Northwest Vietnam Loop Tour Map
Hai and his team guided us on a 12 day, 3000 km motorbike tour from Hanoi towards Ho Chi Minh. Hai planned the trip perfectly, with interesting visits each day and challenging riding through a variety of scenery and terrain. He taught us a lot about Vietnam.Each day went very smoothly with excellent food and scenic coffee breaks for an unforgettable experience.
Fantastic 12 day motorcycle tour of NW Vietnam off road thru the mountains and then down the history trail following the Ho Chi Min trail. Hai our leader and Long our mechanic were just the best. I cannot think of a better way to see Vietnam and with Hai’s 20 years of experience and knowledge you will see things not only tourists but most Vietnamese gone get to see. This is my third adventure with WeRideVietnam and I will be back!
Trip went off without a hitch, Hai and his team were very organized, excellent support with a mechanic and support vehicle to take our luggage and any souvenirs we bought from local markets. We enjoyed great Vietnamese cuisine, very good standards of accommodation, excellent riding of all types.
Scenery was amazing. Bikes were off good mechanical condition. I would definitely recommend WeRideVietnam
