Cela signifie que les résidents des États-Unis, du Royaume-Uni, de l'UE et de l'Australie n'ont actuellement pas besoin de visa pour la Thaïlande et peuvent demander un visa pour le Cambodge et le Laos à la frontière. Cependant, ils auront besoin d'un visa pour le Vietnam, car ils séjournent plus de 15 jours dans le pays. Veuillez également vous assurer que votre passeport comporte au moins six pages vierges avant votre départ. Contactez d'abord l'ambassade ou le consulat du Vietnam dans votre pays d'origine.

THAÏLANDE (Chiang Mai) – LAOS – VIETNAM – CAMBODGE – THAÏLANDE (Pattaya)

(Distance : environ 8 100 km / 5 000 miles)

Important — Thailand–Cambodia land border (updated August 2026)

All official land crossings between Cambodia and Thailand, including the Pailin crossing used on day 28 below, have been closed since June 2025 and remain closed. Western governments also advise against travel within 50 km of that border. The day 28 stage as written below therefore cannot currently be ridden.

Departures are being reviewed and this stage will be adjusted. Please Contactez-nous before booking so we can confirm exactly how the return to Thailand will be handled on your dates. If you are looking for Cambodia specifically, our 15-day Real Cambodia Ride starts and finishes in Phnom Penh and is unaffected.

Jour 1. Chiang Mai, Arrivée

Upon arrival, we will meet you at the airport and drive you to the hotel (recommended arrival to Chiang Mai, no later than 3 pm). At 5 pm, we meet for a welcome briefing and motorcycle handover at our Service Centre. Ride back to the hotel so you can get familiar with your motorcycle and local riding environment, etc. Overnight in Chiang Mai. Hotel: Dusit Princess Hotel

Jour 2. Chiang Mai - Chiang Khong (Thaïlande) 297 km

In the morning, we start our motorcycle adventure. We ride in the eastern direction, passing the Doi Luang National Park, hot springs, etc. The first part will be on the main road, an enjoyable ride with nice twists and bends. In Chiang Rai, we will visit the White Temple, one of north Thailand’s main attractions. In the early afternoon, we ride along the magic Mekong River (mother of all rivers), which in this area forms the border between Thailand and Laos. We will meet the Mekong River often during our tour. Towards the end of the day, we arrive in Chiang Khong, which is the destination of our first riding day. We park our motorcycles and enjoy the river view and Laos on the other side. Overnight in Chiang Khong. Hotel: Teak Garden Riverfront

Jour 3. Chiang Khong - Oudomxay (Thaïlande / Laos) 295 km

A bit earlier start today, the goal is to be at Thai Immigration when they open at 8 am. After clearing the Thai border formalities, we will cross the Thai–Lao Friendship Bridge. On the Lao side, our Lao tour guide greets us and helps us with the border formalities. The immigration and customs procedures are always an experience. It simply takes time, so relax and be patient. Don’t forget! In Laos, we drive on the right side of the road! We have lunch in Luang Namtha and then continue the remaining stretch to Oudomxai. The road is quite good and the scenery is great as we are passing through a couple of villages, where it is time to stop and “mingle” with the locals. The first stretch of today to Luang Namtha is the main transit road between Thailand and China, and normally has a bit more traffic. After lunch, the road is more provincial, with plenty of cures and villages. Part of this stretch is full of trucks due to the high-speed railway construction between China and Vientiane. Once the high-speed train is in service, this part of Laos will change a lot, especially Luang Prabang. Overnight at a lovely resort in Oudomxai. Hotel: Charming Lao

