    The weather during Oct really good and I loved every minute of it. It was a very busy trip but extremely well organized. I very much liked the additional drink stops as it was so very hot. Home made chilled lime was just the thing. I also very much liked Lam pre-booking the meals and us all going together. He found some wonderful places and we had delicious fresh food

    We learn that Northern Vietnam has mountains, that both countries are very different but both great , that all the friendly people along the way add to the fantastic trip, that “a little bit up” can be quite an understatement and finally that your guides love their jobs and love cycling.
