Cycling is one of the finest ways to discover a country where overwhelming hospitality comes as second nature and where the bicycle is the primary mode of transportation for many local families. The curiosity of villagers often translates into invitations to visit their homes, and the charming smiles of children will be sure to catch your eye. Accompanied by experienced guides, we cycle through the rice paddies and quaint villages along Highway One. We explore an ever-changing landscape of tranquil highlands and palm-fringed beaches. Our complete service includes geared bicycles, a support crew and a backup vehicle. Nights are spent in comfortable hotels, and the local cuisine is a consistent delight. To complement our cycling adventure, we visit the museums, markets and landmarks of Hanoi, Dalat, Nha Trang, Hue, Hoi An and Ho Chi Minh City. |
