Hue to Danang Today was the highlight of my holiday to Vietnam so far. I've been here for one week in HCMC, Hoi An and Hue, but today was magical. Hieu as the perfect guide, showing me the real Vietnam - fishing villages, the Hai Van Pass, Elephant Springs and breathtaking lakes, paddy fields and rows of Lang Co Beach. I would do another trip with Hieu definitely. A must for anyone who wants a lot of adventure and an exhilarating day. It's not something that can be replicated by bus, trains or group tours. I will recommend this to everyone. PS the lunch at Lang Co Beach was a local seafood restaurant he handpicked after he asked me what food I liked. It was the best seafood I've had in Vietnam - fresh oysters, mussels and squid and very cheap!!! |

2 Day Hue to Hoi An Tour
Thanks Hieu for an amazing 2 day adventure. My first time on the back of a motorbike and I was a little apprehensive, but Hieu made me feel so safe that by the second day I was taking photos while he was driving. Hieu explained a lot about the local areas as we passed through and about life in rural Vietnam. It was an amazing way to get off the tourist trail and see the real Vietnam as Hieu called it. The scenery along the Hoi Chi Minh trail was spectacular and I loved seeing the locals at work.
I would totally recommend with Hieu. He is very friendly, kind and the most important to me - a very good driver!

3 Day Hue to Hoi An Tour
My boyfriend and I took a 3 day tour from Hue to Hoi An. Hieu was a fantastic driver and very knowledgable. We saw beautiful scenery and had many stops to stretch our legs and take photos. The accommodation and food was fantastic and Hieu and his brother spent the evenings answering our questions and talking about the local area and people. The highlight of the trip was the amazing Ho Chi Minh trail and stopping to swim in a waterfall. I would definitely book again. BRILLIANT TRIP!

1 Day Hue Tour and 1 Day Hue to Hoi An
The Hue Rider team found us wandering the streets in Hue with all our bags. As soon as we were offered a lift and shown to a perfect, cheap hotel we knew they were different to all the other touts! We decided to go on a day tour of Hue instead of trying to make our own way - good idea! It was amazing to motorbike through the streets and I felt really safe on the back with Hieu.
The next day we booked the one day tour to Hoi An instead of getting the train like we originally planned! Hieu said it was the only way to see the real Vietnam and he was right! We saw everything we wanted on the way and were shown the perfect places for photos and recommended amazing places for real noodle soup! Delicious!
Amazing time, friendly guides! Could not have asked for more!! Thank you!!!

1 day Hue to Hoi An
Al principio choca bastante que te acerquen por la calle, parece que te quieren vender algo estúpido como siempre. Pero tras hablar un rato con Hieu, te da muy buena impresión. Y efectivamente así fue. El viaje normal (por bus) hubiera sido uno más. Pero en moto, realmente VES el paisaje y te metes de lleno en Vietnam y sus motos conduciendo por todas partes.
LO RECOMIENDO SIN DUDA!! Hieu es muy simpático y nos ha preparado un viaje increíble!
Translation:
At first, it's a bit off-putting that they approach you on the street, it seems like they want to sell you something stupid like always. But after talking to Hieu, he gives you a great impression. And effective it was. The typical trip (by bus) would have been just another one. But by motorbike, you really SEE the countryside and you immerse yourself completely in Vietnam with your bikes driving everywhere.
I recommend it without a doubt! Hieu's very nice and provided an incredible trip!

1 day Hue to Hoi An
We are from Sydney, Australia. Sometimes you have to go with your gut feelings. We met Hieu in the street and it just felt right. I was very nervous but I have never felt safer on the roads than I did on the ack of Hieu's motorbike. What a fantastic day. Had we not already booked the rest of our holidays we would have continued on the bikes. I will be telling my children to take a tour with Hieu that is how safe I felt!~

Taste of the highlands 2 day Hue to Hoi An tour
I just arrived in Hoi An after a two day trip with Linh from Hue Riders. Linh picked me up at my hotel in Hue and we drove through the mountains down the Ho Chi Minh trail, passed country villages and stopped at local places for coffee breaks and lunch. Linh was very kind and I felt safe and very well looked after the entire trip. The scenery was breath taking and I enjoyed every second of this trip. I would recommend everyone who has the time to do the 2day tour as it is really worth it. Thank you very much Linh for taking such good care of me and for being such a good and safe driver. I couldn't have wished for a better driver!

