This trip could have been more…

Anne Marie

Beyond the Mekong
This trip could have been more enjoyable if we'd taken a little more time to enjoy the scenery. Even as a passenger, I had to concentrate on the road to avoid and anticipate any violent bumps in the back due to the state of the roads in Laos, so I'm a bit frustrated. Personally, as a driver I couldn't have done this road trip, but fortunately I had chosen to be a passenger to enjoy the scenery, which wasn't the case most of the time. In addition, we paid 150 € for full board, thank you for refunding the overpayment.
Vintage Rides' response

Merci encore pour votre retour, et pour le temps que vous avez pris lors de notre échange téléphonique Anne-Marie. Nous sommes ravis de savoir que, sur le fond, vous avez apprécié la découverte du Laos, ses paysages, les rencontres avec la population locale, ainsi que la qualité des hébergements et des repas. C’est ce qui rend ces voyages si uniques, et nous sommes heureux que ces aspects aient été à la hauteur. Nous entendons en revanche votre frustration concernant le rythme du voyage et le manque de confort sur les routes. Comme mentionné, les routes du Laos peuvent se révéler particulièrement rudes selon les saisons et cette année, l’état des pistes était encore plus sec et poussiéreux que d’habitude, rendant certaines portions plus éprouvantes. Concernant la pension complète, le remboursement du trop-perçu de a bien été effectué comme convenu. Nous espérons malgré tout que cette aventure laissera quelques bons souvenirs, et surtout, que vous resterez ouverte à repartir avec nous dans d’autres contrées, avec une expérience à la hauteur de vos attentes. L’équipe Vintage Rides

Beyond the Mekong
This is not my first trip with VR. In 2023 I went to Sri Lanka alone. This year, with a friend and a full group of riders... I was a bit apprehensive about the pace... (3 bikes in a couple) on difficult terrain. But to my astonishment, the ride was great. I already knew Thailand, but not Laos. Big shock as soon as we crossed the border. We're in another world... a tested country frozen 50 years in the past. But the welcome we received from the children was one of the highlights of the trip. The state of the roads is deplorable...but that's also the point of the trip... I'm coming back from this trip delighted...exhausted but delighted...?

A superb experience, the road, the scenery, …
