Your experience begins as you transition seamlessly from the bustling streets of Hanoi to its tranquil outskirts.

This direct insight into their hard work and connection to the land is both humbling and fascinating.

Beyond the fields, your bicycle trip offers a delightful glimpse into the fabric of everyday Vietnamese life.

The tour also includes visits to various spiritual landmarks: serene pagodas, ancient temples, and local shrines. These sacred sites offer moments of tranquility and provide insights into the spiritual beliefs and architectural heritage deeply embedded in Vietnamese culture.

Adding another layer of cultural richness, you'll get to explore different types of local houses. From traditional Vietnamese homes with their characteristic design to structures influenced by French colonial architecture, and the unique narrow, tube-shaped houses adapted to urban density – this architectural diversity tells a story of Hanoi's evolving residential landscape. This entire experience culminates in offering a truly valuable glimpse into a typical Vietnamese household, providing a deeper understanding of the country's social fabric. Golden Trail Travel, operating as Vietnam Cycling Tours, ensures a seamless and enriching journey.

Day: Hanoi Countryside Bicycle Trip Half Day

The half-day bike tour starts from our garage located on the outskirts of Hanoi, in one of the few villages that have managed to preserve their cultural essence and historical architecture amidst rapid urbanization. This village is renowned for its communal house, old houses, and ancestral worshiping houses, some of which have stood for hundreds of years.

As you pass through the village’s moss-covered gate and tread along the brick-paved road, you’ll enter a completely different realm—a serene, peaceful, and quaint space. The first stop, which is a must-see, is the impressive communal house, built back in 1653. This sacred place serves as the solemn setting for the village’s most significant events.

After a leisurely 15-minute stroll, you’ll reach our bike garage. Take a moment to check your bikes and enjoy a test ride. Once you set off, you’ll traverse narrow paved roads, passing through a bustling local market. It’s a delightful experience to leisurely walk your bike through the market, immersing yourself in the vibrant ambiance and observing the lively local activities.

You’ll mostly bike on back roads, crossing a river, and then reach the real countryside of Hanoi. You’ll bike for a few kilometers on the flat village lanes until you turn right, finding yourself in a peaceful area. No bike horns, crowds, or traffic jams here—just you and nature!

Keep biking on a gravel trail for about 2-3 kilometers before you cross the dike and find yourself in other rural hamlets. Take a break or explore for a bit.

After biking another 5 kilometers, you’ll arrive in a flower village, the oldest in the suburban area. The village was established about 10 years ago. The most popular flowers here are roses, chrysanthemums, gerberas, and lilies. They also grow a lot of vegetables.

Keep biking through flower fields, vegetable gardens, and rural hamlets for about 10-12 kilometers before making your final stop. The bike ride ends here at noon. You’ll be transferred back to your hotel. The Hanoi Countryside Bicycle Trip Half Day is complete..
