A couple of months ago, I bought a $300 Chinese knock-off Honda Win motorcycle (~100cc) in Ho Chi Minh City and did pretty much the same route as this guy, albeit with much fewer stops. It was pretty incredible. Definitely the best way to experience Vietnam.
A similar highway exists in Thailand, the Mae Hong Son Loop[1], which I also did on motorcycle while I was backpacking Southeast Asia. Also highly recommended.

- donquichotte 11y agoGlad to hear that it's still possible to do motorcycle tours in VN! I did a northern loop in 2011, it was my first real motorcycle experience: http://advrider.com/index.php?threads/7-day-north-vietnam-ride.753458/ http://advrider.com/index.php?threads/7-day-north-vietnam-ri...
