    Asked on October 6th, 2023

    Hi, I am interested in the Ho Chi Minh Trail Radreise. In your services, I do not see that a bike is provided. Do you expect us to bring a bike? Do you have any recommendations on where we could rent a bike in Vietnam? I assume a road bike or a better gravel bike would be good? What kind of bikes do you recommend for the tour? Road bike, gravel bike, or a normal tracking bike? And would the operator have an adequate selection?
