Overview

Embark on an enchanting 3-day easy cycling tour through the heart of the Mekong Delta, Vietnam, an immersive adventure meticulously crafted for small groups and families, perfect for exploring Southern Vietnam's verdant landscapes, intricate waterways, and authentic local life. This captivating bike tour from Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) to Chau Doc offers an unparalleled opportunity to delve deep into the "rice bowl" of Vietnam, cycling primarily on flat, tranquil back roads, through lush fruit gardens, and past bustling floating markets. Your journey begins with a convenient pick-up from your hotel in Saigon, transferring you directly to the delta's vibrant starting points.

Over three unforgettable days, you'll pedal along serene village paths, through sprawling fruit orchards heavy with ripe produce, and across charming rustic bridges, witnessing the daily rhythm of life in this incredibly fertile agricultural basin. You'll gain profound insights into various local cottage industries, from traditional poprice and rice paper making to the sweet production of coconut candy. A significant highlight of this Mekong Delta cycling adventure is undoubtedly the immersive experience of its renowned floating markets. You'll witness the lively atmosphere of Cai Be Floating Market, a kaleidoscope of colors and sounds, and later experience the expansive Long Xuyen Floating Market, one of the delta's largest and most authentic. The tour also includes serene boat trips on the mighty Mekong River and its intricate network of smaller tributaries, getting you up close with the delta's unique water-based culture. You'll enjoy a delightful homestay experience on An Binh Island in Vinh Long, offering genuine local hospitality and a chance to participate in a cooking lesson. The adventure culminates in Chau Doc, a unique city where Vietnamese, Khmer, and Cham cultures beautifully converge, providing the convenient option for onward travel to the Vietnam-Cambodia border. With comprehensive support including an experienced English-speaking cycling guide, a dedicated support vehicle for luggage, and comfortable Trek mountain bikes, this Vietnam bike tour promises an enriching blend of gentle physical activity, stunning natural beauty, and deep cultural immersion.
