We have put together a few handy to know things about the north and what to expect on your private tour.

What to bring

We recommend you to have some comfortable foot ware that is suitable for trekking. You can buy trekking shoes in Vietnam if you are “travelling light”. Other items to take would be sunblock for the summer months, mosquito repellant and suitable clothing for the time of year that you book. Please check the tour details as you will find the information for the average monthly temperatures, hours of sunshine and rainfall there to help you plan your adventure.

Insurance Cover

You are responsible for your own insurance. We are just simple people from the mountains. Make sure that is covered if that is a concern for you, especially if you have health issues.

Accommodation

For the most part we stay at homestays. Depending on which one we are at and the level of remoteness dictates the facilities available. You can read more about the different types of homestay and their facilities here.
