Cycling Chau Doc - Mekong Delta - Saigon

Our team will pick up at hotels in Chau Doc then we will spend more than an hour motorboat learning how to raise catfish at the floating village and the life of poor people living on their small boats as their home. Then you will have easy and relaxing cycling along the meandering banks of the Mekong River, from village to village, on quiet cycling paths where you can see farmers growing vegetables, watering rice plants, and fishing on natural creeks. A big surprise to you is an impressive architectural monastery where you cycle to and take a little time to explore the beautiful Mekong Delta's countryside and cross the Upper River before a transfer to Cao Lanh City.

In the morning, you can ride through villages of flowers, magnificent trees, ornamental flower beds, and fragrant flowers in the garden attract butterflies and bees. Stop for lunch at the house of Mr. Huynh Thuy Le in Sadec town, the central character in Marguerite Duras's autobiographical novel, 'L'Amant'. It considers a highlighted Site in the village of Sadec. After lunch, we leave Sadec for Can Tho City. We cycle on paths through scenic countryside, tiny villages with many rice powder mills, and past rice fields.

After breakfast at the hotel, you will have a boat ride to the Cai Rang floating market before an hour's transfer to Phung Hiep for today's ride. We will continue to bike through farming villages, lakes, and to hamlets of Khmer people. We will end up of today cycling at Bat Pagoda. Have a short transfer to the hotel.

The highlight of today's cycling is to ride intensely into removed villages, where foreigners are rarely seen. We will have two ferries crossing at noontime before we cycle through rice paddy to Tra Vinh City.

Your last ride will begin at the riverside of the Mekong River after a short drive from your hotels. You will have the pleasure of riding through the coconut farming lands of Ben Tre and seeing such happy people with their daily lives on their ground.
