The agency was amazing. John (the manager) was really patient answering all our many Qs about Sapa, and Thuy was our wonderful local Sapa guide. I cannot recommend these guys... read more highly enough. They are safe, reliable, patient, knowledgeable and trustworthy. I was travelling with two other ladies, and we felt well looked after & safe every step of the way. If you're looking for an excellent & knowledgeable tour guide in Vietnam - look no further. This is it!

  We are a family with two kids ( 10 years old twins) and decided to explore Vietnam a little bit. Since we prefer to visit more places and to see... read more mainly country side, people and their habits we planned for visit of Mekong delta, Saigon, Dalat and its surrounding, Hanoi and of course Ha Long Bay. For local arrangement we made a deal with Sapa Sunshine Travel. Our experience with them was amazing - just to summarize in one word. Their drivers were always on time at agreed place, their guides were fluent in English, knowledgeable, decent and helpful. We got so much of additional info thanks to them. Whole arrangement was done in very professional way, respecting our needs.
We did such trips before to other countries so we can really compare. Sapa Sunshine did great job and we can only recommend their services.

  We had a great service from John at Sunshine Sapa Travel. Everything was organised and our trip to Sapa ran like clockwork. John even took us to our cabin on... read more the train. Our guide in Sapa was awesome - really made the trip for us.

  good weather and nice view of rice field ladder which you can enjoying walking along the village all day. you have to be there

  The trip started with pick ip from our hotel - on time, comfortable van. The overnight train ride was OK (expected to be bumpy and noisy - probably an issue... read more if you’re a light sleeper), we had a 2-berth cabin, toilet was rather small.

Reached Lao Cai and driver was ready to drive us to Sapa. A little bit confusion over which hotel we’ll be staying at but it was all sorted out. Happy that the hotel provided breakfast even we have not checked in (we arrived early morning), luggage storage was available and there were clean shower rooms with towels provided.

Left the luggage at the hotel, showered and we were off to the Day 1 trekking. Nice, friendly English-speaking guide - named Mims. Easy/ low elevation trekking, beautiful padi-terraces scenery. The rice we just about to be harvested, it was perfect timing. Day 2 trekking was a little bit harder with steps to get to the two waterfalls. At the end of day 2 we were back at the hotel, showered, picked up the luggage and were sent to the train station to get back to Hanoi.

Overall a superb experience! Than you Mr John and all the guide/drivers

  Everything was organized and timely. From the pick up at the airport, to the time we were dropped off a week later, our trip was excellent. I highly... read more recommend the company.

  Well organised and great Guide..... Overnight train was an experience and glad I paid the extra money for the VIP cabin. Unfortunately when we arrived at the hotel there was... read more no room available for us which was a bit disappointing as we had been on the train all night without a shower. But overall a great trip

  Thanks thanks thanks to Sapa sunshine. As a solo traveler it was damn near impossible to book a tour especially under the short time constraints. But thanks to... read more Sapa Sunshine they arranged everything! I just needed to show up. Because of them i got to see the bridge in the Village of Tavan! Thanks again John!

  When we travel we usually do it all ourselves. When I started to plan I noticed that John from Sapa Sunshine was very generous on the Vietnam forum on... read more TA answering questions and giving suggestions to I contacted him about our trip. I told him when we were coming, generally what our interests were, our physical limitations (nothing serious, just some wonky old age stuff) and said we wanted to see as much of Vietnam as we could.
John came back with an itinerary that was more thorough and interesting than anything we could have done ourselves. We saw Hanoi, Halong Bay, Sapa, Nam Dinh, Hue, Hoi An and Ho Chi Min City. We were always met at the airport/train station by a guide and checked into our hotel. Our guides, set up by John, were excellent. We were checked in to our hotels and never for a moment did we wonder if our guide or driver would show up when expected. They were always on time.
We travelled 3* hotel and all of them were wonderful. (arranged by SST). All were easily accessible to town and in most cases in town. Our reservations were always correct and although we did live out of suitcases travel was eays.
I honestly cannot say enough good about Sapa Sunshine Travel and John. When we left a piece of equipment in a vehicle in one city he managed to get it delivered to us before we left the country. We thought it was gone.
We had a few questions and slight changes to make while we were travelling and a quick email to John had things arranged for us (we got a day hotel room in Hanoi after the night on the train, before we headed to the airport).
If you are going to Vietnam, talk to John at Sapa Sunshine Travel. Your trip will be better arranged than you can imagine - your personal interests will be covered (we did lots of food tours), and the price will be reasonable - worth every penny.

  We spent 3 days exploring beauty of Sapa in November.
Sapa is a lovely and fascinating place to visit. We had an amazing time on our Sapa trek... read more with a great local guide. Fansipan Mountain, Love Waterfall, homestay, trekking, terraced rice fields, the breathtaking view are totally worth seeing.
We booked our trip with Sapa Sunshine Travel. Thanks Sapa Sunshine Travel team for a great trip! If you are planning to go Sapa, I highly recommend them.
