You should expect a morning thick fog if you plan to do this trek during the winter season. The ladies were friendly to help during the trekking and have a conversation with you. Exchange stories if you'd like to. Prepare an extra pair of good shoes, yours will probably be covered with thick mud. The village was lovely. I believe it's even more beautiful during other seasons. Prepare to be approached by the locals there selling their wonderful handcrafted items.

The trip was really enjoyable and we got loads of great photos. The views were amazing and the women were really helpful. We saw the local culture as well as lots of rice paddies. The trek was harder than we thought and could be explained a bit better. You need to be reasonable fit and they are right in recommending trekking boots. The guides do try to sell you stuff but only at the end and it was all nice handmade items anyway so we didn’t mind. Plus they deserved it for the help they gave us on the trek. The food was nice too and plenty, there were locals trying to sell stuff there which wasn’t ideal but we got over it. Would definitely recommend.

We booked package tour which included our own guide, beautiful trekking, meals and spending the night with a family in a remote homestay. It was amazing, in the evening we celebrated a good rice harvest, the family and our guide showed extraorindinary hospitality. The guide kept us entertained during the entire trip, and I strongly support his own project every day is a green day, where all of us gathered one bag of trash to inspire the locals to keep Sapa clean. Really recommend it.
