What to Pack and Prepare for Your Vietnam Motorbike Tour

What to Pack and Prepare for Your Vietnam Motorbike Tour


So, you’re about to hop on a motorbike and ride through Vietnam’s mountains, beaches, villages, and everything in between? First of all – excellent choice. A motorbike tour isn’t just a way to travel, it’s the adventure of a lifetime.

But before you hit the road with the wind in your hair (helmet on, of course), let’s make sure you’re fully prepped. Here’s a friendly guide from us – your Easy Rider team – on what to bring, what to wear, and how to make the most of your journey.

1. Dress Like a Rider, Not a Rockstar


You don’t need to look like a fashion influencer, but you do want to feel comfortable, protected, and ready for a bit of dust and sun.

What to wear:

 • Light, breathable clothes – Long sleeves and long pants are ideal (they keep the sun and bugs off).
 • A light jacket or windbreaker – Especially if you’re headed into the highlands or traveling in the cooler months.
 • Closed-toe shoes – Trust us, flip-flops don’t mix well with motorbike foot pegs.
 • Sunglasses and a hat/cap (for when you’re off the bike).
 • Optional but useful: Buff/neck gaiter, light gloves, a quick-dry scarf.

2. Pack Light, Pack Smart


The golden rule? If it doesn’t fit in a backpack, you probably don’t need it.

Essentials to bring:

 • Passport + Travel insurance (keep it in a ziplock or dry pouch)
 • Personal medication and basic first aid
 • Sunscreen – Vietnam sun loves tourists
 • Phone/camera + charger/power bank – There’ll be views you will want to brag about.
 • Toiletries – Especially for multi-day tours. Nothing fancy, just the basics.

3. What We’ve Got Covered


We want you to enjoy the ride, so here’s what you don’t need to worry about:
 • A safe, comfortable motorbike (we take care of maintenance)
 • Experienced English-speaking guide – not just a driver, but also your translator, storyteller, and sometimes even photographer!
 • Helmet (for rider & passenger)
 • Gasoline, tolls, and route planning
 • Rain ponchos (because, again… Vietnam!)
 • Accommodation (for overnight tours)

4. Road Wisdom: Tips from the Easy Rider Family


You don’t need to be a pro rider (or even ride at all – we’ve got that covered), but here are a few things that’ll help your trip go smooth:
 • Helmet = must. Always. No exceptions.
 • Speak up! Need a coffee stop, bathroom break, or cool photo spot? Just say it – we’re here for you.
 • Don’t fear the curves – our guides have ridden these roads hundreds of times.
 • Keep your valuables close, especially during breaks in public areas.
 • Smile at locals – it works wonders.

5. A Few Handy Extras


Not required, but they might make your trip even better:
• Travel pillow (for long rides or naps at rest stops)
 • Quick-dry towel
 • Flip-flops (for the guesthouse)
 • Snacks – nuts, dried fruit, or anything you love
 • Small notebook or journal – for memories that photos can’t capture

6. Final Pre-Ride Checklist


Before you meet your Easy Rider guide:
 • Double-check your tour details & pick-up time
 • Charge your devices
 • Tell us about any allergies or special needs
 • Use the bathroom before we start (seriously, it’s underrated)
