Set out on Bicycle for a day of adventure and discovery across rural Vietnam
Join us for a full day of adventure and discovery across rural Vietnam with a bicycle.
This itinerary is our most complete day tour, covering over 50 km of small country roads, cycling through picturesque scenery typical of the region, and stopping for several visits along the way.
The Program
- Cross Bridges constructed from bamboo and wood
- Visit historical points of interest; forgotten tunnels built by the Vietminh during the war.
- Meet with a family of farmers and visit their traditional home made out of wood.
- Make several ferry crossings on the Thu Bon Rivier
- Enjoy a meal in a small local « restaurant » to sample a specialty made from rice noodles. (vegetarian meals available upon request)
- Learn how the different varieties of rice pancakes are made
- Pass through the ancient village of weavers where you will meet a family who continues using weaving machines dating from colonial times.
- Stop at a small country market. Discover and sample some of the local products.
- Depending on the season and scheduled activities in the countryside during your visit, many other surprises await you during your tour. You might be lucky enough to plant or harvest rice, see peanuts being hotly pressed to make peanut oil, or be invited to a ceremony.
- The Vietnamese people living in the countryside are always very hospitable and happy to welcome foreigners.
- Your guide will lead you on quiet little paths, away from traffic. Sometimes you will pedal in the middle of the rice fields, then cross small villages where curious children might call out some happy “hellos”. A few kilometres later, you will follow a river and arrive in the middle of crops of tobacco, peppers, papayas and other fruits and vegetables. You will cross paths under the shade of the forest, and observe buffaloes basking in the mud.
- This tour is truly unique and offers you an exclusive itinerary through the Vietnamese countryside.
