MR. JOHN MEEHAN’S REVIEWS OF NORTH-WEST VIETNAM MOTORCYCLE TOUR

(John Meehan reviews of a 10-day Honda XR250 250cc dirt bike adventure in Vietnam, covering approximately 1,300 km)

It seems like the best pictures of Vietnam: country, people, culture were chosen + the tour built around that.

A faster + more reliable bike for the guide is well worth considering as soon as profitability allows.

Tempo of the tour and the stop-over

Pretty much stop-over. Very good.

Bikes and equipment

The XR250 is perfect for this tour.

Accommodation

Very good mix + quality. The homestays have been well chosen + add a lot of authenticity to the trips. In some places, the mattresses are too hard (firm) for us soft westerners.

Food

Always very good to excellent, especially some of the homestays. In one or two occasions it may have been westernised too much e.g. French fries. I preferred the more local approach.

Guide and organisation

Excellent. Shows a lot of planning has gone into this. Quynh was very understanding of our Aussie foibles + happy to go exploring unknown tracks with us. These are some of the best memories.

Price

Good value. The all inclusive packaging (excluding alcohol + water) is a good approach. Keeps it simple.
