It is your second and the last day in Sapa before you head out to Hanoi. Sapa is the home of many tribes and it is your chance to see the small hamlets where they live. You can rent a car or take a ride in a motor cycle, it’s your choice. Remember, it is more comfortable in a car, but the mountain roads are not always suitable for travelling in a car, especially in the small villages. Your guide will take you to off-the-beaten path of the small villages where mountains hug the little hamlets. You will often find that the streams from the mountains are flowing on the rocks like a dancing little girl. Terrace rice fields look like the canvas of beautiful paintings on the mountain slope. Occasionally, you may see some Black Hmong or Red Dzao tribe woman coming out of a village. Stop in the market place to meet some of the local people. Your tour ends around noon time just when you are ready for the lunch. Your guide will drop you to the hotel after the lunch and you say good bye to Sapa. Relax and wait for the mini-van arranged by your tour company to take you back to Hanoi.
