Most Inspirational Moment
Hard to choose a best moment as there were so many for different reasons. Dalat downhill was phenomenal countryside.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Loc Phan was amazing and thoughtful. As was his team. We got to try many local fruits and foods. The team were really sweet, handed you a glass of lemonade and took the bike off you on a rest stop. Lunches were included and they were fabulous. Evening meal restaurants and other recommended places by Loc were all really good. It was a big group of 18 but oddly it felt smaller which was down to organisation. The bus we travelled in was spotless and comfortable.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Highly recommend. Holiday is full on. Days off the bike are perfectly timed and placed. Early starts with some days where you have to pack a smaller bag. We had booked 1 extra day in HCM and Hanoi to allow time to see these two cities. We did not manage to do a Mekong Delta tour which would have been nice if we had 2 additional days in HCM. You don't need to bring any snacks:)
Suggestions
I have given this 5 stars as the holiday was an amazing experience. Just a couple of points. Whale Island was lovely but I was, however, a little stressed at Whale Island as creatures could easily enter your rooms and we were warned that could happen. We are fine, thankfully. The exodus team in the uk is where the booking was made. They were not particularly helpful. They did not respond to emails and had to be chased repeatedly to respond to queries. It did spoil the start of the holiday.
