13.Sapa Night Market Experience – BBQ, Hotpot & Black Chicken

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 4 reviews · 2 hours · from $10Best value

Spend two hours in Sapa with an English-speaking local guide such as Chinh, visiting the night market and choosing what to eat. Try charcoal BBQ with mountain herbs, shared hotpot, or H’mong black chicken. Food costs extra, so you control the bill. Private groups, hotel pickup details, and a 500ml bottle of water are included.

“We really enjoyed the trip. Advantages: - The guide was very friendly, communicative and his English was really good. - It's a great opportunity to talk to a local about life in Vietnam, learn about living conditions, customs and history. - It feels safer to be in the market with a guide. He communicated with the sellers and enabled us to try out and buy lots of things. Without him, we would have felt a bit more uncertain. Disadvantages: The night market in SaPa itself is not really that varied. Everyone sells the same things – once you've looked at the goods at one stall, you've pretty much seen everything.…”
