3D4N - Sapa Village Homestay Trek

		Highlights
		Trek through valleys and remote mountain trails to visit real hill‑tribe villages (H’Mong, Tay, Red Dzao, Dzay…), stay overnight in authentic local homestays — offering deep insight into rural daily life and traditional culture. 
Hikes traverse terraced rice fields, lush valleys, bamboo forests, waterfalls — giving travellers striking mountain‑valley landscapes and a genuine nature immersion. 
With 3 days and 2 nights, the tour gives enough time to explore multiple villages, interact with different ethnic groups, and enjoy the slow rhythm of mountain life — more thoughtful and meaningful than quick‑visit tours.
