Itinerary Overview
The South Vietnam Offroad Adventure 9 Days with The IA takes you through the full spectrum of Southern Vietnam — muddy Mekong trails, coastal roads, red-sand dunes, and rugged mountain tracks. Leaving Saigon, the journey heads into the Mekong Delta toward Chau Doc, where floating villages, rice paddies, and riverside dirt paths reveal the region’s authentic charm and set the tone for a true Vietnam dirtbike adventure.
From Can Tho, the route shifts toward the coastline, bringing you to Vung Tau and Mui Ne, where ocean breezes and sandy terrain create a completely new riding experience. The climb into the cool highlands of Da Lat introduces pine forests, twisting passes, and viewpoints stretching across mountain ridges.
The adventure intensifies as you push deeper into wild backroads toward Ta Dung, known for its spectacular island-scattered lake, before riding the final technical sections around Dong Xoai. The loop closes back in Saigon, completing a nine-day off-road ride full of dramatic changes in landscape, rhythm, and terrain.
