What You Will Do
Mekong is the life blood of Vietnam. The mighty river is one of the longest in the world. Along with its intricate network of snaking rivers, streams and canals, it is like the veins of the human body. They carry people and goods. They feed the fertile lands that make it possible for Vietnam to grow the immense amounts of agricultural produce necessary to feed millions and sustain life in Vietnam.
No visit to Vietnam would be complete without experiencing Mekong and this special tour is unique because you get to see the countryside by van, the mighty river and islands by boat, and cycle deeper into the jungle where travel by vehicle would be very challenging or impossible. This tour takes you off the beaten path to meet locals and learn about their “water hyacinth” lifestyle.

VN Bike Tour
8:00 AM, VN Bike Tour guide will pick you up at your place Upon arrival after 2-hour drive, we will transfer to bikes. We must cycle as it is virtually impossible to get to our destination by car along the winding pathways and jungle, over the safe, but challenging, terrain. Along our 7 – 10 km cycling route, we are going to pass through peaceful village streets, cross bridges connecting isolated small canals, and stop at tropical fruit gardens. Here you will also enjoy the experience of sampling local cuisine by having a typical “homegrown, homemade” meal From here we head to the wharf to board a traditional sampan. Our next stop is Kirin Island where you can sample freshly baked coconut candy and honey which tastes of the island’s rich and diverse flora. We will break briefly in the shade to taste rich, seasonal tropical fruits and listen to folk music, performed by local artists. Back in Ho Chi Minh City at around 6 pm.
