Our cycling and walking tour of Vietnam was amazing. We saw so much and had so many experiences in the time we had that it is hard to believe it all. The guides Thang, Bao and Trung were so well organised that it all went like clockwork with the great drivers who were always there to pick us up right on time.From the floating markets to the great restaurants to the home visits, cooking class, coffee making experience, kayaking, boat ride at Tam Coc- it was all fantastic.The guides were very knowledgeable about the various parts of the country that we visited but they were also generous in sharing thir own and their families experiences of life in Vietnam over past generations. They are also very passionate about their love of their country.The accommodation and food was great. We loved experiencing the delicious Vietnamese food.The itinerary worked well and was flexed in some cases to better fit the circmstances. The managing of 2 parallel groups (cyclists and walkers) was done well where we joined up at various points to do joint activities.

Thang and Trung were excellent guides. From the moment we initially met the lads to the last day of the tour, they were always there. They were so helpful, it was wonderful to know everything was taken care of. We learnt a lot of local knowledge from them.We would have no hesitation recommending others to join the Vietnam Essentials Tour. Thank you

Trip was fantastic from start to finish. Great team - friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. Fabulous way to get to see and know a country. Would do it again in a heartbeat! Thanks Grasshopper!

The Grasshopper Shikoku tour is a trip of a lifetime. Cycling through local villages and beautiful landscapes with a fun group and thoughtful guides created the perfect combination of culture and activity. Being relatively new to cycling, I found some of the mountain climbs to be especially rewarding and memorable. I was impressed with the routes Grasshopper designed, taking lesser traveled roads and always making a point to experience local Japanese food and culture. The hotels along the way were excellent, with hot springs to help relax after an adventurous day. Highly recommend anyone, no matter your fitness level, or whether you're solo or in a group, to join this tour if you can, you won't regret it.

We had a fantastic five days with Grasshopper in Northern Laos. We hiked and biked in the most stunning scenery. We stayed in outstanding hotels. We spent a day on a boat going down the Mekong. It was an amazing experience and our guide looked after us beautifully.

Having never been on a Grasshopper tour before I was unsure what to expect. The experience far exceeded my expectation with a nice mix of cycling and culture. Exploring small quiet roads was a delight which typically included stunning views. All your needs were taken care of as a van follows you around with your gear, plenty of food and drink as well as the usual cycling tools. We also go to visit temples, experience paper making and even made soba noodles. The accommodation was a mix of traditional Japanese as well as more international-style hotels all of which were very clean and pleasant to sleep in. The food was Japanese and delicious although the breakfasts became a little monotonous. It would have been nice to have cereal and a good cup of coffee or two occasionally. Our guides were fantastic and lots of fun. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they were constantly making sure the bikes were clean and ready for use. I brought my own bike and they even cleaned this for me - how good is that? I would highly recommend this tour and would happily sign up for another Grasshopper trip in the future.

Shikoku Waratah’s Tour September/October 2022 A great tour organised once again through Adam - my sixth with AdamShikoku is a wonderful place to cycle - spectacular scenery, mainly quiet “car free” roads. However there were some long hills- the great scenery. And the food was fantastic. The local team - led by Norman (an American who lives in Japan - fluent Japanese), Reiko his wife and the expert mechanic and Dale were the best team I’ve had anywhere. Nothing was too much trouble everything just “happened” We had a great group of riders - all of us only knowing an half or less of the other riders; but the group just « clicked ».

This was my third time with Grasshopper and I cannot recommend them enough - every member of the team - from those helping with bookings to the exceptionally knowledgeable and passionate guides, to partners (accommodation, restaurants) is amazing. If you want a memory that's personalised and special, Grasshopper Adventures is the right team to deliver it.
