Sapa Tour

With a height of around 1500–1650 meters above sea level, Sapa is one of the fascinating tourist destinations in the northern region of Vietnam. Sapa is a country of humility and peaceful beauty that conceals stunning natural scenery. It is also home to several ethnic minorities, including the Black H’Mong, Red Dzao, Xa Pho, Tay, and Zay. Sapa is also known as the “town in the cloud” because when people visit, they forget about everything and enjoy the fresh air, clouds, sky, beautiful beauty, and spectacular location.
