This was an amazing holiday, a trip of a lifetime, a real assault on the senses in every way. I have been very lucky and have travelled a lot and been to many different countries and experienced lots of different cultures and this has got to be the most fantastic holiday and experience of them all. I would highly highly recommend this trip.

This trip was excellent. Our guide was great, the accommodations were varied but all very good, the food was good too. We really enjoyed the riding, it was varied and through lovely countryside on quiet country roads and lanes. The riding through the cities and towns was a bit more challenging, but the traffic was very considerate and we were well guided through by our guide.The organisation, along with attendant bus and driver, and truck and mechanic, was outstanding. We were very grateful for the electric bikes, some of which were better than others. Felt we had a very good experience of Vietnam. Thoroughly to be recommended.

This was our 3rd tour with this operator and we will definitely do another trip in the near future. We brought 2 couples along with us and they too want to do another tour! We were Impressed with the itinerary and the organizing of each day.
Each guide has his strengths. Mr. Anh Co was an excellent educator and guide. During the bus transfers, he answered questions we had regarding his country. He also educated the group about the history and current events of his country. He had to occasionally adjust our itinerary due to road construction or adverse conditions and he always had our safety as his top priority. Mr. Anh Co took many pictures of the riders and took the time to email us all the photos.
Mr. Kloth for our Cambodia portion was a strong, organized rider. We had some long days in the saddle and I liked how he compartmentalized the ride into shorter increments (i.e.: 20 km, 20km, 15, 15, 10, 10 totaling 90 kms!), which physiologically the 90 kms was easier! Mr Kloth and his team were very cohesive and they worked well together.

What a fabulous adventure!!
Quang was our tour leader and he was so knowledgeable. We could not have been in better hands.. He took such great care of us and was able to problem solve any challenges. The rest of the staff in Vietnam was fantastic. Our mechanic Sun was so great also! He kept our bikes in tiptop shape and was able to improvise when required. He kept everyone very safe. We felt very well cared for and were provided with enough adventure and challenge to keep us all happy. We saw everything did everything and tried everything we possibly could’ve during that time. What an epic journey! We celebrated my birthday while we were away, and we had a special dinner and a cake to top it all off! Really couldn’t have changed much on the trip to make it better. Thank you so much. It was fantastic! It’s my second trip with Explorer and I’m looking forward to my third!

Did this trip with my 20 year old son. Great father son bonding time experience. Would go back and do it again happily. You need to be pretty fit to get through the whole event. Definitely take factor 50 sun cream, gloves to keep your hands from burning, long sleeved tops and loose trousers to cycle in. It was 35 to 37 degrees when we went in early February. Guides were amazing, off road bicycles were great. The last two days in Cambodia were pretty arduous but the day cycling around Angkor Wat was an all time highlight of my life.
