“A thrilling roller-coaster of a book! Gripping from start to finish.” – Joanna Lumley, British actress, TV presenter, and travel writer

Just why hadn't anyone motorcycled from India to Burma before–and how hard could it actually be?

Against his better judgment, woefully unprepared and eager to impress his new aristocratic girlfriend, Andrew Benfield sets out to find out. The ensuing adventure takes the couple across the Himalayas and through some of the wildest parts of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and Burma. Along the way, they contend with suicidal roads, tribal head-hunters, an alarming number of men with guns, and a border that hasn't been crossed in fifty years.

The Wrong Way Round is the true story of 4,000 miles of hilarious and sometimes terrifying adventure, as the odds become increasingly stacked against them making it to their destination with themselves, their motorcycle, or their relationship in one piece.

Superbly written and humorously read travelogue of a seemingly impossible 4000 mile motorbike ride from Delhi to Yangon on a Royal Enfield Bullet. The author reads so well and the accounts of Nagaland Burma Sikim and Bhutan are informative evocative and memorable. By the end I had determined finally to buy a Royal Enfield myself.

Brilliant engaging travelogue

On paper I should have loved this book but the humour didn't land with me. For me the attitudes of the author & his companion came across as very colonial & 'jolly hockey sticks'. The journey itself is fascinating & I enjoyed hearing about the places they visited but I enjoy travel books much more when I warm to the author. If the journey had been somewhere less interesting I suspect that I'd have given up out of irritation quite early on.

Interesting Journey but ..
