Are the trekking tours difficult? Can I add a beach stay?

The tour price does not include return flight ticket from your country to Hanoi. There is a part of tour in Sapa which is trekking tour. The hotel is in the city, not near the beach. If you want to stay at the beach, you can choose a package in the Central of Vietnam or we can make a customize tour for you.

Places I wish to visit are 1. Ninh Binh(Must see: Bai Dinh Pagoda, Trang an Grotto, Mua hike) 2. Sapa (Must see: Fanspian peak via cable car, love waterfalls, Tram Ton Pass view point, nice view of Rice paddy fields, may be any local villages) 3.Ha lang bay or Lan ha or Bai Tu (Must do: One day trip to bay, overnight cruise is optional, Nice view point covering the bay. Stay in cat ba and exploring cat ba.) 4. Hanoi local. Meal Preference: Vegetarian.

Overall, we were pleased with our “Highlights “ tour. I think anyone booking this should know that you are not travelling with a group (as on most tours). It’s really a string of day or two-day tours put together. This particular grouping of activities had a LOT of bus time, so you want to pay attention to that. We changed our second day in Sa Pa to include the cable car up Mount Fansipan. This was definitely a highlight for us (we were supposed to do a 7 km trek). The hotels were all fine. The Lavender Hotel was centrally located, so we were usually the last picked up and the first to be dropped off. The hotel in Sa Pa was basic but the proprietor was exceptional.Show more

Everything is well organized and Lee is an excellent travel agent. I’m a solo traveler and unfortunately it wasn’t a group travel tour. I was on each trip with a different group. The hotels are well selected. The tour to sapa was a bit disappointing as the weather was bad and the guide made us walk thru mud and we had to go down a step hill and I fell in the mud and messed up my clothes. I’m really questioning why she chose to take this trail ! The trip to Halong bay was good, the cruise is pretty old but the cabins are clean and beds are comfortable. The hotel is Hanoi is very central and most attractions are just walking distance.Show more

Dear Helena, Thanks for your feedback about the package tour we arranged for you 'Viet Nam highlight 7 days 6 nights in Hanoi". I regret that you had a bad experience with Sapa because the weather on that day was not good and the road have only one way if you visited Sapa on the nice day you will feel with nice view because Sapa is one of nice destination to visit. And I am happy with your feedback about Ha Long bay and the hotel we arranged for you during the time you stayed in Hanoi I hope that you will use our services for next destination in the future Kind regards, From Asia Focus Travel Teams
