Sapa Tour Packages

Sapa Holiday Packages

Sapa is a small hill station originally developed by the French in the year 1922. But today it is a major tourist center for its spectacular mountainous views with plunging valleys overlooking them.

Mists roll down often on the peaks but the local tribal community colors the atmosphere even on cloudy days. With the recent rise of commercialization, buildings are seemingly heightening in its numbers and that has considerably calibrated Sapa’s skyline.

But if you are planning for a Sapa tour, this article will let you know all the details for your trip.

How To Reach

By Road

Buses ply regularly from Hanoi in the early mornings or late evenings. It mostly takes a total time of 6 to 7 hours to reach Sapa.

Unlike trains, buses travel faster without any stops in Lao Cas. By a private car, it takes 5 hours to reach Sapa.

But motorbikes are quite of a risk if you have never ridden one as the wet paths are not suitable for motorcycles. You can hire xe om with a local driver to hang out in the town.

By Air

There is no such facility to fly to Sapa directly for the Sapa package as there are no direct air routes. So if you want to fly, you have to reach Hanoi airport. From there take a train or bus which will smoothly take you to Sapa.

By Train

There are many trains for tourists to Sapa. But they take much of your time for around 8 to 9 hours as it stops in Lao Cai. But it’s best to book tickets before long if you are traveling in the peak seasons.

So you will arrive at the Lao Cai railway station from where you may need to take shuttle buses to Sapa.

Best Time To Visit

The best time that you should choose for a Sapa tour package is in March or May and from between September to mid-December.

Around April till May, tribal people grow rice on the terraces. The view of the terraced fields looks mesmerizing from a distance. This time the weather remains dry.

But you are most likely to experience all the four major seasons during this time if you’re planning a Sapa tour. The mornings are cool as spring days and the evenings are cold.
