You Need Travel Insurance!
Make sure you wear a freaking helmet! Trust me. A motorbike landed on my head and I would not be writing this if it weren’t for that helmet.
Also, make sure you have travel insurance, and don’t scrimp on it either! We recommend world nomads for their good adventure travel coverage. The other option you can check out is Save wings, although their coverage for adventure travel is minimal.
If you’re planning on driving a motorbike through Vietnam, it’s important that you have the right type of licence for it in order for your insurance to fully cover you.
