Got ticket at better price from Pelago. I would recommend to buy tkt till summit as the final climb thru stairs is steep. Better to buy full package, mono rail from Sun plaza, then Cable car to Fansipan and finally funnicular to the summit. I think it's a must visit when in Sapa.
Very easy to use and fuss free. I would suggest those who purchase to keep a soft copy/screenshot of the QR code because if there's no internet, cannot open Pelago app. Pelago will also send the softcopy via WhatsApp so just save it from there to your gallery or phone for easy reference. Other than that, no issues with the QR.
Booking via Pelago was easy and the affiliated tour company contacted me via WhatsApp to confirm the details of pickup and drop off. The Mangrove tour itself was nice along the river to see the mangrove forests and we spotted some snakes too. The guide was helpful and knowledgeable.

Banff is a picturesque town located in the Canadian Rockies in Alberta, Canada. It is surrounded by stunning mountain peaks, turquoise lakes, and dense forests. The official currency in Banff is the Canadian Dollar (CAD).
The best time to visit Banff is during the summer months from June to August when the weather is mild and the days are long. This is the peak tourist season, so expect larger crowds. However, if you prefer fewer crowds and don't mind colder temperatures, visiting in the shoulder seasons of spring (April to May) and fall (September to October) can be equally beautiful. Winter (November to March) is ideal for skiing and snowboarding enthusiasts.
Banff is a compact town that can easily be explored on foot. However, to explore the surrounding areas and attractions, it is recommended to rent a car. There are also shuttle services available for transportation to popular tourist spots. Banff National Park has an extensive network of hiking trails and biking paths for those who prefer outdoor activities.
Make sure to pack layers of clothing as the weather in Banff can change quickly. Don't forget to bring comfortable walking shoes for exploring the town and hiking trails. Purchase a National Park Pass to access all the attractions within Banff National Park. Be prepared for wildlife encounters and always maintain a safe distance. Try to visit popular attractions early in the morning or late in the afternoon to avoid crowds. Respect the natural environment and follow Leave No Trace principles.
