Andy Mossack reviews the Victoria Hoi An Beach Resort and Spa in Vietnam's popular Hoi An. 

Victoria Hoi An Beach Resort and Spa. Discover a serene luxury refuge from the crowds.

“Motorbikes with sidecars are my passion” remarks Claude, just as well really as I’m very snugly inside one as we bounce across the muddy tracks that crisscross the Hoi An countryside. This is an experience well and truly off your typical tourist treadmill as we trundle along by the side of rice fields and shrimp farms, negotiating the odd water buffalo and a few errant hens. Claude is the General Manager of the luxury Victoria Hoi An Beach Resort and Spa but doubles up as an unusual biker tour guide for hotel guests who want to a peak at daily local life in Vietnam’s central region.

Hotel Riu Palace. Discover 5 star luxury in Tenerife