Jour 4. Oudomxay - Muang Khua - Dien Bien Phu (Laos / Vietnam) 205 km

Our motorcycle adventure continues in an eastern direction on low-traffic-density provincial roads to the Vietnamese border. On the first stretch, we ride along the Nam Phak River and enjoy the scenery. At Pak Nam Noy, we start climbing up the mountains towards the Vietnam border. This is a remote area of Laos; the scenery is spectacular, but there are not many villages. Not much is happening at the Laos / Vietnam border, said that it can still take some time to work through the paperwork. Our Vietnamese guide will wait for us at the Tay Trang border crossing, and together we will ride to Dien Bien Phu. You will notice how things have changed once you cross into Vietnam, with different landscapes, more people, villages, and traffic. The Battle of Dien Bien Phu was the climactic confrontation of the First Indochina War between the French Union’s French Far East Expeditionary Corps and Viet Minh communist-nationalist revolutionaries. We can visit the Dien Bien Phu Museum, the notorious hill Hotel: Muong Thanh Grand Dien Bien Phu Hotel

Jour 5. Dien Bien - Sapa (Vietnam) 294 km

Today we have quite a long ride ahead of us; we will pass endless villages, with plenty of photo opportunities. Toward the end of the day, we start climbing up the mountain, and the scenery gets better by the hour. After an early breakfast, we depart and follow the NR12 to Muong Lay, then head up to the Taphin plateau to conquer a scenic and stunning road through the Sin Ho Valley. We stop at the Sin Ho Market, which is more lively and crowded if we arrive early. We continue this less traveled road until Lai Chau and drive the winding road to Sapa with a photo stop at the O Qui Ho pass at 2005 meters, from where we have a spectacular view of Phan Xia Pang, 3,143 meters, Vietnam’s and South East Asia’s highest mountain.

The Hoàng Liên mountain range dominates the area with a dramatic backdrop for many scenic treks. There are many things to do in Sapa. You can do an optional ride in the area. Or you simply chill out. For a remote small town in northern Vietnam’s mountains, Sapa is surprisingly modern. It offers a great variety of gastronomic options – from local street food and Vietnamese specialties to high-quality Italian restaurants and wine bars. Not to mention the many local cafes that serve super robust Vietnamese coffee. If you are up to it, take the cabin to the top of Phan Xia Pang or simply stroll around the town. Overnight in Sapa. (Laundry service possible) Hotel: BB Sapa Resort and Spa

Jour 7. Sapa - Ha Giang (Vietnam) 240 km

After breakfast, we ride into the Red River valley to Lao Cai, on the Chinese border. If we have time, head along the river to the main border gate with China. There’s a strangely compelling atmosphere here, as informal trade passes from country to country, oftentimes on the backs of bicycles pushed across the border by older women. Sapa and Ha Giang are gateways to the outstanding mountain scenery of Vietnam’s northwest and extreme north, respectively. But the journey between these two mountain towns is just as thrilling as the landscape that lies beyond them. Connecting two of the most mountainous provinces in the country (Lào Cai and Hà Giang), this motorcycle route straddles the Chinese border, carving a meandering course over mountain ranges and along river valleys. Hotel: Trường Xuân Resort

Jour 8. Ha Giang - Meo Vac (Vietnam) 199 km

The road from Meo Vac to Ha Giang (via Dong Van) is considered one of the most remarkable journeys. You have to pass the Ma Pi Lang Pass to reach Dong Van.

Dong Van Town is located in the heart of Dong Van Rock Plateau, which was recognized as part of the Global Geo-Park Network. If time permits, you can take a short walk to wander the ancient streets lined with Hmong clay bricks built centuries ago. Hotel: Hoa Cuong Hotel

If we are lucky enough, our team will return to Hanoi at 4:30 pm before the crazy rush hour and visit some of the historical sites such as Ho Chi Minh’s Mausoleum, Presidential Palace, St. Joseph’s Cathedral, and Ngoc Son Temple. Overnight in a 4-star hotel in the Old Quarter. Please note: All participants must apply for a visa for Laos for the second border crossing, as the border we use does not allow a Visa on Arrival.

In 1873, Hanoi was conquered by the French, and from 1883 to 1945, the city was the administrative center of French Indochina.

After checking into our hotel, the rest of the day is yours to relax or explore. You can unwind by the beach, visit the famous Sanctuary of Truth, or enjoy Pattaya’s vibrant food and nightlife scene. This marks one of the final stretches of our incredible journey, so tonight is a great opportunity to celebrate the adventure, reminiscing about the unforgettable rides and experiences we’ve shared along the way.

