Unforgettable experience hiking up Ta Xua with our wonderful guide Nghia.
Our group of 11 had an unforgettable 2D1N hiking experience up Ta Xua, and we were lucky to enjoy breathtaking views on both days.

From start to finish, communication with Nghia was seamless. She was incredibly responsive prior to the trek and went out of her way to accommodate us. She was so sweet and welcoming, and made us feel safe and well-cared for throughout the hike. Nghia’s knowledge of the area and Vietnam’s rich culture truly enriched our journey and we learned so much from her. We really enjoyed conversing with her during our journey!

The homestay was absolutely charming. It was so cozy, comfortable, and the perfect place to rest before and after our hike.

The hut that we stayed at atop the mountain has a beautiful view of the scenery. Though cold, we still had a long, comfortable sleep with mattresses and thick weighted blankets provided for us.

The food they prepared was scrumptious, and they made sure we were always well-fed with delicious, home-cooked meals.

A delightful bonus were the playful dogs at both the homestay and along the trail. They added a fun, lighthearted touch to the experience and were an unexpected joy.

This trip exceeded all expectations, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable, immersive, and well-organised adventure.

Great Trip to Taxua!
Solo traveler. Great communication with Nghai prior to the trip to Taxua as this place is still quite an untapped part of Vietnam. The transport and accommodation are well organized and I had a lovely time in Zonihomes. For the trekking trip in Taxua, Lan was a good mountain guide and I was blessed with great weather to see the best of Taxua. Indeed it was a worthy trip and everyone coming here should connect with Zoni trip. Perhaps the next round I should try the other peak of Ta Chu Ni.

A must visit for the adventure seekers!
We spent 2 days trekking up to Ta Xua peak, and the experience was impeccable thanks to our guides Nghia and Lang. They were knowledgeable and experienced, and ensured that we were safe throughout the trek. Nghia is a warm guide who was always ready to share about Vietnamese culture and sightings along our trek. Lang too, was a caring porter who guided us through the difficult parts of the trek, especially the dinosaur spine, which can be challenging for first time climbers. Not to mention, the captivating mountain landscape made the moderately difficult trek worthwhile! Highly recommend this trekking tour with Zonitrip for the adventure seekers.

A Hidden Gem Among the Clouds
My wife and I chose Ta Xua and Ta Chi Nhu mountains for our honeymoon, and it turned out to be the highlight of our trip.

Experience: The hikes were brilliantly organized by knowledgeable and professional guides who made every step informative and magical. Both mountains offered unique experiences – Ta Xua with its surreal cloud hunting, and Ta Chi Nhu with its rugged beauty.

Overall: These trails are not typical tourist spots, giving you an authentic feel of adventure. It was romantic, secluded, and perfectly executed. For everyone wanting something truly special, these mountains won’t disappoint. A must-visit for an unforgettable experience.

Đỉnh Tà Xùa
What started as a recommendation from a fellow traveller at our hostel in Thailand turned into the best hiking experience we’ve ever had 2 weeks later.

ZoniTrip was very helpful and organised everything on our behalf – All we had to do was turn up!

We (2 pax) opted for the 2D1N guided hike. Although exhausting to reach the peak within 1 day, it would be unnecessary to have any longer. The porter spoke no English but we made do with Google translate, which in my opinion made the experience more wholesome. Special mention needs to be made to the dinner and breakfast that was cooked for us at the campsite – delicious!

Off the mountain we stayed at Zoni Home. What a lovely family, so helpful and kind. This homestay has stunning views of the countryside and a real ‘homey’ feel. The owner is highly responsive and addressed all our questions and needs almost instantly.

Highly recommend!
