Motorbike roadtrip Vietnam stage 1

Get out of Ho Chi Minh to the Cu Chi Tunnels!

I had never ride a real motor bike before. So my Kiwi friend Ryan learned me the evening before we left Ho Chi Minh. We practiced how to shift the gears and make speed with the motor bike. After 20 minutes I was ready to make a little round on the road. I did this in the late evening so the road wasn’t that busy. (but still busy lol)

The next morning we prepared our bikes and route to go to the Cu Chi Tunnels. It was a hectic ride but we survived without any accidents.

  • Hiya myself and a friend are doing a 3 week trip from Ho chi min to Hanoi on motorbikes and just wondered what you found the best way to get a bike and what is the average price we will expect to pay? Any information will be greatly appreciated.

    • Hi Chris,

      Depends on what kind of bike but 250 US you can have a nice one. Best is to but from backpackers who have to sell. Check hostels for flyers of motorbikes and gumtree etc. And to the local shops :) Three weeks is short but you can make it. Make sure you rest enough and keep safe. Cheers!
