If you’d like to reschedule your tour, please let us know more than 24 hours in advance. We don’t charge extra for rescheduling, but letting us know in advance is best so that we can arrange our team for you.
We understand that some circumstances make it difficult to give advance cancellation notice. If you must cancel last minute, please contact us via phone and we will discuss refunds depending on the situation.
Prices vary depending on the tour and its location. If you’d like to join a few single-day tours, let us know and we can create a bundle deal for you. Children under 12 always receive 30% off of our normal tour prices. You can find a list of our tours and prices here.
We provide experienced drivers for all of our guests, since we hold safety as one of our highest priorities. However, we understand some of you out there might be Vespa owners and would like to drive. We allow guests to drive on specific tours such as our Glimpse of the Mekong and Hai Van Pass Coastal Adventure. However, contact us directly as we always host a brief driving test to ensure that you (and our team) feels comfortable driving.
We do recommend that you wear sunscreen, sunglasses, and good shoes. For women, we don’t recommend wearing dresses or skirts as it can be uncomfortable while riding on the scooter.
We provide free pick-up and drop-off from all hotels within the cities we operate. However, if you are coming from a neighboring town (for example, coming from Da Nang to do a tour in Hoi An), then we can help you arrange private transportation at a small extra cost or suggest public transportation. Contact our team if you’re not sure you’re staying within city limits.
A mixed group of a shared group is a maximum of 7 guests or less. A requested private group can be as large as our capacity. Some tours require a minimum of 2 guests, as most tours are a minimum of 1.

We typically spend four hours a day or less riding; the rest is open to our guests' whims and suggestions, our guide's recommendations, and to those serendipitous events and happenings that can't possibly be planned. We like to say that at Vietnam Vespa Adventures we have set destinations, but not set tours.
1. Join one of our existing, currently scheduled tours (you can find those schedules here and here).
2. Create a new tour date for yourself for which we'll try to find additional passengers, up to a maximum of 8 total travelers
3. Create a new exclusive tour date for your group of less than 8 travelers at a slight additional charge
We have scheduled tours, but we’re also happy to book tours according to our guests' travel schedules. We understand that itineraries can be tight when traveling abroad, and we do our best to work within them. We require a minimum of 4 people for a tour to go forward (unless you book an exclusive tour for fewer than that), but for those booking well in advance, there's rarely any problem with finding additional passengers for a given tour. We can lock in any date with a small 20% deposit, which is fully refundable up to two weeks prior to departure.
On day one of the tour we spend as much time as necessary orienting our guests on the Vespas and automatic scooters. We reserve the right to qualify each rider for satisfactory safe driving ability on these vintage scooters. If we are not fully satisfied with a guest's demonstrated ability, we will provide an automatic scooter in order to assure his/her safety and that of the entire group. (Guests are also welcome to ride pillion behind one of our experienced drivers or behind another guest driving his or her own Vespa. Alternatively, we can also provide automatic scooters for you to drive on the trip instead of Vespas.)
We spend considerable time going over the document we provide our guests entitled ‘How To Drive Safely in Vietnam,’ which explains at length the very different driving conditions to be found in Vietnam and how to navigate them safely. We also provide high-quality full-faced helmets for all our guests.
Our Terms and Conditions make very clear that we expect guests to follow our guide and crew’s instructions to the letter throughout the tour. We are not flexible on this condition.
Because of all these precautions, our accident record is essentially zero. We've had the occasional unavoidable minor mishap but none of our passengers have ever been injured beyond a scrape or two and slightly bruised pride.
It would be false to suggest that our tour is as safe as sitting at home on a sofa and watching the Travel Channel on TV. The name of our company has the word Adventures in it, and an adventure is what we aim to provide -- but in as reliable, secure and comfortable a manner as is possible in Vietnam.
The condition of the roads is generally fine, but there are occasional rough spots with potholes or sand of the road. We travel these roads almost every week, so we have very good idea where we’ll need to take extra care. Also, our guide in front will always warn passengers before we approach one. Again, your safety is our highest priority.
The Mui Ne Coastal Adventure and Nha Trang Coastal & Highland Adventure include three and six nights (respectively) of hotel/resort accommodation, all food and drink, our road crew and tour guide, a support van, Vespa rental, petrol and several days worth of spectacular scenery and memories to last a lifetime. (Airfare and alcohol are not included).
