Mekong Delta Cycling Tour 3 days

Shuttle from Saigon to TanAn where we fit our bikes and start our exploration of the second biggest dragon fruits in Vietnam. The highlights of the biking routes are friendly farmers shooting “hello” to you, through a village known for “hu tieu” (vermicelli) in My Tho and the splendid Vinh Trang pagoda.

On arrival the dock, take a private boat to the Mekong Riverside restaurant for lunch. Then, hop on a horse-cart to the Hương Dừa workshop in which you will learn more about how locals make the best use of coconut into a variety of products. Afterwards, we ride under a shady path to BaLai and onto BenTre city (if time permits). A/C support van will transfer to AnBinh island in VinhLong to check in our local homestay.

Enjoy your morning by participating some daily activities with the Vietnamese family, followed by breakfast being set up in natural surroundings. Bid farewell to the family members and continue our bike ride along the single track to the ferry taking us to SaDec – a lovely town which used to be famous for “L’amant” story between writer Maguerite Duras and landlord Huynh Thuy Le (in “The Lover” film).

We extend our biking day at SaDec Flower Village – known as the biggest flower town in Mekong Delta, and learn some techniques how to take care of bonsai & flowers. In this cycling route, we might see some boat building yards.

Shuttle to LongXuyen for lunch at the crocodile land. Afternoon, we cycle on the ricefields or along the branch of CanTho River (one of nine-dragon rivers in the Mekong delta) to PhongDien where we can take a short ride in the van to CanTho Center for overnight at hotel.

Embark a motorized boat trip to CaiRang Floating Market, a bustling one on the river of CanTho. Explore numerous rural canals before getting back on our steel-horse from DongThanh all the way to TamBinh. Your lunch will be served at one of the most hospitable farmer’s home where you can have a quick shower before a 3-hour ride in van to bring you back to Saigon around 5pm.
