Tailor-made vacations in Vietnam and bike tours: One of Vietnam’s most historic towns, Hue is packed to the brim with relics from the reign of the 19th-century Nguyen emperors. Sitting along the banks of the gorgeous Perfume River, the Imperial Enclosure is a huge site set within walls that sprawl for 2.5 kilometers. While touring the grounds check out the gorgeous Ngo Mon Gate, the Thai Hoa Palace with its finely lacquered interior detailing, the Dien Tho Residence where the Queen Mothers would live, and the Halls of Mandarins with its preserved ceiling murals. A dazzling number of historic sites lie outside the Imperial Enclosure walls as well. One of the nicest ways of visiting a collection of outlying sites is by taking a riverboat cruise on the Perfume River. A day cruise can take you to visit several royal tombs along with some pagodas. If you’re short on time, the best tomb to visit is the Tomb of Tu Doc and the most important pagoda in the area is the Thien Mu Pagoda, with its tower that soars for 21 meters high.
Blending both Vietnamese and European design elements, the architecture of the Khai Dinh Tomb in Hue has been described as Buddhist as well as Roman Gothic. Constructed in the 1920s, the tomb was commissioned by the Emperor of Vietnam as his own future tomb. The entrance of the complex leads to the Honour Courtyard, and then on to the main building called the Thien Dinh. Khai Dinh’s final resting spot is clearly marked by a bronze statue surrounded by beautiful murals.
Mountainous areas occupy three-fourths of Vietnam’s territory, of which 85 percent are the foothills of taller peaks. These areas are not only an on-road and off-road paradise for bikers but also endowed by nature for captivating beauty, unique regional cultures, friendly locals, and indescribably delicious local dishes. Most of our enduro tours are organized in the North, Northwest, Northeast, on the Ho Chi Minh Trail, Ha Giang, Sapa, and Vietnam – Laos – Cambodia borders crossing,… but with a unique track designed by BM Travel Adventure.

Binh was also well aware of the tourists’ demand to not only travel but also learn about local culture, the ethnic minorities and the majestic destinations of Vietnam. Despite huge potentials and great resources, most local travel companies hadn’t invested enough in research in order to develop new, diverse tourism products that truly align with the requirements and expectations of travelers. Binh felt that he was the person to fill the gap. It was in 2008 when a friend asked Binh about a motorcycle road trip to the mountainous areas in the north of Vietnam that he came up with the idea of Vietnam Motorbike Tours Club. After years of travelling solo on two wheels to some of the most remote and isolated places of Vietnam where local ethnic villagers still preserve their unique customs and culture, Binh had gained a deep understanding of the routes and roads and been well aware of the once-in-a-lifetime experience and the stupendous landscapes and views that these trips offer.
Ho Chi Minh is arguably the most popular political figure in Vietnam, and is known to his people as ‘Uncle Ho’. His body is preserved here in a glass case at the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum in central Hanoi (albeit against his wishes). Started in 1973, the construction of the mausoleum was modeled on Lenin’s mausoleum in Russia. Entrance is free of charge, and visitors are required to dress appropriately out of respect for Vietnam’s departed leader.
