I am someone who has travelled by motorbike a great deal with one other person. Joining a tour is not normal for me. But it worked out pretty well. I would have preferred a slightly slower pace on the rough bits. I would have preferred more opportunity for a quick photo of extraordinary sights..just one or two more. But on the other hand I did not ask and should have done. I like the odd and different hotels. I like looking at the countryside but that is difficult in India when you have to look at the road so much to avoid all the hazards. I knew about that as I had motorbiked in India before. I did not like the van drive at the end. I would have preferred to have ridden the bike more towards Delhi or even into Delhi. I had come to ride a bike and not be driven especially by any Indian driver who I regard as all being dangerous drivers. I do also wish that there had been more English. The French were fine but it was tricky if they had no english and I did not have much french. At least there was one other English person, but he was not a ball of fun !! Not your fault and that was my risk!
The nationalities of the riders were only advised at the last minute.I expected a strong French speaking contingent but felt a little outnumbered at 10 to 1 although everyone was very friendly.I would have accepted a change of dates for a more international group.
A wonderful trip that exceeded my expectations and enjoyed the group mix and dynamic. Shame about the snoring from my room mate!! (maybe offer ear plugs)
I was very impressed with every aspect of the trip to be honest. The level of professionalism from the staff. The organisation of your team and the all inclusive nature of the trip. We didn't have to buy lunch or pay for admissions. The hotels where all to a good standard and the trip was exciting and fun. Thanks Stephane, Auo, Chai & Jen- It was fun!!!
The trip was excellent unbelievable riding! The only drawback was the pace traveled. As hotel spacings limited long distances were so fast I missed seeing the views as I was concentrating on driving!!
GENERALLY ANOTHER FANTASTIC TRIP. LAOS WAS NOWHERE NEAR AS INTENSE AS NEPAL FOR RIDING CHALLENGE, BUT WE KNEW THAT BEFORE WE CAME. DID FEEL SLIGHTLY LIKE THERE WAS AN ATTEMPT TO SQUEEZE MONEY OUT OF US. CONSIDERING WE ARE A CONFIRMED GROUP OF 9 PEOPLE, A COUPLE OF THE HOTELS APPEARED TO HAVE BEEN CHOSEN ON PRICE (WHEN THERE WERE OTHER BETTER HOTELS NEARBY THAT WOULD LIKELY HAVE COST LITTLE MORE). ALSO, WHEN IN NEPAL THE DINNERS WERE INCLUDED IN THE TRIP (LESS ALCOHOL) SO WE WERE SURPRISED THIS TIME WHEN WE WERE TO PAY FOR THEM. ALBEIT NOT A MASSIVE ISSUE, WOULD HAVE BEEN GOOD TO HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS PRIOR TO THE TRIP. BUT GENERALLY ANOTHER GREAT TRIP, A GREAT GUIDE IN TRISTAN AND A GREAT EXPERIENCE. NOW TO DETOX!
I think you should make all trips all inclusive. Nepal was but Laos was not.
I would not hesitate in booking another tour with VR probably market leaders.
