Vietnam Bike Tours

North Vietnam Motorbike Tours




We are Philip and Paul from England and we took a 6 day tour with Knock ( Lotussia Travel ) in October 2010.  We are currently taking a year to travel around the world and we decided that the best way to see Vietnam was on a motorbike, and as we only had a limited time in Vietnam before moving on we only gave ourselves a few days to organise a tour.  We were so lucky that Knock was available a couple of days after we made our initial request as he turned out to be a really great guide.  He speaks really good English (and French), he has the perfect temperament for a guide and he is also a very good rider.




Within the two days Knock had everything arranged and we got underway.   We took the North West loop from Hanoi to Sapa and back which included 2 nights homestay and 3 nights hotel all of which were clean and comfortable.  As to the food, we let Knock do the ordering and we were never disappointed, although I'm still not too keen on fried crickets!




A point to mention is that Paul had never ridden a motorbike before so was naturally apprehensive about the tour. However, we met with Knock a couple of days before the tour and he did a great job to alleviate the apprehension and he let Paul have a motorbike the following day to get used to it before we started.  By the end of the experience Paul was even confidently able to ride through Hanoi!




Although we weren't always lucky with the weather over the 6 days it didn't take anything away from the overall experience as it really was about the journey.  We did see some beautiful scenery and we rode on some really nice mountain roads and saw places that so many tourists just wouldn't normally get to see.  We also had a mechanic with us at all times so any issues with bikes were dealt with immediate and we didn't lose any time.




In summary; this was a terrific journey, well organised and we believe the best way to see Vietnam.  We can't thank Knock enough for making this such a great experience.
