Great excursion - We had a great day with Meme, who speaks very good English and takes the time to explain the local culture. We visited different villages and rice fields, and met very few tourists!

“Unforgettable Adventure with Stunning Views and Great Hospitality” - The tour provided an unforgettable experience, combining adventure, natural beauty, and cultural immersion. The guide, Meme, ensured the group’s safety and made the journey enjoyable. A highlight was witnessing the dramatic weather shift from foggy and cold to warm and sunny, adding to the scenic charm. The tour also included a memorable meal at Ta Phin, likely offering a taste of local cuisine. Overall, it was a well-rounded experience that blended stunning landscapes, great hospitality, and cultural insights.

Fabulous day learning about local ethnic groups and their culture! - What a fabulous day spent on the back of a motorbike, driven by the knowledgeable and warm May! Hands down one of the best guides I’ve had during my time in Vietnam - not only is she extremely knowledgeable about her peoples (Red Dao) and other groups around, she has a great sense for pace and flexibility which I truly value! It was plenty misty when I was there so you can’t see much around, but I very much enjoyed our conversations about the local cultures, and the highlight of the day was definitely crashing a village wedding, dressed in the fabulous, borrowed garb of her sweet mom! Thank you for being so generous and I hope to pay you all another visit in the near future!🤗

Unforgettable Experience - This was an incredible and unforgettable experience with May. You truly do get off the beaten track and see areas you would not normally see (I saw no other tourists!). The scenery, the villages and the people on this thrilling ride will never be forgotten. I was able to ride my own bike and had so much fun doing so. I also learned so much about the people, the culture and the way of life of those in the area. May was outstanding and the lunch she made was delicious! I would do this again in a heartbeat and highly recommend this tour.

Great day out in Sapa with May - Great day out exploring Sapa with May. Took us to her home and made us lunch which was great. Had a sample of the local home brew which made the trip back fly by. Some of the most incredible views and very experienced driver. Managed to keep the bike upright even with my 110Kg on the back. Why wife was dubious about the day but really enjoyed it. Look no further. Book a say with May

Motorbike Sapa - Not only is May an amazing guide but she welcomed us into a day in her life and into her home. Two of us opted to ride our own bikes which proved a challenge with the condition of the roads but made for an exhilarating experience! The other two in our group had drivers, the drivers were extremely knowledgeable and the day flew by! The lunch we had at May’s home was some of the best food we’d had in Vietnam, fresh, flavorful but simple. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to explore the SaPa area. And don’t skip the herbal bath, this was a total highlight of the trip! If you have any aches and pains mention them to May and she will fix your right up.

Most amazing half day tour off the beaten path with May - We have just take the half day tour with the amazing May on the off the beaten path tour..I can honestly say it’s been the best day I’ve had on my adventure around SE Asia so far! I can’t recommend May enough..she’s so knowledgable about her country ..and her local area…we went to local villages, cacao farms, salmon farms, a huge cave, the herbal bath ladies and the bamboo forest..and all down the local bike paths for the best views!vand the views were breath taking 😍 and no tourists at all apart from a couple of hikers! The best part of all May invited us into her home..that she shares with her husband, two boys and all her extended family..not to mention a very cute kitten! Ask to see her embroidery work it’s stunning and I came away with a beautiful souvenir for my home 🙂I’ll very much treasure it. I learnt so much about Vietnam and about fancy curry the every day lives of local people like May and her family… not only that we chatted away like old friends! I can’t wait to return to Vietnam and stay with May and her family to do some hiking in the near future! Thanks so much May you are a gem! 💓
