No. Choose the Easy Rider option and you will travel as a passenger with an experienced local rider. You can enjoy the scenery without controlling the motorcycle yourself.
An Easy Rider is an experienced local motorcyclist who drives the bike while you travel behind as the passenger. Your rider also helps guide you through the route and local stops.
Easy Rider is recommended for most visitors, particularly those without extensive experience riding on mountain roads.
Hiring a bike is only suitable for confident and appropriately licensed riders who understand the additional responsibility and risk.
Self-riders are responsible for carrying a valid motorcycle licence and the correct international driving permit recognised in Vietnam.
You should also confirm that your travel insurance covers riding the type and size of motorcycle you intend to use.
The loop includes steep roads, sharp bends, changing surfaces and unpredictable weather. No mountain journey is completely without risk.
Travelling with an experienced Easy Rider who knows the route is the safest and most relaxed option for most guests.
