Hey guys,
I'm trying to plan out a rough route for the SE Asia part of my RWT. I land in Bangkok in October and then fly strait to Han Oi to buy a motorcycle and start my adventure. I'm looking for some advice on islands that are relatively easy to get to with a motorcycle (125cc) either by longtail or ferry. I plan on spending 4-5 months in the region ending in Singapore before heading to NZ. I 'm a beach bum at heart and plan on spending much of my time on islands and by the coast. I am aware that for me to travel to many of these Islands I'll will have to leave my bike at a guesthouse, friend or reliable mechanic, storage, etc. If anyone has any experience or suggestions for this it would be greatly appreciated. What islands have you taken your bikes to and which were the best? Thanks!
So far the Islands that I am most interested in are:
Vietnam:
Phu Quoc
Cat Ba Island
Cambodia:
Ko Tonsay
Ko Russie
Koh Rong
Koh Tang
Koh Ru
Laos:
Don Dhet
Don Kohn
Don Khong
Thailand:
Southern Andamans
Koh Phi Phi
Ko Pha Ngan
ko Tao
Ko Kradan
Similans
Sirins
Ko Ngai
Ko Phra Thong
Ko Lipe
Ko Muk
Malaysia:
Redang
