thoughtfully

I design all of own itineraries, carefully and hard work for each new route. I constantly review my tours to ensure that we offer the best of my experience for cycle. My cycling tour is one of very few cycle tour in Vietnam. If you search in the Internet you will see my itineraries, store, photos appear on some other Vietnamese websites.

 I have been working with some oversea cycling tour in USA, Australia, Europe... But I don’t agreement for Vietnamese travel agent resell my itineraries and bike component, cloth, accessories, bike part, bike hire... That mean they stolen my photos and information. Imitate and steal ideal are a part of life in Vietnam but please be careful with this.

Thank

Joe

TRIP HIGHLIGHTS

This extreme 8 day trip takes you to the very heart of the north Vietnam mountain . You will discover some of the finest cycling the world has to offer. Beginning in  Hanoi , we will cycle and climb five major passes from 1,500m to 2,000m.

We are supported by a sturdy transit van, which is perfectly equipped for the terrain but not an entirely comfortable passenger vehicle and participants should sign up expecting to ride as much of the tour as they can.

Grading: This trip is REAL mountain bike for every cyclist who love mountain biking, off road, single track .