2 day custom Hue-DMZ tour
Hi guys! Just wanted to say a big thank for our 2 day tour that you took us on around the DMZ and back along HO CHI MIN trail. We had an excellent time, really enjoyed it, for me it was my favourite part of travelling so far, and we've been away for 2 months! Now I just have to buy a motorbike when I get home.

1 day Hue to Hoi An + 3 day Ho Chi Minh trail, Hoi An to Hoi An
My son told me when you go to Vietnam dad you have to take the bike tour from Hue to Hoi An via the Pass. We did and it was spectacular. Hieu and Tam picked my wife and I up at our hotel early in the morning and proceeded to load our cases and bags on their bikes. We just looked on in amazement as everything was fastened down. Then off we went through the Hue rush hour, dodging and weaving the traffic just happy we were passengers and not riding ourselves. We enjoyed the experience so much that after spending a night in Hoi An shopping we signed up for the 3 day/ 2 night trip to the Central Highlands and of course the famous Ho Chi Minh Trail. Words cannot adequately describe this trip you just have to do it. Imagine a mountain road where you can pull over for a break and no traffic passes for 15 minutes, well that's what its like. We stopped in Kham duc and Kon Tum overnight in great quality hotels eating out at local cafes and bars with the guys. They have been the perfect hosts and have given us some special memories we will talk about for a long time to come. It will be a sad day when we part tomorrow to continue our trip south.

2 day Hue to Hoi An
We booked a two day trip with Hue Riders after reading reviews on TripAdvisor. We did the 2 day/1 night trip from Hue to Hoi An. We weren't disappointed. Hieu was brilliant at making us feel very safe. He showed us the real Vietnam and the trip to the village in the mountain will stay with us forever. Seeing the delight on the childrens faces when we gave them sweets, paper and footballs was priceless. We loved the trip so much that when we arrived in Hoi An we booked a further day to travel the Hai Van pass. Spectacular!! Thanks Hieu for an unforgettable honeymoon trip!

Quy, without any doubt this 3-day tour of the DMZ and Central Highlands of Vietnam was the highlight of our trip to glorious Vietnam. I have to admit that I was a bit apprehensive about 3 days on the back of a motorbike, but it sounded like one hell of an adventure!
Before this journey I had never been on the back of a motorbike! However, with luggage on the back it actually becomes quite a comfortable ride! The scenery, the people, the rain, the sun, the mountains, the meals we shared, and your genuinely fun personality made this 3 day ride one of the highlights of my life! (and I've been to a few places...) I hope to see you again soon on my next visit to Hue! I will certainly recommend you to my friends and anyone else who is seeking an amazing adventure!

Hue to Hoi An 1 Day
Wow what a great way to see the countryside and get to all the sights. We are travelling as a family of 5 (kids 14, 13 and 7). We decided to do a day trip around Hue. Awesome day even though it was raining.
We felt very safe burning around the country!! Cruising through rice paddies and through some amazing villages! A great way to really get into the culture. Saw all the sights - in our own time, no waiting for others. Had a fabulous lunch as well. Decided after such a great experience to travel to Hoi An with them also. Children and bags - what a great way to go. Regular stops and some great photo opportunities. The Elephant water springs was the best stop ever! The kids had a great time jumping off the rocks and swimming in the cool rock pools. Very helpful too. Our hotel we wanted was all booked out, so they helped us find another.
Couldn't recommend them highly enough. Excellent and very trustworthy!!
Thanks Guys, Jo & Leo.

The worst possible thing you could do is to be offered this wonderful experience & reject it.
We all had an incredible time with these open, kind and trustworthy people.
Having travelled the world and seen alot these guys showed me the REAL VIETNAM.
The locals and landscape were a breath of fresh air. Now I would consider Vietnam the greatest country because of Hieu and his team.

Thank you so much for the amazing adventure across central Vietnam.
For me, this motorbike trip has been the highlight of my travels in Vietnam. For anyone comtemplating an adventure with Hung and Hue Riders, take the time to see Vietnam by motorbike...from Hue to Dalat...or customize your adventure with them. It is an understatement just to say it will be an adventure you will never forget.

