Experience the real live in the villages
Jan_B, Oct 2023
We hat a great time with our guide My. The beautiful nature and views was one part of the tour. Besides this My showed us the real live in the villages, we learned a lot about the local people, met the families and lived with them for one day. All in all a great experience for everyone who wants to see the reality off the beaten track!
Fantastic experience hiking through beautiful Sapa with Ethos
LauraLouise_C, Apr 2023
We had a brilliant time on our 2 day Sapa trip with Ethos. Our Hmong guide was friendly and considerate, and she told us interesting things about the plants we saw and way of life. The hikes took us through beautiful areas that we wouldn’t have seen otherwise during our trip in Sapa (unless we braved a hike by ourselves) so we’d highly recommend. We weren’t sure what to expect from the homestay but it was clean and comfortable staying with our guide and her family, and we were cooked delicious fresh meals both for our evening meal and for the lunches with local families on route. We deliberated about what to pack - but our most appreciated items were wet wipes and suncream! An amazing experience and we wouldn’t hesitate to do it again or recommend. We also really appreciated booking through Ethos as they truly support the local community. As well as this they were very helpful in advising us about our trip and facilitating transfers.

Notre guide, Kae, nous a emmené dans des sites splendides,- forêts, rizières, jungle-, et nous a présenté à sa famille. Nous n’avons pas croisé d’autres touristes, et jamais nous n’aurions pu découvrir ces chemins escarpés. Les membres de la famille de Kae sont des gens exceptionnels, gais, heureux et très hospitaliers. Nous avons été très émus de cet accueil et ravis. Merci 1000 fois!!!
