Pedal from Ha Tien to Ho Chi Minh City

Chau Doc may be a small town, but it is well known for its international border crossings—both by land and water—connecting Vietnam and Cambodia and welcoming travelers from both directions.

After breakfast, take a short boat trip to explore the vibrant floating village and fish farms. As you cruise along, you’ll witness how local families raise catfish beneath their floating homes and gain insight into the daily lives of hardworking communities who live entirely on the water.

Later, enjoy an easy and relaxing cycling journey along the banks of the Mekong River. Ride through peaceful villages on quiet paths, passing fields of vegetables, chili, eggplant, and rice, as well as fish farms nestled along natural creeks.

In the afternoon, continue cycling on Gieng Islet, where you’ll visit an impressive monastery known for its distinctive architecture, browse local markets, and observe traditional stilt houses. A short ferry ride brings you back to the mainland, where the journey continues along scenic back roads through lush mango orchards toward the city of Cao Lanh.

The ride will start from the hotel after breakfast. Beautiful back roads give you chances to take photos and enjoy cycling at your own pace. You will also meet friendly people and see how they make a living. In the morning, you will see older adults selling goods at local markets, children going to school on small bicycles, and locals working on their mopeds. You will stop and wait for a ferry to cross the river to the other side. We will ride and make some stops in Sa Dec, where you can experience daily life and see how locals take care of bonsai trees and nursery gardens in the flower village. 

After a late lunch in town, we visit one of the most famous historical sites in Sa Dec- Huynh Thuy Le’s ancient house, which became well known from the movie "The Lover". Your guide will tell you the story of Marguerite Duras, who was connected to the film. We'll enjoy a -2-hour comfortable shuttle to Can Tho. Spend the rest by the pool.

Can Tho is known as the capital of the Mekong Delta. The Cai Rang floating market is one of the three most important markets in the area and is a must-see on your journey. At the market, shops and stalls are set up on boats of different sizes. It is open all day, but the busiest time is from sunrise to around 9 a.m. Most goods sold here are farm products and local specialties from nearby areas. Each boat has a long pole at the front, where samples of the goods are hung so buyers can easily see what is for sale.

Before your cycling trip, you will take a boat ride to visit the floating market. Then, a short transfer will take you to Binh Minh to start a half-day ride. You will explore small islands by bike and local ferry boats, visit Khmer villages, and stop at family-run businesses. The ride ends in a quiet rural village in Tam Binh with en-route toHo Chi Minh. Please inform your bike guide of the hotel address you have booked. Tour ends.
