Begin the trip with a 2-hour transfer to the Mekong Delta, arriving at Ngu Hiep Village in Cai Lay. Pick up the bikes, adjust the saddles, and cycle across the new bridge to Ngu Hiep Island. Explore local life on the island as you ride through lush orchards and a small market filled with fresh tropical fruits, with a chance to taste some along the way before taking a ferry to Tan Phong Island.

The cycling routes on Tan Phong Island follow friendly, narrow paths through rustic villages and a tiny township. Then, enjoy another ferry crossing to Cai Be Town and continue cycling through small canal-side villages. Visit one of the most beautiful traditional ancient houses in the area, Ba Kiet House in Cai Be.

After the visit, enjoy a delicious local meal cooked by the house owner, then continue your ride toward the Mekong River. Take a public ferry to An Binh Island and keep cycling to discover local life across the island. Finally, enjoy the last ferry crossing to Vinh Long, followed by a 1-hour vehicle transfer to Can Tho.

After breakfast, we check out and take a motorized boat to the bustling Cai Rang Floating Market. This famous market attracts millions of visitors each year because of its authentic atmosphere. In the early morning, local people from nearby rural villages bring their farm products here by boat. It is a great opportunity to see the lively trading activities in action, as buyers and sellers exchange goods directly from boat to boat.
 

After visiting the floating market, we disembark and continue by bicycle. We ride along narrow country roads to Phong Dien, exploring local life in the backwaters. After a coffee break in Phong Dien, we continue cycling on smooth village paths and along riverbanks toward Co Do via Thoi Lai. The river network here is intricate, with many small bridges crossing the canals. Along the way, we pass shaded paths, wooden boat-building workshops, rice mills, and everyday scenes of life along the waterways. After a late lunch in a small town, we take a 2-hour shuttle transfer to Chau Doc.
