Motorbike Trip Vietnam

Motorbike trip Vietnam in mind? For four weeks my friend Rens from (Tallguytravelling) has been riding a motorbike through Vietnam. Crossing the country from Ho Chi Minh to Hanoi and the loop in the stunning Ha Giang region. His trip was 3748km of fun, adventure, a sore ass and incredible scenery! If you are ever planning to visit Vietnam make sure to travel (at least some parts) by motorbike.

I’ve spent the past 4 weeks on this motorbike, crossing Vietnam from south to north and beyond 🏢🛵⛰ The almost 4,000km have been adventurous, tiring, painful, but by far: unforgettable. Vietnam has surprised me so much! I’m still buzzing from this trip and I probably will for a while…😊 Now work on the video! . . . #tallguytravelling #vietnam #vietnambybike #detechwin #motorbike #adventure #roadtrip #amazing #travelawesome #instatravel #travelasia #hagiang #hagiangloop #hanoi #travelbybike #discover #nature #travel

Limestone mountains covered in clouds, the smell of wet forest and total silence… ⛰☁️🌳 The beauty of Vietnams nature really surprised me. After a wet and curvey ride following the Ho Chi Minh trail through the mountains I reached a point where I could look out over Phong Nha National Park #jawdropping . . . #tallguytravelling #vietnam #motorbike #motorbikevietnam #vietnambybike #nature #naturebeauty #scenic #earth #planet #vietnamnature #discoverearth #amazingplanet #travel #travelawesome #hochiminhtrail #forest

Motorbike Ha Giang region Vietnam

More motorbike loops: in Laos we rode the Pakse Loop over the Bolaven Plateau and the Thakhek Loop to Kong Lor Cave, both with a free GPX download.

    Hoi hoi ik zag net je mooie motorbike tour. Klopt het dat je de motor had gehuurd? En waar heb je hem gehuurd? En hoe ging het je af ? Ik wil ook graag een motor huren in sept maar ik twijfel nog omdat je niet verzekerd bent. Ik hoor het graag van je

      Hi Patricia, ik zelf heb hem gekocht. Je bent dan idd niet verzekerd. Deze video is gemaakt door Rens, hij heeft de motor gehuurd.
      Ik hoor veel goede verhalen over het huren van een motorbike, mocht je een rijbewijs hebben lijkt mij een verzekering geen probleem maar neem gewoon even contact op 🙂

      Lijkt het je niks om zelf te rijden kun je altijd nog even naar de Easyriders in Vietnam

      Have fun met jouw Motorbike Trip in Vietnam!
