HOI AN MOTORBIKE TOUR TO HUE VIA KHE SANH

Setting off from Hoi An on our Hoi An motorbike tour to Hue via Khe Sanh, Vinh Moc, it's quickly apparent that this is going to be a journey like none other. The Vietnam countryside comes alive in a whole new way as you pass through the fields and villages of Hoi An in an open-air jeep.

*BRIEF ITINERARY
Day 1: Hoi An – Motorbike Tour to Ba Hom Village
Day 2: Ba Hom – Khe Sanh – A Luoi
Day 3: Khe Sanh – Vinh Moc – Hue

Day 1 – Hoi An Motorbike Tour To Hue Via Khe Sanh: Hoi An motorbike tour to Ba Hom Village

Quang Nam: Motorbike tour to Ba Hom Village

The route takes us away from the coast and into the hills, an area often inaccessible by normal car. As we wind into the mountains we’ll come across ancient Cham ruins and famous American war sites, hopping out of our jeeps to snap photos and explore the tourist-free areas. At midday we’ll reach Ba Hom, where our Co Tu hosts will welcome us to their village. Lunch will be served in the village and then we’ll venture further into the mountains with a light trek. The route crosses over the original Ho Chi Minh Trail and leads us to a therapeutic hot spring where we can swim and relax in the healing waters.
This evening our hosts prepare a traditional Co Tu feast. Dining in the village on the local cuisine and sleeping in their stilted houses gives us the rare chance to experience firsthand the traditions of Vietnam’s ethnic minority people. This is a true taste of authentic hilltribe culture – an experience that is increasingly rare to find.

We begins the afternoon, winding  through  the A Shau Valley, a ruggedly beautiful valley that became famous during the American War as the site of many battles, the most famous being Khe Sanh where we stay for the night.

Day 3 – Hoi An Motorbike Tour To Hue Via Khe Sanh: Khe Sanh motorbike tour to Hue via Vinh Moc Tunnels

Motorbike Tour to Khe Sanh

Driving along Highway 9, we pass famous American war sites like the Rock Pile and Camp Carol, before crossing the former border between North and South Vietnam at the 17th parallel. We arrive at the Vinh Moc tunnels, where an entire village went underground in the 1960s to survive the bombing. After exploring the tunnels, we head to a local beach where you can cool off with a swim.
After lunch we drive along the coastline and arrive in Hue late afternoon.

(Meals:  Breakfast, Lunch)

Optional Abseiling at Marble Mountain on day 1:
We walk up Marble Mountain into the rappelling area, which takes about 10 to 15 minutes.
The first rappel is a short walk from the practice area and enjoys a fantastic view of the ocean. This 22 meter line has great exposure, fantastic scenery and makes you feel like you are much higher than you actually are.
Then we do our final rappel; a monster 50 meter drop into a gaping hole so deep and dark that you can’t see the bottom. This fantastic cave rappel drops right out of the jungle down into a temple chamber. Get ready for a full on Tomb Raider experience!
