About us

Welcome to our website Tonkin Outdoor!

My name is Bertrand. After a world tour with a backpack, and an enriching professional journey that took our family to France, Tanzania, Hungary, China, and even Bangladesh, we decided to settle permanently in my wife Mai Phuong's homeland, specifically in Lai Chau, probably the most beautiful and preserved region of VIETNAM!

Vietnam has always fascinated me since my childhood. The stories I read created a deep connection with this country. By traveling extensively throughout Vietnam, I have learned to appreciate its people and their way of life.

Through Tonkin Outdoor, we aim to share this passion by offering:

Hikes off the beaten path or motorcycle experiences in this breathtaking region,
Opportunities to meet the various ethnic minorities, with over 20 different groups in Lai Chau,
Calmer and more relaxing moments for those who wish!

There's something for everyone with Tonkin Outdoor!

Get off the beaten path and come discover the unspoiled Vietnam that few people know!
