Nothing beats the wind-in-your-hair freedom of exploring Southeast Asia on two wheels. From Cambodia’s ancient temple roads to Laos’ misty mountain passes and Thailand’s endless coastal highways, a scooter puts you in control of your own legendary journey.

At Legend Travel Group, we’ve perfected the art of scooter adventures since 2008. Whether you dream of riding from Siem Reap to Battambang, cruising Route 13 in Laos, or island-hopping Thailand’s Andaman coast, our expertly designed Cambodia Tours, Laos Tours, and Thailand Tours let you experience the real Southeast Asia – safely, sustainably, and with total peace of mind.

• Licence: International Driving Permit (IDP 1949) + motorcycle endorsement required in all three countries.

Pro Tip from Tony: “Photograph your scooter from every angle before riding off – protects you from false damage claims.”

1. Never ride after drinking – zero tolerance in all three countries.

2. Stick to daylight hours in Laos (mountain roads have no lights).

3. Carry paper maps + offline Maps.me (signal disappears in rural Laos).

4. Wear long sleeves/pants on long rides – sun & gravel protection.

5. Break every 2 hours – fatigue is the #1 cause of accidents.
