Welcome all adventurers! Coming in February to June is the best month if scheduling to move to the Rattan Suspension Bridge in Sapa. It comes when the weather has turned so enticingly cool, and the natural beauty is also at its best. The rice terraces in full rich greens will announce an ideal backdrop for your Sapa Tours. But always check the weather forecast first. Sapa weather is famously terrible so be ready for a sudden change, mostly if you are visiting there early in spring or late autumn.
As your enthusiastic guide, let me give you some wardrobe advice! Sapa’s weather can be quite chilly, especially in the mornings and evenings, so pack layers. A light jacket or fleece will keep you warm. Comfortable walking shoes are a must, as we will be trekking through villages and natural landscapes. Don’t forget a raincoat or waterproof jacket just in case the weather decides to surprise us. Moreover do not forget to protect yourself from sunburn with a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen. And, of course, a fully charged camera or smartphone for taking the most stunning pictures when you cross the Flange Mountain to the purely Sapa view from the Rattan Suspension Bridge in SaPa!
Rattan Suspension Bridge
As much as possible, we prioritize safety on our excursions. The Rattan Suspension Bridge in Sapa requires you to walk slowly across, holding the ropes on either side for support. Wooden planks with a space of about 20 cm urge you to step with caution. If you open your heart easily looking at long falls down, do not look down. If the bridge is wet and you see the bridge deck leather brand on the wooden log, be extra careful; otherwise, it can be very slippery. And most importantly, follow our guide’s instructions; never stuff any of the bridges with too many people. Remember, it’s not just a walk, it’s an adventure that joins together excitement and the beauty of nature, one of the highlights of our Sapa Tours.
Local customs and traditions must be respected as we nourish ourselves with the rich cultural background in Sapa. Do ask for permission first before clicking pictures of local people while you visit any village. This act symbolizes appreciation and respect for the host who willingly shows you their hospitality. Dress appropriately respecting local customs, especially in villages. Knowing a few main local language phrases – “hello" (Xin chào) and “thank you" (cảm ơn) are key: can put cracks in the ice. Remember, the place is their home, and respect will heighten the experience for anyone and increase goodwill.
