Group Size
The maximum group size for rides in the north is from 5 to 8 people per group (limited to 5 motorcycles), riders or pillion passengers. This will enhance your experience and ensure a high degree of personal attention. Small groups enable us to trek into remote areas with minimal intrusion to the local cultures.

Riding
Offroad Vietnam does not own rental step through (semi-automatic) moped scooters, motorbikes and motorcycles. They hire from Mr Cuong (also known as Master Mechanic or Minsk Doctor) who owns and operates Cuong's Motorbike Adventure shop at 1 Luong Ngoc Quyen Street in Hanoi. All bikes are supremely serviced and well equipped with quality parts and accessories. They provide all riding and rain gear but still advise you to bring your own as we may not have your size due to limited size availability in Vietnam.

Riding experience is necessary. For non-riders, one person may travel as a pillion passenger on the guide's bike. Pairs or couples can also double up on one bike but this is not recommended as Minsks are under-powered for two people.

Ideally, you ride with a group of friends and share your adventure together.

Offroad Vietnam also provides riding lessons at a small cost for beginners on Honda moped scooters or Minsk dirt bikes.
