Overview
VIETNAM MOTORBIKE TOURS ITINERARIES
On this page, you will find Vietnam motorbike tours itineraries by Golden Trail Travel that customers completed. The name is the tour code and if you want to do the same itinerary please include this in your request. Currently, some are old or outdated but most are still very good. The names of places may change and actual distance (in km) can be shorter or longer due to new roads. The guide will be the boss of a tour and he will discuss with you which road to take, based on road and weather conditions at the time.
Most of these motorbike tours were designed for both experienced and non-experienced riders. The best motorbikes for these trips are dirt bikes or off-road motorcycles from 125cc to 250cc. We suggest having people with similar riding skills in each group so nobody holds the other riders back.
NORTH-EAST VIETNAM LOOP
Northeast Vietnam used to be an important area during the war (with the French army). Currently, it’s changing fast and becomes a beautiful region, full of legends, colourful hill tribe groups, and also major trade points with China. In reality, the road is small, windy, and snakes in the mountains. No matter which end of the trip you start from. First is on flat easy road or highway, then head up a mountain range and ride the mountain roads a few days before you find the flat road back to Hanoi again.
