BIKE RIDING LESSON IN HANOI

 

Who Can Have A Bike Riding Lesson?

This bike riding lesson is only provided to expats (not available for tourists) who want to rent scooters for riding in Hanoi as a commuter or riders who join our guided trips. However, it’s not provided as a stand-alone service. Therefore, if you want to explore Vietnam on your own on self-guided trips and want this motorbike lesson then sadly we don’t offer it. In reality, riding in Vietnam is dangerous and it requires much more than just riding ability. It’s, in fact, more like a game of coming back in one piece!

Skill Requirement

Recently, some of our clients who never ride two wheels before came and tried a lesson. However, it didn’t work. Therefore, make sure at least you ride a two-wheel vehicle before like a bicycle, an electric scooter, an automatic scooter, or a pushbike. In case you never ride any of these, rent a bicycle in Hanoi before taking this lesson. It helps save time!
