About Us

AS A MANXMAN From the ISLE OF MAN,  I’ve been surrounded by motorbikes most of my life.  As a child we’d stand by the course, watching the greats fly by, such as Joey Dunlop, Mike Hailwood and Giacomo Agostini and then in later life enjoying the many tracks and trails on dirt bikes and riding Enduros.

I fell in love with Vietnam visiting in 2008, the friendliness of the people, incredibly beautiful landscapes, incredibly tasty food, diverse cultures and even better a land perfect for Motorbike Adventures with a ride anywhere culture. 

My wife Huệ is Vietnamese and we met through our passion for Motorbike Adventures and that’s when the idea for MAV began ….

We work with a team of Vietnamese Guides and Mechanics, who are some of the most knowledgeable adventure riders in Vietnam with skills to make every day of your tour an amazing adventure you’ll remember for the rest of your lives.

My Thoughts on Motorbike Travel:

For me of all the modes of transport, a journey by motorbike is like no other.  Total freedom to roam and explore in a way few other travelers can, to stop when and where you like and for as long as you like but still able to cover distance and move to and explore new areas.

Also, being open to the elements you’re in touch with your surroundings, the smell of herbs, fruits or rice drying by the side of the road or cooking as you pass through a village, the sound of women singing in the fields or the laughter of children playing in a waterfall and the warmth of the sun on your face and of course the rain as a storm passes over head.  For me, there is no better way to enjoy travel ….
