Southern Motorbike Tours

Southern Motorbike Tours take riders to discover Southern Vietnam by motorcycle or scooter. This region covers the Mekong Delta, the extreme southern end of the Mekong River, and the area around Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam. Like all river deltas, it receives the bounty of the siltation from the upper Mekong, and as such is a very rich and lush area, covered with rice fields. It produces about half of the total of Vietnam’s agricultural output (in fact, the delta produces more rice than Korea and Japan together), and is the place for timeless views of farmers planting or harvesting rice.

The Mekong splits in Cambodia into two main rivers, the Bassac (Hau Giang) and the First River (Tien Giang). Then in Vietnam it splinters into a more complex system, creating a maze of small canals, rivers and arroyos interspersed with villages and floating markets. Life in the Mekong Delta revolves around the river, and all the villages are often accessible by river as well as by road. The Southern Vietnam destinations include Cat Tien National Park, Con Dao, Can Tho, Chau Doc , Cu Chi, Ho Chi Minh City, Long Xuyen, Mui Ne, My Tho, Phan Thiet, Phu Quoc, Vung Tau, Tay Ninh, Vinh Long, Tra Vinh with the economic engine of Vietnam built around Ho Chi Minh City.
