I would like to complement you guys at Pedaltours for a perfectly organized tour.

I especially liked the Saigon Morin in Hue (huge room with lots of character), the Vinh Hung Resort in Hoi An and the Novotel in Nha Trang.  I really appreciated that the hotels on rest days were within easy walking distance of many attractions.

Guides were OUTSTANDING!  One of the best support teams I have ever had on a bike trip. Nhan provided so much insight into the culture and history of Vietnam.  He would often stop along the route and explain things – a wedding, a funeral, a rubber plantation etc.  A staff member was at every turn – it was impossible to get lost.

I loved being greeted along the road by adorable, smiling children.  I always felt safe and welcome in their country.  It was fascinating to see so much every day – rice farms, shrimp farms, families on motor bikes, water buffalo, all kinds of animals.  Riding elephants was a blast!
