North Vietnam Motorbike Tour from Hanoi to Hai Phong 11 Days

We are all excited about this six-day motorbike tour exploring northwest Vietnam. Our first destination is Phu Yen, which is more than 1000m above sea level. Majestic mountains, lush green forests, and small valleys nestled between mountains and hills, Phu Yen is like a giant art painting and a marvelous masterpiece of creation.

It takes 4 hours to drive from Hanoi to Phu Yen, which is 190 km away, and we choose the Noi Bai-Lao Cai highway route. Driving off the beaten path, we arrive at Phu Yen after four hours, our first destination in our six-day northwest Vietnam motorcycle tour. Over the hills, we catch the sight of rice and corn fields which are well blended and look like an oil painting with radiant colors. The poetic beauty of this area is typical of the northwest area of Vietnam. Setting our foot in this land, taking a deep breath, we find peace within us.
