We ride into the heart of Vietnam’s mysterious mountainous northern highlands which are known as the roof of Indochina. This area is home to spellbinding scenery - the fertile flood plains of the Red River, remote ethnic minority villages along the Chinese border, the soaring peaks of the Tonkinese Alps, and the lush fields and wooden stilt homes of the limestone foothills. This adventure will linger long in your memory. We cover more than 1,000 km of twisting tarmac as Vietnam’s glorious landscapes pass by. But there's plenty of time to stop and admire in the views, chat with hospitable locals, and dine on the region’s famous fresh food... you can even try a shot or two of rice wine! This region has dozens of ethnic minorities who still live off the land, using techniques and traditions unchanged in centuries. We’ll have lots of opportunities to interact with these friendly fascinating people who are famous for their colourful clothes and bustling markets.
