Tour Description

Vietnam motorcycle tour

Vietnam is a country of fascinating contrasts, ranging from remote, lofty mountains to busy coastal fishing towns, past deserts, jungles and endless rice fields. This spectacular drive begins near the Chinese border on top of the county’s highest mountains, where some of the most fantastic rice terracing occurs, and passes through remote communities of hill tribe people unfamiliar with the outside world. As you head further southwards, besides enjoying incredible driving, deep in the Vietnamese countryside, you’ll have time to take in the former imperial capital of Hue, the ancient trading town of Hoi An, the World Heritage-listed Phong Nha Cave and Khe Bang National Park, the Khe Sanh battle site, the Vinh Moc Tunnels, Red Beach, Vietnamese war museums and the DMZ. This ride is the best of both worlds!
