The Hoi An City-based Rose travel service agency said that the 10-day tour will start from Hanoi and wind through the provinces of Hoa Binh, Nghe An, Quang Binh, Quang Tri, Hue and Hoi An City.

Tourists themselves will drive the 1960s-manufactured military jeeps left over from the end of the American war in 1975.

“It’s the largest tour that our company has organized since our debut in 2010. Tourists really want to experience the military jeeps on the roads in Vietnam,” said Vu Xuan Hao.

She said the agency has decorated and repaired the old jeeps to provide a safe service for tourists.

As scheduled, two mechanics will accompany the tourists on the 1,500km journey.
