Mekong Delta Cycling Adventure

08h00 Our guide & driver will pick up at your hotel in Saigon & transfer to the Mekong Delta. Upon reaching the Rach Ram River, we’ll board a motorized boat to cruise along the Mekong River’s branches, passing through local villages and tiny river islands. The 2-hour cruise will lead us to Cai Be, where a stop for lunch awaits in a beautiful orchard on the island.
At the orchard, the host will graciously serve you “longan spirit,” a local beverage he has crafted himself. Alongside, indulge in deep-fried elephant ear fish, spring rolls, and other local delicacies that are sure to make you feel content and ready for a siesta. There won’t be any biking today; instead, a sampan boat in a small canal will offer a relaxing experience under the warm sun.
Continue cruising to Cai Be town, passing a small floating market. It’s fascinating to observe locals at work in their workshops producing items like rice paper, pop rice, coconut toffee, and more. Finally, a boat transfer will take you to your resort for an overnight stay.

Combining biking and ferry crossings on the way to Sa Đéc, our journey begins with a 1-hour van transfer to the southwest of the delta. Once there, we’ll hop back on our bikes and explore different islands along the main Mekong River, taking the last ferry to Sa Đéc town. Embark on a bike loop around the area, visiting the renowned flower villages that are the largest in the delta.
Sa Đéc is particularly famous for its vibrant flower culture. A key attraction is the ancient house of Huỳnh Thủy Lê, well-known for its romantic love story, depicted in the novel by Marguerite Duras, later adapted into a movie in 1986. A delightful lunch at the house awaits, providing a perfect break during our explorations.
After lunch, you can choose to enjoy a siesta or a coffee break. We then continue our journey, riding backroads to Can Tho. The distance covered will be discussed with your guide, considering the weather conditions for a comfortable and enjoyable ride.

Early this morning, we will visit the floating market – Cai Rang, where people trade goods from boat to boat, and various fruits and vegetables from the Mekong region are on display. After exploring the floating market, your guide will lead you to meet the ‘snake man’ on bicycles. He is a friendly and hospitable character, representing the typical personality of the people in the Mekong Delta. You’ll have the opportunity to taste some fruits and sample snake wine.

Cycling through numerous gardens, your ride will conclude in Vinh Kim. Enjoy lunch at a local house, and then meet your car for the transfer back to Saigon.
