Mekong Delta 2 days 1 nights Cycling Trip

This leisurely ride is a short-but-sweet sampler into what life in the Mekong Delta looks like. It will cover a wide range of distinct terrain types from elevated wooden platforms over rice fields to pathed trails beneath coconut trees to muddy tracks along the beach. It will also include some good old-fashioned Southern Vietnamese hospitality, with traditional foods and an authentic homestay experience on a farm.
E-MTB available with a surcharge of 36USD/bike/day!

destination in lieu of continuing to ride. Our transport vehicle and private shuttle will be standing by
to ensure that these riders have the support they need to thoroughly enjoy their day.
