A personal comment, as there is no…

Personal note as there is no place for this: The mix of single rider and motorcycle couple doesn't work. Roads full of potholes or unpaved are not suitable for uninformed duos often in difficulty. Is the required level of riding experience analyzed? The request to provide a tip seemed to many of us like a second salary, and made us feel uncomfortable. Given the price of the trip, you're supposed to pay the local staff properly, and all the more so for a European guide, as he wasn't a guide, logically paid on European bases. As far as I'm concerned, the price should be all-inclusive, but it's up to each person to give more depending on the event. For the guestbook: It's a great trip with nothing to worry about! The two guides were very kind and considerate, the off-road aspect had not been specified (it made up a good part of the trip) but gave us the opportunity to discover back roads and beautiful landscapes, villages far from tourist destinations, and to have fun on the bikes at everyone's own pace. It is, however, a destination to be avoided by couples. The group atmosphere was excellent, thanks to its small size and the kindness of its leader Hans.

Allow me to make a personal remark…

I'd like to make a personal comment because you don't allow free expression. Point 1 is for you, point 2 for the guestbook. Point 1: The level of the drivers was different and at times the group hummed along behind a slow driver. Hanz then adapted during the course of the trip. Could you please let us know on what ethical basis you employ local staff: drivers, mechanics and guides. The amount of the recommended tip left the impression that we were giving them a salary they didn't have. This is probably not accurate, but it was not clear to each member of the group, as we freely exchanged views on the subject and none of us was really informed. Your commitment to transparency should be displayed when we sign up. Point 2: for the guest book A different kind of trip, very well taken care of and logistics, surrounded by competent people. Laos is an easy country that lends itself particularly well to drivers who want to have fun on the off-road. I'll keep an excellent memory.

The trip to Thailand Laos beat all of my expectations for this trip. The views from the mountains were spectacular and the rides offered just the right amount of variety and challenges. I have already convinced another rider to do the trip!
