the ride


A motorbike adventure is an excellent means of exploring frontier regions that few foreigners have ever been to before, allowing you a unique, face to the wind experience in Vietnam or Laos.

This part of the world is special because of an enormous network of roads, tracks and trails that are interlaced over a region remarkable for its spectacular mountains, deep valley floors, dramatic karst limestone rock formations and vast distant rice fields, not to mention the truly special experience of coming into contact with hill tribe people who are genuinely surprised and joyful to hang out with passing bikers. Take advantage of our enormous knowledge of the open ended routes available, and enjoy an adventure that is unique and flexible.

We offer rides all over the northern mountains of Vietnam, down the Ho Chi Minh Trail in Vietnam, and we can even make cross border trips into Laos. And for those with true grit, skills and determination, we are the only operator in the world offering dirt bike rides through the jungle in Laos, following what's left of the original Ho Chi Minh Trail.

If there are at least two of you then tell us how long you want to ride and when, and we will make recommendations appropriate to your riding experience and aspirations. Once confirmed, we will put your dates onto the list below. Otherwise, feel free to join one of the following rides.
