This was one for the books! From funicular, to cable car ride to another funicular going ul to the summit was totally worth it! Sadly, it was raining when I went to Sunworld Fansipan but the overall experience was 10/10. I just hoped they will soon add the pass for funicular going down from the summit to the whole package.

great experience. its a must to visit this place while you are in Sapa. It can be a half or whole day activity depending on your preference.

An absolutely amazing attraction that you shouldn't miss when you're in Sapa. The hike to the top is approximately 800+ steps from the cable car station. I recommend the hike because there are many spots where you can stop to take pictures.

Easy to redeem. Fansipan is so elusive to visit without clouds. We unfortunately were able to see only a few things because of the fog but the cable car trip is an engineering marvel.

To at the "Roof of the Indochina" is such an exhilarating experience. Though, I would recommend to visit Fan Si Pan during clear weather to maximize your experience and truly marvel at view from at least 3100 above the ground. Though, the ice-cold weather also added fun and excitement to the whole experience.

The hotel accommodates early arrival. Even if they may not be able to accommodate early check-in, you can use their facilities and even leave your belongings while enjoying what Sa Pa has to offer. Our room was quite spacious, given the over-all size of the hotel. It is not pricey (king size with breakfast for 2) and comes with a decent array of good food for breakfast. Highly recommended!

A must do when in Sa Pa. The Cloud Dragon Skywalk will wrack your nerves if you're not fond of heights. But it is all worth it, once you conquer your fear. Marvel on the beauty of nature atop a glass bridge suspended above ground at least 3100 meters high. The Silver Waterfalls is not let-down, too. Build up your stamina though for climbing the seemingly never-ending staiway will really test your endurance. Our guide, Mr Chung was the plus factor. He was very engaging and has a vast knowledge not only of the local culture but of a lot things Vietnamese. Definitely, you'll get your money's worth.

The views were amazing. It was really cold so don’t forget to bring a jacket. Also the Pho was very delicious.
