Day 1:

Cycle Saigon - Tra Vinh

You are met and picked up at hotels, you'll transfer an hour's driving to this town for a lovely morning ride. We ride on rice paddies, corn fields, and dragon fruit pathways. Many break stops for fruit and water. Lunch will be served at a restaurant in My Tho city. The afternoon ride is straightforward. Your guide will choose the shady concrete pathways through water palms and local markets. You will regularly stop in the roadside for short breaks for water, snacks, and fruits and relax in hammocks. Our day ends at the countryside of Tra Vinh after a ferry crossing.

Day 2:

Tra Vinh - Can Tho

The scenery on the pathway to Can Tho is terrific. Depending on group cycling ability, a tailored particular route is planned for a long day, passing numerous villages of Khmer, colorful Khmer temples, and rice fields on the horizon. We break for lunch in a small town. Then leisurely afternoon bicycle ride on a small track along the riverside through many islands and passing local fruit orchards. A big chance is to break 30 minutes on small ferry boating through some islands before we end up our today's ride at Binh Minh rural Dist and have a transfer to Can Tho

Day 3:

Can Tho - Long Xuyen

After a very early breakfast at the hotel, we will take a boat trip to the famous Cai Rang floating market before cycling on the narrow country road, crossing small natural rivers, and riding alongside some rivers and authentic villages. We stop for a coffee break at Phong Dien. Then we will ride on tiny concrete paths to Tho Lai alongside many small/big rivers. By cycling, you can see rivers used to travel or transport in the area, such as wooden cargo boats, water taxis, grocery boats, and rowing boats moving busily up and down.

Your lunch is reserved at local as planned. Then we take dirt track trails through agricultural irrigation canals to the rural area of Long Xuyen city. The afternoon ride shows farmers raising ducks on farming lands and canals. Besides these activities, we can see some frog and eel farms at the home of locals. We get on the van for a short transfer to Long Xuyen 

Day 4:

Long Xuyen - Chau Doc

The fourth day's ride is more challenging than the past three days. The type of local's living we see today is also more characteristic of the places you have been and seen. In the morning ride, you will cycle on a quiet country road through local factories making bricks and local markets and meet locals who rarely see Westerners at their homes. After lunch, to avoid getting hot at noontime, we will have a transfer to Ba Chuc killing field for a short visit. Then we continue cycling on natural hilly back roads through small villages and picturesque pagodas and stop at Tra Su Natural Reserve. A boat trip will take you through the forest with trekking around the area. After the boat ride, we continue to ride on the path to Sam Mountain, where we get on an A/C van for a short transfer to Chau Doc. If time permits, the ride will continue along the border to Chau Doc.

Day 5:

Chau Doc – HCM

Chau Doc border town is small, and it's the gateway to Cambodia, either waterways or overland. The most exciting thing that travelers shouldn't be missed is floating villages and Cham villages. Explore the daily life of people living in a floating village. You will be stopped at fish farming, a floating house of locals, and walk around Cham village. Then we go back to the hotel for check out. Lunch en route on the way to Saigon. Mekong Biking Tours
