These dudes are amazing, without doubt my highlight of SE Asia. The Easy Riders are freelance Vietnamese motorbike guides. For $50 a day, you jump on the back, rucksack tied on with bungees and hit the open road.

I did a four-day trip through the central highlands along the Ho Chi Min Trail. The scenery and nature are spectacular but the real gems are the guides, they open doors to the real Vietnam. I learnt so much and got up close and personal with the locals - an unforgettable trip.

Just turn up in Dalat and within a few minutes one of the Easy Riders will have probably found you.

If you really want to experience Vietnam and all of its beauty and glory, I recommend doing it on a motorbike.

I have made three such journeys (I'm 61 years old) and look forward to yet another tour with this group.

While on the surface it appears to be a bit pricey, when you consider that the tour is all-inclusive it makes really good sense.

The guides are all extremely well acquainted with the country and its people. You will see a Vietnam seldom experienced by the routine traveller. The food, rooms, equipment and companionship are incredible.

Trips ranges from just a couple of days to 21 days depending on where you want to go. The northern part of the country should not be missed.

From easy riding to the adventuresome rough roads, there is something for all levels of riders (my wife journeyed down the Ho Chi Minh Trail with me last year).

It's a trip you will remember the rest of your life.
