Rajasthan, South India, Sri Lanka and Vietnam need the opposite kit — breathable and hydration-first.
Key Riding Guidance & Highlights
Rajasthan, South India, Sri Lanka and Vietnam flip the script. Here your enemy isn't cold — it's heat, humidity and dehydration. Pack heavy for warmth on these tours and you'll suffer for it.
What changes
- Ventilated or mesh riding gear instead of insulated textile
- Moisture-wicking shirts, not cotton — cotton stays wet and chills you
- More water capacity, plus electrolyte or ORS sachets
- A packable rain shell — South India, Sri Lanka and Vietnam get sudden showers
Don't forget
Sunscreen and sunglasses, insect repellent for tropical evenings, and ventilated boots that still protect the ankle.
Our tip: Even in the heat of Rajasthan, South India, Sri Lanka and Vietnam, never compromise on protective gear. A good armoured mesh jacket keeps you safe while allowing airflow — because with the right riding kit, comfort and protection don’t have to be a trade-off.
