Itinerary Overview
The Grand Middle Vietnam Bigbike Adventure 10 Days with The IA is built for riders who want a longer, more dynamic journey through Central Vietnam — combining coastline, historic war routes, highland culture, and deep forest passes. This loop offers a perfect mix of smooth riding days, mountain challenges, and scenic diversity.
Starting from Hoi An, the route heads north into the imperial city of Hue, then continues toward Dong Ha, where quiet coastal roads and countryside views create an easy early flow. The ride pushes deeper into the rugged limestone and jungle terrain around Phong Nha, before climbing into the historic highlands of Khe Sanh.
From here, the road turns south into the forested mountains of Tay Giang, then pushes further into the highland frontier of Ngoc Hoi and the vibrant cultural hub of Pleiku. The final days take riders down toward the coastline of Quang Ngai, before finishing in Da Nang — completing a full, scenic ride through the heart of Central Vietnam.
