What travellers say
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.
