Join us on this incredible ten-day adventure through Northern Vietnam.
Spend five-days trekking in lush rainforests, through villages in the mountains and enjoying homestays with the local community. Travel to the depths of the valley, following winding streams and hike up steep rises to admire magnificent views from the mountain tops. Learn about the locals who live traditional lives in these forests and have the rare experience of sharing time with them in their villages. Bask in the tranquillity of being fully immersed in nature while challenging yourself to trek each day.
Explore the fascinating city of Hanoi; winding through the bustling streets lined with markets. Wander around historic temples filled with stories of times gone by. Ask questions of your local guides and get to know the true history, culture and wonders of Vietnam with them. Be inspired by the museums of the city, especially the Vietnam Women’s Museum - sharing the lives and roles of the women of this country. You’ll also sample plenty of local delicacies and eat typical dishes such as pho during an authentic street food tour on your last day in Vietnam.
We know travel is better when you can give back as much as you get. That’s why we have designed our trips around contributing, supporting and participating in local projects and community initiatives that have a positive social and environmental impact.
Each of our tours provide a unique way to get up close and personal with the destination and incorporates a fundraising target or donation into the travel costs, which enables travellers to connect, give back and travel with purpose.
If you are a charity, corporate or a private group interested in trekking Sapa Valley please get in touch.

Bonney Moloney, Oxfam's Trek to Tackle Poverty 2019
Thanks Soulful Concepts for a great adventure, I enjoyed seeing where the money we raised went and visiting the local people and seeing how they lived in the country villages. They took the stress out of organising transport, meals and accommodation. The caring nature of the tour group meant we all got along, supported each other and we had plenty of laughs. I would totally recommend these tours to others.
Claudia Mah, Oxfam's Trek to Tackle Poverty, 2019
For me, the trip ticked so many boxes – the soul, my humility and of course the challenge of the trek itself. The trip was left raw for a true experience, whilst accompanied by warm and friendly troop especially the guides.
Barry Parsons, Oxfam's Trek to Tackle Poverty 2019
It was a great experience and honour to raise funds for these worthy Oxfam projects and experience their effect in the commune, then trek in the nearby Sapa valley. I can’t recommend it highly enough!
