Vietnam Backroads Team will pick you up at hotel lobby, then commence your trip with 1. hour of travel on the road to Mekong Delta. On arriving at a rural village, just a few km from Tan An city, pick the bike for the morning ride. We cycle into family farms, enjoy the most beautiful scenic countryside, ride on varied terrains, concrete, and dirt paths through lush vegetation, and discover the authentic local life along the hamlets. Visit some families and see villagers make handbags, hats and other things. All are made of local materials.
Break for lunch at the locally owned restaurants in My Tho city. Then relax on support vehicle transfer 1 hour to the rural Dist of Ben Tre for the afternoon ride. The rural Districts offer peaceful landscapes, amazing smooth paths, and dirt paths through water palm and vibrant villages. You will wander through hamlets, across the water channels by small ferry boats, and ride on several narrow bridges without rails, meet locals on shady pathways, and have the last ferry crossing Co Chien River to Tra Vinh.