Jour 30. Pattaya, Départ (Thaïlande)

Petit-déjeuner à l'hôtel. Transfert vers l'aéroport international de Suvarnabhumi ou séjour à la découverte de Pattaya et de ses environs. Fin de la tournée

VISA THAÏLANDE
La plupart des nationalités n'ont pas besoin de visa pour entrer en Thaïlande pour un séjour ne dépassant pas 30 jours. Cependant, il est important de noter que la réglementation thaïlandaise en matière d'immigration exige que les passeports restent valides au moins six mois après la durée prévue du séjour.
De plus, il est important de noter que les autorités thaïlandaises de l'immigration n'accordent un séjour sans visa que pour une durée maximale de 15 jours en Thaïlande si les touristes entrent dans le pays par voie terrestre (depuis la Birmanie) plutôt que par un aéroport international. Par conséquent, après un retour par voie terrestre de Birmanie, vous ne bénéficierez que d'un séjour sans visa de 15 jours maximum en Thaïlande.

VISA POUR LE MYANMAR (ex-Birmanie), LE LAOS ET LE CAMBODGE
Pour le Myanmar (ancienne Birmanie), seul le visa à l'arrivée est possible à la frontière de Mae Sai, ainsi que pour le Laos, comme en Thaïlande. Le Cambodge propose également des visas à l'arrivée, très faciles à obtenir. Les frais de visa à l'arrivée pour une journée au Myanmar sont d'environ 15 US$ (600 THB) pour le Laos environ 30 US$ pour 30 jours (1 200 THB) et pour le Cambodge environ 35 US$ pour 30 jours (1 800 THB).

VISA POUR LE VIETNAM
Tout d’abord, sachez qu’aujourd’hui, il n’est plus pertinent de se référer au Vietnam.
Pour faciliter la délivrance de visas par l'ambassade ou la mission permanente du Vietnam, il est conseillé aux personnes ayant réservé un voyage de joindre à leur demande de visa une « lettre de confirmation de visa » du voyagiste à Hanoï responsable de l'organisation du voyage. Nous obtiendrons cette lettre de confirmation et vous la ferons parvenir. Cette lettre de confirmation implique que le voyagiste est responsable de votre séjour au Vietnam et vous évite tout interrogatoire supplémentaire par l'ambassade du Vietnam.
Veuillez noter que les ambassades vietnamiennes ne prennent généralement pas en compte les dates exactes de voyage, mais se contentent d'apposer un tampon sur les visas valables trois mois et autorisant une seule entrée au Vietnam au cours de ces trois mois. Par conséquent, nous vous ferons parvenir la lettre de confirmation de visa environ un mois et demi avant le début du voyage afin de garantir que la validité de votre visa se prolonge au-delà de votre séjour au Vietnam. Après réception de votre lettre de confirmation de visa, veuillez contacter l'ambassade ou la mission permanente du Vietnam la plus proche pour obtenir les formulaires de demande de visa. Remplissez-les en trois exemplaires, joignez une photo d'identité à chaque exemplaire et joignez une copie imprimée de la lettre de confirmation de visa à votre demande. Veuillez vous référer à la liste des missions diplomatiques du Vietnam pour une liste de toutes les ambassades, missions permanentes et consulats généraux du Vietnam.

ASSURANCES – THAÏLANDE, LAOS ET CAMBODGE
Les motos sont couvertes par une assurance responsabilité civile obligatoire conformément à la législation thaïlandaise, mais ne bénéficient pas d'une assurance tous risques, car celle-ci n'est pas disponible en Thaïlande pour les motos de location. Le participant au voyage assume donc un risque maximal de 175 000 THB en cas de dommages totaux à sa moto. Le participant n'est pas responsable des pannes techniques du moteur ou de la boîte de vitesses, ni de l'usure.

