(15Th - 25Th April, 2025) 11 Day Motorcycle Adventure To Explore Full North Vietnam

Leaving behind the bustling streets of Hanoi, our motorbike adventure takes us on a northerly route, alongside the enchanting Hong Son Lake. As we ride, we are greeted by the captivating sight of tiny islands scattered amidst lush forests and towering limestone peaks, creating a picturesque scene. Continuing our journey towards the north, we traverse smooth roads, revealing even more charming landscapes along the way. Upon reaching Mai Chau in the afternoon, we have the chance to explore the city, immersing ourselves in its vibrant atmosphere before indulging in a delicious dinner. Afterwards, we are treated to an authentic Thai Dance show, experiencing the rich cultural heritage firsthand. As the night settles in, we find serenity in Thai stilt houses, where we rest and rejuvenate for the upcoming adventures.

Today, you'll experience the beauty and history of Vietnam. As you depart from Mai Chau, you'll traverse a scenic path along the Da River, passing by caves of archaeological significance, housing remarkable finds like stone axes and finely crafted stone artifacts. A local ferry ride will take you to the other side of the river, revealing breathtaking mountain ranges on your right and the tranquil river on your left. After a brief pit stop in Bac Yen for a quick meal, your adventure continues along the untamed riverbank as you head north. Your day culminates with a restful night in a cozy Phu Yen hotel, setting the stage for more exciting experiences to come.

When we finish eating our breakfast at a local restaurant nearby, we visit the local market, buy souvenirs, take pictures, and mix with the local ethnic minorities (Dzao, Flower H’mong, Nung, etc). Today, we will be testing (and sharpening) our riding skills as the roads that go through the mountain passes are challenging! Depending on the time, we may even manage to enjoy and relax in the hot springs of Thanh Ha. We’ll spend the night in a hotel.

Today we head over the Ma Pi Leng Pass, where we can be carried away by the magnificent landscape overlooking the Nho Que River. Then, we ride down to Meo Vac, and go past the high mountainous mythical regions of Ha Giang, before we reach Bao Lac, where we stop for the day. Bao Lac is considered a great ethnic crossroad where ethnic groups of all Northeast Vietnam meet. The Sunday market is a great meeting point for many ethnic groups from both sides of the borders. We’ll spend the night in a hotel.

This morning we will visit a village of Lo Lo people, a small ethnic group living high up on the mountain who have preserved their original culture, including their colorful, intricate traditional clothing and wooden stilt houses. Next, continue on towards Bản Giốc, riding through beautiful countryside before reaching the resort at Ban Gioc.

On the last day with Vietnam motorbike tours, we have to start earlier than other days for the long riding from Northeast Vietnam back to Hanoi. It will be challenging but what nature can offer to you on the way is worth every hour you spend on riding. We will reach Ha Noi before the rush hour, roughly 4 pm and finish the motorcycle tour in North Vietnam, specially tailored by the Vietnam Motorbike Tour team.
