Back in April 2024, Nerpa and our friends at Lost.Travel set about to do something special. Something that had never been done before. The world's first electric motorcycle adventure. A small select group of pioneers answered the call, tearing across the country using only sweet, delicious electricity and determination.
In 2026 we're getting you right back in the saddle, so grab your helmet, plug in, and get ready for an Electric Odyssey

You will need
Licence
We have two vehicle options. The cultural cruise is less powerful but does not require a license. In order to ride the larger bike in this adventure you MUST have a licence to ride a motorcycle or scooter of 125cc or bigger. In the UK that's the equivalent of a A1/A2 licence.
For other nationalities please check with your countries licensing authority. If you're unsure feel free to give us a shout. If you rock up to the start line without it, we won't be letting you ride.You will need
International
Driving PermitIn order to ride a motorcycle in Vietnam you MUST have an International Driving Permit (IDP). Specifically you need the 1968 Vienna Convention IPD. Without this you are unable
to participate. Getting one is pretty straightforward;
If you live in the UK you can pick up an IDP
for a fiver at most post offices.You will need
Hiking
Kit
A 2 day hike through the Jungle, up steep hills and in a cave in your flip flops? Behave! We're not saying you need all the bells and whistles, but sensible shoes that you can walk in, and some sporty clothes are a definite must.
