proactivity and prompt replies!

“The best tour guide”
Reviewed On: Apr 12, 2023Penny PengSingapore

Sunny was great help in planning our entire itinerary and making sure everything was prompt and in place. Our guide – sung my- was the best guide we’ve ever had on any of our holidays. She speaks good English, has much knowledge to share, very humble, made sure we were well taken cared of and her little jokes, still makes me laugh. Was a ready goodbye when we had to leave. If you need a guide, I’d say go with Sung My!! Penny Peng-Singapore

“Awesome!”
Reviewed On: Mar 08, 2023LauraAustralia

I did the off the Beaten Treck with 3 other people and it was awesome! Our guide was Xuan May, she was lovely and her English was really good! She belongs to the Dzao and she told us a lot about their culture and the life in the sapa mountains. The first day it would rain almost the whole Treck, but it was fun and the views just amazing! On the first day we walked 1,5 hours uphill and another 1,5 until the lunchbreak in a small village. After the lunch we went off the Beaten track, along rice paddies, through rivers and over bamboo bridges. The path was quite difficult because everything was muddy and slippery. After going down and upp the valley we arrived at her village. We stayed with her husband, her children weren’t at home that night. The dinner and breakfast at her house were very good and the atmosphere very nice. The next day we went straight uphill for 3 hours and because it stopped raining it was quite hot. After we reached the top of the valley we walked down to the blue hmong village for another hour. We had lunch and a minibus drove us back to the office of AisaTourAdvisor. We could have a free shower before and after the trek. We met only two other tourist during the whole trek!! Laura-Australian

“Trekking Sapa”
Reviewed On: Feb 23, 2023Christof PieskerGermany

My girlfriend and I went on a 2 days trekking tour with AsiaTourAdvisor. This was the best experience of our 2 week trip in Vietnam. Our local guide has a natural instinct for hospitality and went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and having a good time. It goes without saying that the scenery in Sa Pa is amazing. After a long day of trekking, we ate a delicous home cooked meal in homestay. Despite being in a remote locale, the food was some of the best we’d eaten in Vietnam. Our guide is incredibly knowledgeable of the area and she speaks English better than anyone I met in Vietnam. If I ever go to Vietnam again I will make every effort to do a tour with this business again. Christof Piesker – Germany
