    Our first few days in Vietnam were off to a great start! The limousine ride from Hanoi was peachy smooth and we arrived to the enchanting Sapa with the warmest welcome.

      I have lived in Vietnam 22 years and granted, it does have some lovely places where you can see a nice view and scenery, but that is usually a definite spot. Most of the country is trash-ridden, dirty, dusty, noisy, dangerous, unsanitary with many shady, untrustworthy people. It is not a glamorous, heaven-on-Earth place. Few Vietnam videos tell you that you need vaccines against typhoid, hepatitis, and to be careful around many people who have tuberculosis and other diseases. Dengue fever can be caught anywhere and many tourists are ill after 2-3 days in country due to bacteria in food and on utensils. There is also chikungunya . You also need insurance (or cash) that covers you in Vietnam and pays IMMEDIATELY! No payment, no treatment at hospitals. Tourists are ripped-off most everywhere on prices. Must have Vietnam drivers license and motobike insurance to drive a motorbike. Don't trust anyone. Chain your money to yourself. Theft everywhere. FYI

      We actually walked around 95% of the time! Most of the accommodations are quite close to the town center so whether it was to grab food to went to Sapa station to get up to Fansipan, we walked no more than about 15 or so minutes. There are taxis everywhere if you didn’t want to walk!

    In August we are going to visit Sapa. This is the third visit in Vietnam. We had been longing for visiting Sapa but the covid thing happened. We waited for three years. Your video made me happy and made me want to visit there as soon as we can. What is the distance from Sapa to Lao cai village? How long did it take to get there by bike? When did you shoot your video? Sorry for asking you so many questions?

    • @LaurenJason
      @LaurenJason  11 місяців тому +1

      We’re so glad you enjoyed the video! We’re happy to answer any questions. It took about 15 minutes by motorbike to reach the village but we asked the driver to drop us off further from the village so we can enjoy the scenery as we walked down. We went in march! As it was dryer season you can the rice fields are a bit brown rather than a vibrant green.

      We went at the start of March! In December it’s the coldest month so make sure to pack warm clothes. It’s also quite foggy/misty so beware of the conditions if you’re planning on visiting Fansipan mountain. But the good news since it’s very low season prices are much lower and significantly less touristy!

    Nice area, but Sapa itself is not that great. Every 20 meter the offered goods repeat, many western tourists and pretty much trash laying around. Take care that you don't get scammed, eg. The price for a pack of tea ( they all sell the same stuff) was between 25 000 to 100 000 VD around 1-4$.
    Try the chestnut cakes, they taste great and you'll find em on every corner.
    Most "handcrafted" stuff repeats too and comes from china.
    The nature is really nice and should be the true reason to visit this region. Sapa is more like a basecamp from where you start your trips.