ASSURANCE – VIETNAM
Les motos sont couvertes par une assurance responsabilité civile obligatoire uniquement pour la Thaïlande, et non pour le Vietnam, car la couverture de notre compagnie d'assurance thaïlandaise ne s'étend pas au-delà de la Thaïlande. Par conséquent, le participant assume l'intégralité des risques en cas d'accident, qu'il soit causé par lui-même ou par un tiers. Veuillez également noter qu'en cas d'accident, l'adversaire ne sera probablement pas assuré du tout. Par conséquent, le participant encourt un risque maximal de 175 000 THB en cas de dommages totaux à sa moto.

FACULTATIF
Moyennant un supplément de 9 000 THB, nous proposons une assurance tous risques limitée avec une responsabilité civile/participation maximale de 35 000 THB (au lieu de 175 000 THB) pour le participant en cas de dommages causés à sa moto. Pour les dommages mineurs, nous prenons en charge les frais de réparation à la fin du voyage, ce qui facilite la gestion de ces petits incidents sur place. Les participants qui optent pour une assurance tous risques devront également verser une caution de 35 000 THB en espèces au début du voyage.

Il est également important de savoir que le participant est responsable des dommages causés à sa moto en cas d'accident causé par un tiers. En Thaïlande, l'assurance responsabilité civile ne couvre généralement que les dommages corporels causés à un tiers et ne couvre pas les dommages causés au véhicule d'un tiers.

MONNAIE THAÏLANDAISE / CARTES DE CRÉDIT
Les cartes American Express, Visa et Mastercard sont largement acceptées en Thaïlande. Les paiements en espèces ne sont acceptés qu'en baht thaïlandais (la monnaie thaïlandaise). Il est facile de changer les principales devises étrangères en bahts thaïlandais grâce à des bureaux de change officiels dans la plupart des lieux touristiques. On trouve des distributeurs automatiques de billets presque partout. Veuillez éviter les chèques en euros, car ils ne sont encaissés que dans les grandes banques.

MONNAIE DU LAOS / CARTES DE CRÉDIT
Le meilleur moyen de se rendre au Laos est d'utiliser le bath thaïlandais. Au Laos, le bath thaïlandais est accepté partout. Un bath thaïlandais coûte environ 250 kips (environ 1 000 000 ₹). On trouve des distributeurs automatiques presque partout.

MONNAIE CAMBODGE / CARTES DE CRÉDIT
Le meilleur moyen de se rendre au Cambodge est d'utiliser le US$. Au Cambodge, ce billet est accepté partout. Il vaut environ 4 000 riels cambodgiens. On trouve des distributeurs automatiques presque partout.

MONNAIE VIETNAMIENNE / CARTES DE CRÉDIT
Les distributeurs automatiques de billets ne sont pas encore très répandus au Vietnam. Seuls les grands hôtels et parfois l'intérieur du pays acceptent les cartes de crédit les plus courantes comme American Express et Visa. Cependant, dans de nombreux endroits, les cartes de crédit ne sont pas acceptées du tout. Il est donc conseillé d'emporter des dollars américains, de préférence en petites coupures, car de nombreux commerces à l'intérieur du pays ne peuvent pas facilement rendre la monnaie pour un billet de 100 dollars. Vous pouvez également changer certaines devises étrangères en dongs vietnamiens (VND), car les Vietnamiens n'utilisent que leur monnaie. Pour un petit achat en dollars américains, la monnaie sera généralement rendue en dongs vietnamiens (VND). Cette monnaie peut ensuite être utilisée pour acheter une boisson, laisser un petit pourboire, etc. Les chèques de voyage sont inutiles, car seules la Banque vietnamienne d'investissement et de commerce (VICB) ou la Banque vietnamienne du commerce extérieur (VFTB) de Saïgon les échangent, ce qui implique des procédures longues et fastidieuses. Cependant, il est désormais possible de changer des dollars américains et même des euros en monnaie locale dans la plupart des aéroports et de nombreux autres lieux. Nous vous recommandons de changer certains dongs vietnamiens (VND) déjà présents dans votre pays d'origine.
