TRADITIONAL VIETNAM (Adventure Tour)
Set out on Bicycle for a day of adventure and discovery across rural Vietnam
RESERVATIONS
After the tranfert by minibus (45 mn) you will cross with local ferry the Thu Bon River to the Duy Son village near the My Son sanctuary. Your bicycle tour discovery of the authentic Vietnam you’ve always dreamed of begins here!
Together, we will travel across immense rice fields set in between the river and the mountains where the Vietnamese in their traditional conical hats, continue to cultivate rice using the same methods as their ancestors did hundreds of years ago. We will discover local handicrafts, learn the secret of making incense, weaving methods that date back to colonal times, including the weaving of linen, and the weaving of traditional sleeping mats, still used in the countryside today.
A local village family will welcome us to share their tea and visit their home, a traditional wooden structure. You will have the opportunity to learn the local history and customs of the countryside, where life is far from the bustling cities and sights.
This tour, far from the usual tourist itineraries, puts you in direct contact with the Vietnamese people. You will take the time to meet these welcoming people, and share unique moments. Stops vary from tour to tour, depending on chance meetings and village activities.
This tour includes crossing the river on a local ferry, visiting the crafts workshops, crossing a floating bridge, and a bamboo bridge, and several other stops along the way.
