Was a great walk down the hill and loved the waterfall at the bottom. I decided to get a motorbike back to town, lots of fun. More

All of Sapa, but specifically Cat Cat Village, allows you to shed all that you think is important and appreciate all that is simply and pleasing and peaceful. More

We didn't enjoy Cat Cat Village at all. At least the part we saw. To begin with, it is completely full of shops! They are all selling local handcrafted bags, wall hangings etc..the same things you'll have already seen all over Sa Pa village. "You buy something from me?"...that is the only conversation you'll get from the locals in that... More

Great to see people & things there. But the village is a bit touristy. You should buy some candies to give the kids there. They will ask for it alot. If you haven't been there you should visit it. More

The village is an easy, pleasant, mainly downhill walk from Sapa, less than 30 minutes, with some steep steps. Stalls along the way, sell usual knick knacks that one can get anywhere in Vietnam. We did the "stream trek" behind the waterfall as well. The view here is not as nice as the Lao Chai/Ta Phin trek, but still pretty... More

It was nice hike first deep downhill and back going up the hill. Village itself wasn't far but we decided to go futher. So "at the end" (near the bridge where ethnic preformaces can be seen) goes small track futher down along the river. It was about 0,5 h and about 0,5 h back. Nice walk. You do not need... More
