July 2016
4 July 2016 It’s safe to say we didn’t really warm to Nha Trang. A major tourist haven full of rude tourists and over priced eateries, and beaches of sun loungers. So on just our second morning in Nha Trang we opted for an early start, a buffet breakfast in our hotel and then a quick […]
Nha Trang is situated on the southern central coast of Vietnam. It is well known for its beaches and surrounding islands. A promenade stretches along the main beach. The towns economy relies heavily on tourism and it has become a popular destination for both local and international tourists. Our Trip Nha Trang was one of the […]
2 July 2016 Following a relatively big night of beers, we opt for a later than usual start. Heading down to the restaurant area for a late breakfast in the hotel. We then do our pack up as usual, and whilst Tracey heads to pay for the hotel, I set about some mechanic work on […]
1 July 2016 After an awesome nights sleep in the coffee tour resort, we grabbed a leisurely breakfast in the resort before heading out for a sightseeing day. Search for Rice Paper Village First on the hit list for the day was to try and find the local rice paper village we had read about. […]
30 June 2016 Since we had spent the night in a Nha Nghi, it was the usual early start with an 8 a.m. check out time. After carrying out bags down from the top floor to start loading up, I head over to pay. I hand over the 200,000 VND which I thought was the […]
29 June 2016 After a fantastic few days in Kon Tum and some great fun experiences, it’s time to pack up and check out of the KonKlor hotel. A quick breakfast at the hotel before finally setting off. As we were pulling out there were two other westerners in motorbikes also heading south for the […]
Kon Tum Province lies in the Central Highlands region of Vietnam and shares borders with Laos and Cambodia. The city is relatively relaxed place with quiet streets and some scenic rivers nearby. The surrounding area is known for its indigenous hill tribes including Bahnar, Sedang and Jarai. As with most places, the region saw a lot of combat […]
27 June 2016 We start early again for a second day of breakfast with our new friends; meeting up at the local cafe by the pond at 7:30am. There is a light shower of rain in the air, but considerably dryer than the previous day. After a delicious breakfast of banh mi, cakes and coffee, and […]
25 June 2016 After a stormy and relatively cool night (coldest of our trip so far), we set about packing our bikes for the short ride through to Kon Tum. The roads were still fairly damp from the previous night’s storms, and a fair amount of debris in the corners. As we swung out of […]
24 June 2016 We woke fairly early in the noisy hotel in Quảng Ngãi and decide to pack up and head on towards the Central Highlands. As we get downstairs we find both of our bikes have been moved from where we were told to park them, for no particular good reason. We then have […]
