Pro’s: - prompt pick up our hotel. - clean and safe vehicle, and well driven. Con’s: - Tour guide clearly had no idea of the strict rules in place at some of the venues e.g. that we could take photos outside of Ho Chi Minh’s mausoleum. Told off by soldiers/guards multiple times. This shows a lack of understanding the rules and etiquette for someone who should be experienced. - Excuses were made when challenged. - Kept wandering off to get cash out. - Grasp of English limited and difficult to understand. Hard to engage and answer questions. - Trip seemed to finish very early (3hours), not really a half day tour.

A day of riding the two most famous mountains around Da Nang. We’ll follow the Cam Le river out of the City into open countryside and pass by huge, colourful cemeteries and temples. From there, we’ll visit Hill 55 Sniper Training School from the wartime. Next, we’ll ride over the Hai Van Pass, with plenty of photo stops as we go. After that is a ride around the beautiful Lang Co Lagoon before heading back over Hai Van Pass. We’ll enjoy a local lunch in Danang before making our way to Monkey Mountain. On Monkey Mountain we’ll find amazing roads with spectacular views at up to 700 m. Here there’s a good chance to see the rare breeds of langur monkeys if we’re lucky. After that, it’s back to base for a cold beer!

We had a couple of business partners in Vietnam to evaluate launching F1 Vietnam activities and so we decided to check out a motorcycle adventure with Jeff and his team to Phong Nha. These guys are true professional and riding on the Himalayan is the absolute best experience one can have motorcycling in Vietnam. We also run a motorcycle company called Onetrip and we still recommend Onyabike for these once in a lifetime experiences. Don’t take my words for it, go ride.

Da Nang is a coastal city with a 60-km long shoreline. With smooth and sandy beaches running across the coast, Da Nang beach is voted by Forbes (U.S.) to be 1 of 6 most beautiful beaches in the world. Not only is the city famous for its beaches, Da Nang’s charm also lays in its geographical position: leaning against the majestic Truong Son mountains (or the Annamite Range), as well as having Son Tra Peninsula embracing the sea. Hai Van Pass, shaped by this ideal geographical feature is praised ‘The most marvelous scenery of all’ for having an amazing view overlooking the sea, besides the notorious dangerous curves. At the same time Da Nang has a lot of museum to save valuable items from ancient century which you should consider in your trip.

Contacted the night before by email and message at front desk of hotel to confirm times & pick up.Picked up from our hotel at the time stated relatively new mini bus with air conditioning. Bus held 12 only 6 on tour. Cold water provided. Scenic drive out to My Son with the guide pointing relevant points of interest as we drove to site (about 90 mins). The site was empty on our arrival (just before Covid 19 hit a number of countries had already stopped their nationals travelling). The site is small but worth seeing. We had to take an electric bus up to the site from the car park I would have preferred to walk as it was less than a mile.The guide was very informative and answered any questions brought up by the group. We had nearly 2 hours walking around and then back on the bus to Hoi An. We asked to be dropped in the Old town not at our hotel which the driver and guide facilitated. We had considered renting a scooter and making our own way there but it is quite a considerable distance, the weather very hot, traffic intimidating and roads are not always hard surfaced. Worth the money

A fantastic day - we were picked up from our place of choice in the city and driven to beautiful sights in Hue. Whilst on the journey, our driver (Mr Dzung) was really informative about the city and its history. He was great for the entire day! He waited whilst we took our time exploring each place, giving us facts about the places we saw. He also accommodated us and took us to a specific street food place we wanted and a cake shop when we wanted sweets.
