Itinerary

Day 1 HANOI. You will be met at the airport and taken on a short sightseeing tour of Hanoi.  We recommend you add a few extra days in Hanoi and the World Heritage Park of Halong Bay before the tour.

Day 2 Hue.  This morning we fly to Hue to commence the cycling tour.  We will fit you to your bikes before a welcome dinner featuring traditional music.  The city is built on the banks of the Perfume River and steeped in 3,000 years of history.

Day 3 + 4: HOI AN. We tackle the Hai Van Pass, then cycle on a great quiet road into town. The view from the top of the pass is outstanding and well worth the effort.  We have a free day to explore this delightful town with its street side cafes, artists and markets.

Day 5: QUANG NGAI.  Cycle on a delightful little road into the countryside.  Take an optional side trip to the My Lai Massacre site.

Day 6: QUI NHON. We cycle to Sa Huynh, a pleasant fishing backwater perched on a broad curve of palm fringed, golden sand.  Few tourists stop on this stretch of road, so you can enjoy the contact with friendly local Vietnamese people.

Day 7 + 8 + 9 NHA TRANG. Nha Trang is the coastal capital of Khanh Hoa province.  We have a full day to explore the islands of Nha Trang Bay by private boat, with time to visit a fishing village, an aquarium and snorkelling.

We had a fabulous time on our Vietnam trip.  Hard to contain our enthusiasm about it.  Boat trip to island from Nha Trang was great!

I can't speak highly enough of our guides Nhan and the others.  Nhan was attentive to just about every detail and we were all infected by his enthusiasm for Vietnamese culture, food and history.  This trip ranks as one of my most enjoyable vacations, and it was due in no small part to Nhan and his team.  As for the equipment, the bicycle I rented was in excellent condition, and the crew made sure to fix any problems straight away as well as clean and check it daily.

The food on this trip was exceptional.  The most memorable meal by far was Lac Canh – the tabletop barbecue place in Nha Trang.  It was loud, messy, delicious and packed with locals – I loved it!
