Vietnam for the Thrill Seeker

Vietnam is a rapidly growing tourist industry and there are plenty of hair raising activities laying in wait for the thrill seeker. Forget packing the bikinis and resort wear and fill up a bag with camping equimpment and running clothing! With dramatic mounstainscapes, rocky terrain and violently gushing rivers, the natural beauty seen on the surface of this scintillating country will be forgotten as you battle with the beast of this unforgiving terra firma.

Rock Climbing and Abseiling in Vietnam

The dramatic cliffs and rugged mountain landscapes make Vietnam an ideal destination for rock climbing and abseiling. This spectacular country offers some of the most scintillating views the planet has to offer and perched on high over the rolling terrain of lush green forests, looking out to the cobalt waters of the South China Sea is simply breathtaking. There are plenty of tour operators offering guided tours to all levels of climbers. Whether you want to tackle a challenging rock face or abseil down a cliff in an exotic waterfall location, you will find it in Vietnam.

Mountain Biking in Cambodia

The rugged terrain and rocky mountain paths make Vietnam one of the most challenging tours for mountain bikers. This extreme sport has become better regulated in recent years and it is advised you seek advice from a local tour operator and stick to the routes they have planned. There are plenty of tracks to pursue, for both novice and experienced riders, and whatever course you choose, you are guaranteed a tough yet exhilarating ride. When planning a mountain bike ride, make sure your equipment is in good condition, carry a spare inner-tube and carry plenty of water.

Sky Diving in Vietnam

If there’s a better way to view the awe-inspiring beauty of Vietnam’s dramatic landscape and enticing coastline than from the sky, I don’t know what it is! Get a panoramic bird’s eye view of the natural treasures of this majestic country whilst plunging to earth from altitudes of 10,000ft. Falling through the sky is an adrenaline inducing experience in itself, but faced with some of the most magical scenery the world has to offer, sky diving in Vietnam is simply breathtaking. If you are new to skydiving, tandem freefalls are on offer, but for experienced divers, this is a moment you’ll want to take alone.
