Embark on an unforgettable biking adventure spanning 1,700 km from Saigon to Hanoi, incorporating bus, train, boat, and bike travel. Covering approximately 787 km in 14 cycling days, with ample rest breaks, our journey allows for extensive sightseeing and exploration of Vietnam. The cycling route navigates a mix of well-surfaced roads and high-quality dirt tracks.
While some days may be lengthy, experienced riders often find them suitably challenging. Cyclists preferring a faster pace can ride independently, consulting guides on the route. Yet, the average rider may prefer a more leisurely approach, capturing photos and absorbing the breathtaking scenery. Rushing through the country risks missing the rich tapestry of Vietnam's wonders.
Our meticulously planned route delves into the heart of the Vietnamese countryside flanking the main north-south artery, Highway 1, with a limited 20 km exposure to this bustling route. The true magic unfolds away from the main roads, where cycling in Vietnam becomes an enchanting experience. Here, the bicycle reigns as the primary form of rural transport, fostering encounters with locals such as beautiful girls donning flowing ao dais, cheerful school children, and hardworking farmers. The warmth of these interactions might leave you speechless with friendly greetings by day's end!
Strategically scheduled rest days offer ample time to explore key tourist sites and places of interest at your own pace. Whether soaking up the vibrant atmosphere of Nha Trang, Hoi An, Hue, or Halong Bay, you have the freedom to delve into Vietnam's essence. Furthermore, our experienced guides contribute a personal and firsthand insight into the local culture.
