We had an amazing time during our 3-day/2-night SaPa tour. Our guide, Su, was incredibly kind and helpful throughout the entire trek, taking excellent care of us.
While many other reviews mention that Cat Cat village feels overly touristy, I personally found the trek through Y Lin Ho, Hau Thao, Lao Chai, and Ta Van... villages much more enjoyable. The experience of staying in a homestay was particularly memorable, as we had the opportunity to assist in meal preparation and dine together in a family-style.
One suggestion for improvement would be to provide more detailed information about the logistics of the trek. For instance, I packed lightly, anticipating that I would have to carry my backpack throughout the trek. However, it turned out that our luggage was shuttled to the homestay, and we only needed to carry a small daypack.
Overall, it was a fantastic trip and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