Taste of the Highlands, Hue in a Day
First things first: Hieu is not trying to scam you or take your money, you are safe with him.
My name is Chris and I'm a 25 year old civil engineer from Canada. I just finished the Hue City Tour and the 2 day trip to Hoi An via the Ho Chi Minh Trail. Both were Amazing.
You will get the following if you decide to use Hieu:
SAFETY - His bike is in good shape and in 3 days i never once felt in danger.
SERVICE - Hieu cleaned my silverwear, buckled my helmut and stopped where ever I wanted.
FOOD - Hieu knows amazing local restaurants at dirt cheap prices, he picked my food for me for 3 days and I did not have a bad meal or spend more than 25,000 dong.
THE REAL VIETNAM - Doing the 2 day trip to Hoi An was one of my best travel experiences to date.
The country is beautiful and the best way to see it is from a motorcycle. The wind in your face and the ability to look around, Plus he will stip whenever you want for photos.
The minority groups you will see are real. The don't try to sell you anything - they just want to come and say hello. They are easily the friendliest people I have seen in my travels.
If you don't take the tour with Hieu you will not see the real Vietnam. For the price of a pair of nice pants you can have something you will never forget, Don't worry about the money. Just do it!! Thank you so much Hieu.

Southern Delights, Hue in a Day
If you are reading this then you are a step closer to an amazing adventure to SEE, TASTE & EXPERIENCE the "Real Vietnam"!. My girlfriend and I met Hung and Hieu on a rainy afternoon on Hue. We were both a little apprehensive - we knew we wanted to really see Vietnam and all the country has to offer - but only had a reletively short time.
After chatting to Hung & Hieu we both had a good vibe and initially signed up to the Hue City Tour - by lunchtime in a great vietnamese restaurant (phuong Nam Cafe) with them both - we had already signed up to the 7 day / 6 night tour to Mui Ne. We could not wish to meet two kinder more hospitable gentleman - they looked after us as if we were family.
I am sitting writing this in Mui Ne after what I can only describe as an adventure of a lifetime! All of my initial disapointment of Hanoi were blown away as our tour began. We were lucky enough to see places, meet local people that you simply would not be able to in a bus or train! BURN YOUR BUS / TRAIN TICKET NOW !!!
These guys will safely take you around the most amazing places on a bike. You experience everything, the changing scenery, coffee plantations, rubber plantations, mountains, rivers, waterfalls, local village children waving frantically at you wanting to practice their few words of english! And the food!! Oh the food - amazing Vietnamese foood in simple local places. We shared breakfast, lunch and dinner with Hung and Hieu for 7 days, every meal a delight. so accommodating. Talking of accommodation, good, clean, simple hotels with ensuite bathrooms and hot water! Enjoying lunch and dinner with Hieu's family enroute was a highlight - trust me - you will never experience hospitality like a vietnamese family. Hung & Hieu - I cannot thank you enough my friends, the motorbike tour with Hue Riders has been unforgettable for us both. I only hope we can repay your care and hospitality sometime in the near future. Thank you, Nev

Definitely the REAL Vietnam. Meeting Hieu and Hung was the best thing to happen to me my whole trip - SERIOUSLY!
Before we decided to take the plunge with them I wasn't understanding why everyone said Vietnam was the most beautiful country - now I understand and am in LOVE with Vietnam.
Over the past 7 days I have breezed through beautiful countryside, met local people, see minority tribes, climbed around amazing waterfalls and eaten the most delicious food. Before agreeing to go I was nervous about what the accommodation would be like (and everything else actually) but we were more than pleased - we've had the best 7 days ever.
Along the way you will also have the privaledge to learn first hand about Vietnam's history and culture and it's all fantastic.
PLEASE DON'T CHOOSE THE BUS OR THE TRAIN! They are boring and cramped and all you will see are tourists! Hieu is lovely and hilarious company too - very kind and trustworthy - he will really look after you and your luggage.
Thank you so much Hieu - without you I would never have seen Vietnam for real (or tasted, smelt, felt, etc, etc!)

There is no better way to see Vietnam, than on the back of a motorbike with Linh and Hung. We met the guys at the Phuong Nam Cafe and booked a one day trip around Hue. Unfortunatley we already had transport to Hoi An, but decided the Hue Day trip was that good that we would take the 2 day trip back from Hoi and to Hue. I would recommend this trip to everyone, the Ho Chi Minh Trail is amazing and its made even better travelling with Linh and Hung who take you to all the best pleaces to eat and drink, a truly Vietnamese experience! Taking this trip was the highlight of our time in Vietnam!
