To finish up our tour of Southeast Asia, we spent a few weeks cycling in Central Vietnam. We experienced lots of highs and lows in Vietnam, going from fantastic cycling roads along the coast to intense and unpredictable traffic in the cities. We spent some time off the bikes in Hue, Da Nang, and Hoi An before boxing our bikes and flying to South Korea.

Beautiful video.

Các bạn thật là phi thường xin cảm phục các bạn chào mừng các bạn đến việt nam hy vọng các bạn sẽ có được nhiều niềm vui
Hi there, i’m from Cần Thơ, the southern, if need some help or you guys still in VN. Can send me a message!
So much trash on side of the roads!
Chào mừng bạn đến việt nam chúng tôi. Chúc bạn có chuyến đi vui vẻ
We should really avoid the highway when cycling through Vietnam. However, interesting experiences with nature and people will be worth the trade-off. Really sorry about the accident at the last minute. A warning light and a small bell are tips to avoid unnecessary accidents when we cycle in Vietnam. Our traffic and culture are improving day by day. Hope you are excited in the next coming to Vietnam. Thanks!
Are you happy when you come to Vietnam with difficulties on the way?That's how Vietnam is, hard and busy, what will you describe to your loved ones when you are in our country? Wish your journey more favorable and sunny
Love you guys video👍👍❤️
Cycling adventure of a Lifetime
welcome to Vietnam 😊😊😊
Vietnam country side is AMAZING 👏 😍 ❤️
That sushi boat! 8o)
beautiful recording
Are you sure that is just a sidewalk? That looks pretty wide to me, as if they meant it to be a combination bike path, like that is where they want you to ride.
