ETHOS began as an INGO, providing vocational training for ethnic minority children in Sapa District at the turn of the century.
Driven by compassion, we morphed and grew into a socially responsible company. We now provide experiential tours for conscientious travellers seeking authentic cultural exchanges. Our aim is to provide exceptional community based tourism opportunities which in turn fund an expansive range of social development projects.
ETHOS experiences focus strongly around the rich cultural diversity of Northern Vietnam. We avoid mere sightseeing tours in favour of deeper cultural exchanges and interactions between travellers and local people.
