Amazing 5 day HCMC to Dalat to MuiNe tour with Du!
Absolutely amazing experience with Du.
I personally am very hard to deal with because I have had stomach problems all my life and this is the biggest concern I have before going on this tour. Finding a toilet is never something you can consistently do in the countryside while in a foreign country. But Our tour guide Du made sure to find me a toilet whenever I needed one and he made sure not to rush me as well. Du even went above and beyond to buy me medicine.
During the trip, Du is so experienced and well prepared he knows exactly what we needed before we asked him. For example, as soon as we bought something, he had already untied our luggage and was moving stuff around to make room for the newly purchased items.
Du took care of us very well. We sometimes would ask Du where to buy this where to buy that, Du would make sure we stopped by a local shop to get them at a cheaper price. We got so much tea, coffee, nuts, and fruits along the way, we definitely wouldn’t have been able to get them good and cheap by ourselves.
The riding experience is also very good, Du would make sure we were able to follow him easily with a lot of hand signals, he never once lost us. Making us feel extremely safe.
In terms of food, Du also made sure to ask if there is anything we don’t eat, very experienced. We would also request to try different types of food and Du was able to accommodate that with ease. We were able to try so many Vietnamese foods with Du.
Most importantly, Du was also able to stop at all the right spots for pictures and views. We never once thought “oh it would be nice if we could stop here and take a picture”, no that never happened. We stopped at all the spots with crazy views. I literally took 2000 pics on this tour.
Du also went the extra mile to make sure we got back to HCMC safely for our flight home. Even tho the tour has finished, he helped us book the sleeper bus tickets and hand wrote a note for us to give the bus driver to make sure we weren’t lost. Because you know, communication in Vietnam can be difficult at times. And Du even thought of that. 10/10 would recommend.
During the trip, we would ask Du personal questions to get to know Vietnameses’ way of life. Du would never be hesitant to tell us. Du even showed us pictures of his family, it was incredibly lovely. He also told us about his time during COVID-19. And that’s exactly why we said our goodbyes to Du, we felt very much like saying goodbye to a friend, instead of a tour guide.
I have never had this feeling before, this is the best experience I have ever had while traveling on tour.

Wow! Amazing!
Will definitely do it again! I did the 4 day Saigon to Dalat tour with Baron – I couldn’t be happier! I’d never been to Vietnam, I’m a fairly new rider, and my trip was a spur of the moment decision. Everything went perfectly, Baron talked with me about the type of riding I’d like to do and the sights I’d like to see and put together an amazing solo trip for me! He thought of everything and took every precaution to make sure that I had the time of my life.
When I told people what I had planned they advised me that many of the tour companies in Vietnam were either scams, or unprofessional or even dangerous (including some of the bigger motorcycle tour guides). Motorbiketripvietnam and Baron are the best guide available, and I plan on going back next year for a longer trip.

I did the four days tour in a group with four participants and four guides. Best group ever! It was definitely the highlight of my entire trip. We saw the most breathtaking spots, ate the strangest and best food, became all friends and learned so much about this beautiful country from our amazing guides. The drove us absolutely safe to every place and took care of us all the time! This tour was so amazing, that I even regretted that I did it: Because when we had to say goodbye and even the days after it I was so unbelievable sad that its over.
Thank you all guys, you are amazing!

My girlfriend and I had an amazing three day trip from Saigon to Dalat, together with Leo and Khoi. Those guys are amazing! We had some really nice stops from Saigon to Cat Tien national park. Afterwards we had a 2 night stop in the national park itself. Leo and Khoi took us on a walk trough the jungle upto the crocodile lake where we had lunch. The day after we continued our journey to Dalat. With again some nice stops. It’s so cool to travel with them, because they let you taste the real ‘local’ Vietnam. I would absolutely recommend Leo and Khoi. They are: Flexible, Funny, exceptional good drivers, well prepared and equipped and the best guides you can imagine! P.S.: If Khoi suggests you to taste the ‘tiny local fruit’ please be aware that this might be pepper! 😉

I had read many reviews about the Easy Riders tour being the best part of their vacation. I had high hopes for our trip, and I can honestly say it was the best days of our vacation!
We took a 4-day ride from Saigon to Dalat with Linh and Vien. We loved the boys! They were fun and took good care of us.
But what we loved the most about the tour was that the stops we made were not orchestrated, it was authentic view of Vietnam – we made many random stops off the side of the street to see various plantations (passion fruit, cashew, cacao, black pepper, etc) and as well as livelihood (incent maker, drum maker, rice wine maker, coffee).
After spending a few days in Saigon doing group tours with tons of tourists everywhere, it was so refreshing to see the “real” Vietnam with no foreigners in sight (for the most part).
Easy Riders do tours all across the country – believe me, I wish I had skipped all the other expensive tours I had booked, and gone straight with Easy Riders. Don’t make the mistake I made. Book with Easy Riders to experience the best parts of Vietnam with great guides!
