Full Itinerary
30,000,000 Vietnamese can't be wrong - handle-bar height gives you the best view of Vietnam. Cycling through this beautiful country provides opportunities to meet the local people and experience the local culture in a way that wouldn't be possible otherwise. So come with us and get active as we travel from Hanoi to Saigon, down country lanes and over spectacular mountain passes. And all the exercise gives you the perfect excuse to indulge in delicious Vietnamese cuisine.

Days 1-2 Hanoi

Visit the imposing Ho Chi Minh mausoleum complex. There’s time afterwards to cycle the 36 streets of the Old Quarter - a shopper’s delight.

Days 3-4 Ninh Binh

Ride along rural roads to the ancient rainforests of Cuc Phuong National Park. Meet furry-faced monkeys at the Endangered Primate Rescue Centre before falling asleep to the sounds of the jungle.

Day 5 Hue

Hop back into the saddle and see the many magnificent tombs, temples, palaces and pagodas this former imperial capital is packed with. This evening, why not indulge in a banquet and a local Huda beer?

Days 6-7 Hoi An

Conquer the long Hai Van Pass and be rewarded with stunning views of the coast. Continue working those legs, cycling to Cua Dai Beach or take the chance to rest in historic Hoi An.

Day 8 Kon Tum

Meet local indigenous peoples while riding off the beaten track through the cool Central Highlands.

Day 9 Buon Ma Thuot

Knock back a ca phe sua da (iced coffee with condensed milk) in the coffee capital of Vietnam - but be warned, it packs a real punch.

Days 10-11 Nha Trang

It's an easy roll downhill to the coastal resort of Nha Trang. Relax on a boat trip to offshore islands, read a book in the shade or let the hands of a skilled masseur soothe those muscles.

Days 12-13 Dalat

Tackle challenging, winding mountain roads or take it easy and flag down a bus en route to delightful Dalat, beautifully located in a region filled with fruit orchards and coffee bean plantations.

Days 14-15 Ho Chi Minh City

After a final cycling stint, it's on to exciting Ho Chi Minh City for a well-deserved feast.

meals included:

13 Breakfasts, 1 Lunch, 2 Dinners
