I am a solo traveler, so I am worried that this trip (Oct 1 Northern Vietnam) won't have enough people to run if I book it. I also didn't see it listed on your own website. Do you know if you will have enough people to run the trip. I am not in a good position to reschedule if this falls through.

Unfortunately, you're right to be cautious, as we don't have enough participants for the requested October 1st departure at this time. However, we do have another guaranteed departure for the Ha Giang Loop on September 20th, 2025. We are confident this trip will run as scheduled. If that date could work for you, we would be thrilled to have you join us.

What should I pack for the tour?

You should pack comfortable clothing, sunscreen, sunglasses, and any personal medications.

What time is the pick-up for the tour?

The tour pick-up is typically at 7:30 AM from the designated hotel.

My family and I have had the pleasure of doing several tours with Mr. Biker Saigon. Thai and his crew are THE BEST -- they are experienced, organized, responsive, and extremely knowledgeable about the routes and local communities. One of our trips involved a group of 14 riders with different abilities. Each day during the four-day tour, Thai and his team provided us with several options to make sure everyone felt comfortable and also challenged. We lived in Vietnam for three years and these bike tours with Mr. Biker Saigon were the highlights of our stay in this beautiful country.

First encountered Thai and team (aka Mr Biker) on same charity tour as Horacio (see review). Then the Mai Chau - Pu Luong - Ninh Binh one. Each time Thai and his expert team of experienced riders (Thai, An, Trong and co.) and professional support team have made the tour experience effortless, even if the riding has been challenging - just the way it should be. That's why I can't wait to ride with them again - next stop, I hope, Ha Giang loop.
