Itinerary

Day 1:
 
From Hanoi boarding a night train at 9:30pm or 10:00pm (first class airconditioned soft sleeper) 

Day 2:   Arrive Lao Cai at 4:30 am in the morning, and transfer to Sapa town, check in hotel, stay at leisure and seeing Sapa town (1,500,000m above sea level, weather is always very comfortable in summer and down to average of 7degree in winter), chatting with minority groups is a fun..

Day 3: AM: leaving Sapa early in the morning, passing some villages of some minority groups, climbing upward until you reached to the rainforest. Overnight at the elevation of 2000metres. (there are some porters to help you carrying your stuff), the view is so great but also dangerous from cliffs! 

Day 4: The next day, after breakfast, you will continue climbing to reach to the roof of Vietnam at the height of 3143metres- viewing Sapa town-and all areas around. You will have a feeling of being hero and brave yourself  (today is harder than the first day, more steep, at the last part of climbing you will have to hold up to a rope to get to the top). A picnic lunch on the top then get back to the camp at the altitude of 2100metres, sleep and have your dinner in the camp

Day 5: After the morning coffee you will start going down. You are to Sapa town in the afternoon. Well done, congratulation! 

Day 6:
Morning our guide will bring by van or jeep to Lao Chai and Ta Van for another great view and back for lunch in town, stay at leisure at you hotel, afternoon transfer to Lao Cai train station for Hanoi, 

Day 7: Morning arrive Hanoi at 5:00 am in the morning, take you to your hotel. End Tour

Warning! climbing to Fansipan is a very difficult adventure: cliffs of rock mountains, wet, and slippy, and is very cold in winter time. Many people have reached to the top of Fansipan and felt great them self and admired the beauty, but quite a few people had to surrender the Fansipan when they were in the middle of the trip, so please don't try if you are not confident and it may spoil your holiday.


We provide you a professional climbing guide and porters to carry your bag and food...!
