Great experience, with the cruise docking in the less crowded Lan Ha Bay overnight, with beautiful unblocked views of the area. Small cruise with 20 cabins, so u don’t get a big and noisy group onboard. Guide Quang was helpful and accomodate to everyone’s needs.
Jill
it has been an amazing trip and i‘m really glad that i‘ve invested some time for research and have found seeksophie for ha giang loop. great drivers, cool locations for taking a rest and stay overnight, small group size and same-minded fellows in the group. paired with perfect weather it was an unforgettable experience!
Mario
We learnt so much and tried many yummy drinks!
Thank you to Giang she was so lovely
Zoe
Amazing tour! We did the 3D/2N. Absolutely beautiful! The hosts were super friendly, had love for their jobs and had a lot of knowledge about the history of Cat Ba and the scenery. It was well organized from the food to the activities and transport. This is your cruise if you are looking for an authentic experience in a small setting. Thank you Cat Ba Vision!

This was a fantastic workshop. Every staff member involved was helpful, professional and polite. Lyn, our host, eagerly shared her expert knowledge of the coffee culture in Vietnam then proceeded to guide us when we were making 6 types of coffee often imbibed in Vietnam. It was great fun, made even better by using professional, well looked after equipment. It was a gently paced workshop where I didn't feel hurried. We're going to be sent recipes to try and recreate them at home.
A highly recommended workshop.
Thank you team.
Caroline
It was great fun! However, the output of photos / videos could be standardised.

This was a great overview of how Vietnamese works as well as some practice with the group. I had a very nice time with our host and we went to order coffee in Vietnamese afterwards!

My husband and I did a private trek from Sapa to Hau Thau Village with a guide named Qi from the Black Hmong community. Qi was very friendly and taught us about local agriculture and traditional Hmong customs. Her English was limited but we were able to communicate just fine.
A few things to be aware of before going on this tour:
- there were two ladies who followed us for 2 hours, trying to guilt us into buying stuff. Many of the other tour groups we saw had the same thing happen to them. I don’t know if this is avoidable regardless of the company you choose. Before the ladies finally left, they got quite aggressive and said, “we have been walking walking with you all day. Buy something.” When we declined, they walked off angrily. Again, I think this is a problem that may not be avoidable
- This tour is good for cultural facts about the Hmong. I recommend going to the Sapa Museum (it’s free) before doing this tour so you have the big picture context first
- The “local family dinner” that we paid extra for was a family-style dinner with guests of the homestay — not a meal with a local Hmong family. I spoke with Zizi about if afterward and it was just lost in translation situation. But I was expecting dinner with a local Hmong family. My husband and I had a good laugh about this mix up, and enjoyed our meal, but you should set your expectations appropriately!
Overall, it was nice to have someone lead us from village to village and share surface-level facts. I do also like knowing that we supported a Hmong-owned and run business.
