What’s up, adventure junkies and fellow travelistas! Let me drop some knowledge on you: Vietnam is the unexpected home of the elusive, exotic vintage Vespa. Picture this: discovering these classic scooters here is like finding out your grandma rocks a leather jacket and dances to hip hop! These vintage Vespas, initially brought over by the French during their colonization days (a kind of family travel, French-style), were the Mercedes-Benz of scooters at the time.


Even when imports were shut down in the '70s, these slick, vintage Vespa models remained, transforming Vietnam into a living Vespa museum. Today, riding a vintage Vespa through Vietnam isn’t just a trip—it’s an experience that takes you back in time, blending old-world charm with the thrill of modern adventure travel.


So, hop on, and let’s rev up this vintage adventure across Vietnam. Every ride is a journey through history, culture, and the timeless allure of the vintage Vespa. Join me as we explore the hidden alleys, iconic cityscapes, and scenic countryside on these legendary two-wheelers. Trust me, this is one adventure you won’t want to miss!
