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.

Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, is located at the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers. The city is known for its vibrant nightlife, historical sites, and delicious cuisine. The official currency used in Belgrade is the Serbian Dinar. The city offers a mix of architectural styles, from Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian to brutalist buildings, showcasing its rich history.
The best time to visit Belgrade is during the spring (April to June) and fall (September to October) when the weather is mild and pleasant. Summers can be hot and crowded, while winters can be cold and snowy. The city comes alive with festivals and events during the warmer months, offering a lively atmosphere for visitors.
Belgrade has a well-connected public transportation system, including buses, trams, and trolleybuses, making it easy to navigate the city. Taxis are also readily available, but it's important to use licensed taxi services to avoid scams. Walking and cycling are great ways to explore the city center, which is relatively compact and pedestrian-friendly.
When visiting Belgrade, be sure to try the local specialties such as cevapi (grilled minced meat), burek (flaky pastry filled with meat or cheese), and rakija (fruit brandy). Explore the city's vibrant nightlife by visiting the floating river clubs along the Sava river. Don't forget to visit Kalemegdan Fortress for panoramic views of the city and enjoy a leisurely stroll through the bohemian quarter of Skadarlija. Be prepared for some language barriers as English may not be widely spoken outside of tourist areas.
