My husband and friends…

Karine

On the Roads of Ceylon
My husband and friends embarked me on this adventure, which turned out to be magnificent. It was a feast for the eyes (and the taste buds). I always had a smile on my face! For me, Sri Lanka by motorcycle was a trip full of emotions. Postcard landscapes, roads far from tourist traffic. Travelling by motorcycle is a different way of discovering the land, the locals with their magnificent smiles.... and the city traffic, which is impressive. Between scooters, motorcycles, tuc-tucs, buses, dogs, monkeys... you have to have your eyes everywhere and your heart in your mouth, especially as you're driving on the left. We were lucky enough to be accompanied by Johann, our guide. He's a no-nonsense guy, who's only interested in helping people discover this country, and in taking on some incredible trails and roads. A real adventure! Accompanying us were our driver Priyantha and our mechanic Ruwan, our guardian angels. An incredible human adventure, so much kindness. First road trip for me, a success. Thank you so much!

Isabella

The Land of Maharajas
We were led to expect around 90% paved roads which turned out to be much less than this. This made for an over challenging and stressful experience riding two up. There was no tail end rider provided by the company. This made it difficult to keep the group together, particularly in the cities

I got a real kick out of it;

The Big Crossing
It was a real eye-opener. Discovering India through its way of life, nature and landscapes. The different levels of people between cochine and channais.

Very good approach to India…

CORINNE

The Big Crossing
Very good approach to India on two wheels, for the atmosphere, the landscapes, the smells and the kindness of the people... Rajeev was there to reassure us, as driving on the left is a bit surprising at first, with lots of traffic: scooters motorcycles cars trucks buses and sometimes dogs cows goats. Coming to India is above all a human adventure, and you have to be prepared for this culture shock.

Goa, Jungle & Ancient Wonders
An unforgettable journey! A total change of scenery! Emotional moments such as meeting the children of a school who sang for us, unexpected exchanges with a family waiting for their bus, and a young girl proudly introducing us to her family. Unforgettable!

Beyond the Mekong
I rode with you in Argentina and especially with simon, and the value for money in Laos is nowhere near the level of my previous RV experience. And given the local rates, your rate is much higher than the service you provide, and over 12 days sold for 10 by motorcycle - 3 days of uninteresting liaison + one day off, so a maximum of 6 days, which means that the value for money for me is not great. Excuse my sincerity, but I prefer
Vintage Rides' response

Merci pour votre retour et pour votre sincérité Patrick. Nous sommes ravis d’apprendre que votre expérience en Argentine avec Simon, vous a laissé un très bon souvenir. C’est exactement ce que nous souhaitons offrir à chaque rider sur chacun de nos voyages. Comme mentionné lors de notre appel en ce qui concerne les jours à moto, nous souhaitons aussi préciser que les journées dites "de liaison" ne sont pas des journées perdues : elles ont été pensées comme de vraies journées de ride, qui permettent de traverser la Thaïlande et de profiter de paysages magnifiques et très différents du Laos. Beaucoup de riders apprécient ce contraste, mais nous entendons que ça n’a pas été votre ressenti. Concernant le prix du voyage, le Laos reste une destination logistique complexe, notamment du fait du passage de frontière, des changements d'équipes (guides, véhicules d'assistances...). Tous ces paramètres ont un impact direct sur l’organisation du voyage. Nous espérons malgré tout que vous gardez quelques beaux souvenirs de ce voyage, et serions ravis de vous retrouver sur une prochaine aventure. L’équipe Vintage Rides
