About the trip

This escorted cycling tour with Explore Worldwide begins amid the relentless bustle of Ho Chi Minh City, known locally as Saigon, before tracing a route east and north along Vietnam’s coast and through its historic heartlands. With daily rides on mostly flat or gently undulating terrain, the itinerary takes in the Cu Chi Tunnels, the palm-lined beaches of Mui Ne, and the ancient merchants’ town of Hoi An. Along the way, salt flats, fishing villages and Cham towers offer quieter moments.

Highlights include a boat trip through the calm waters and limestone islets of Van Phong Bay, an overnight soft-sleeper train to Hanoi, and a two-day stay in comfortable hotels that offer pools and seaside views. The finale is an overnight on a modern junk boat in Lan Ha Bay, where large windows frame the karst cliffs and bamboo boats ferry local fishermen in the early morning, before a return to Hanoi to round off the trip with a walk through the Old Quarter and a visit to the Temple of Literature.

The paced cycling distances suit riders happy to spend a fortnight on the move but who also appreciate rest days. This is a straightforward yet scenic way to engage with Vietnam’s diverse landscapes and urban contrasts without having to plan a thing in advance.
