More and more travelers make a beach vacation directly to Phu Quoc Island due to its International operated airport. Instead of connecting domestic flights in Ha Noi, or Ho Chi Minh, tourists will get a straight flight. The beauty of Phu Quoc Island is often compared to the size of Thailand's Phuket, but without the crowds and development. Warm climate, blue and sandy beaches, Phu Quoc has become a new destination and undeveloped island.
If you interest in bicycle tours? and you will be beaten up by bicycle before you relax on sandy beach. Why don't you contact Vietnam Cycling Tours.
Be met at your location in Saigon with the team of Vietnam Backroads. Our team with a support vehicle to drive you to the rural area in Long An. Our pro-bike guides will help you check your bikes by adjusting saddle heights and informing the rules of the roads before we off the beaten track. Tan An to My Tho is not the long way for morning biking, but the vibrant countryside, farmland of dragon fruits, and smooth bike routes are more important than distance. Take it easy and spend more time experiencing rural lives. A very delicious restaurant in town where you enjoy lunch before we bike through the home of coconut trees in the afternoon. Make some stops at family workshops producing coconut oils and jelly. Taste seasonal fresh fruits at orchards or small markets in the countryside before we have a ferry ride to Tra Vinh city.
It is said that the Khmer people and their community began in Mekong Delta as small fishing villages and inhabited for centuries before the arrival of Vietnamese. Tra Vinh is a small town, and it is not a touristy destination for tourists traveling by bus. So it is tranquil at night. Everything seems to be closed early and almost asleep. The province is considered the homeland of Khmer, and there are numerous Khmer temples in town and the rural hamlets. You will have a long day to experience the lifestyle of Khmer nowadays and learn its history in the past time. This is the opportunity you can ride more deeply to the traditional villages of Khmer; ride past thatch houses, take some photos, and visit colorful temples. After we have lunch at the best restaurant in a small town, a transfer takes us to Tich Thien village, where we continue biking through some islands with some ferry ride on small creeks. We will get on the support vehicle in the outskirts of Binh Minh, driving the city center to check in the hotel.
Can Tho is the center as it is the capital city of Vietnam's Mekong Delta. It's well-known with floating markets of Cai Rang and Phong Dien, which is not far from the city. You are going to see the most bustling Cai Rang market. After your breakfast at the hotel, then get on board the Ninh Kieu pier for a 40-minute motorboat ride. You can see the water taxi, wooden cargo boat, and many commercial sampans sampan boats advertise what they are selling and buying by loudspeaker on this short boat ride. Then you can see the Cai Rang floating market in action before you get off the boat and carry on your cycling vacation to Rach Gia. Pedal on narrow paths along natural creeks where you could meet friendly people along country roads who love to have their picture taken with you. There are many sampan boat factories along country roads, fishing nets alongside rivers, so you could stop and see how it works. It depends on how much time for today, so your biking guide will figure out a transfer to Rach Gia in the afternoon.
All services have been well-arranged by the Vietnam Backroads team; tickets are on hands, a transfer to the Super Dong docks in the morning. After your breakfast, get on our re-arranged transfer vehicle to Super Dong dock within 10 minutes of driving from your hotel. Get on the modern speedboat, which departs at 8:00 AM. Super Dong high-speed boat ride takes 2 hours and 15 minutes to reach the Bai Vong dock. End of service.
Note: If you have booked the hotels/resorts on your own, arranged! Please contact them to have you picked up at Bai Vong dock. Another option is to get taxi to the hotel on your way. It does not include the trip.
It was a fabulous trip!
Hi!
We just completed our tour and I wanted to provide some feedback. First, we had an amazing time. Danny was a terrific guide and took excellent care of us. He was so knowledgeable about everything! He also adjusted the trip to fit our daughter’s ability. Our driver was also wonderful. He took such good care of us at every stop.
I did want to note that the hotel in Can Tho was terrible. It was dirty and the breakfast was horrible. I’ve stayed in many simpler hotels that were clean & efficient. This place clearly was a nice hotel at some point but was tired and dirty. I think I would have preferred a nicer spot or even a comfortable home stay.
The coco riverside was a treat! I would recommend it to anyone!
Thank you for arranging everything. 03 November - 03 December 2024
