Brrrrr!!
Hi. Thanks Tommy.
I'm not sure if I'm too late? Sapa is great, a must-do but I'm not sure it's the ideal time. It's definitely winter here (24 degress) and will get colder as you head north.
Then again, you're English! Tough as old boots maybe? lol
On the other hand, it will be warmer, much warmer as you head south.
The trip from Hanoi via Halong starts ok ish but gets better and better.
From Hue to Hoi An via the Hai Van pass is unforgettable. I actually turned around and did it again.
I suppose it depends on whether it is 'the ride' or 'the culture' that you desire.
If it's the ride, I suggest the big loop but again the weather will not be as friendly as the people you'll meet.
