Cycling holidays 3D/2N: Cai Be– Vinh Long– Can Tho

Sip tea or coffee and enjoy breakfast while watching cargo boats and local ferries glide across the Upper River. After checking out, get ready for an exciting day ahead.

We cycle to the dock and join locals on a ferry to Cai Be town, where we visit small family-run workshops producing traditional snacks and handicrafts. Along the way, we'll stop and see the Cai Be floating market. From there, we continue biking to explore ancient houses and take a break to enjoy a glass of cà phê sữa đá—Vietnamese iced coffee.

Next, we ride toward the riverside and take another ferry across the Mekong River to Dong Phu. Here, we explore An Binh Island, weaving through narrow waterways and the bustling Dong Phu canals. We continue cycling across the island before boarding a ferry to Vinh Long town.

Upon arrival, we enjoy a delicious lunch at a riverside restaurant. Afterward, you’ll have free time to stroll through the city’s largest fruit market. A short 30-minute transfer then takes us to Tan Phu village in Tam Binh District for the afternoon ride.

We cycle deep into Khmer villages, visiting one of the most beautiful Khmer temples and a local home to experience daily life in the community. The route follows small concrete paths, some tracing quiet rivers and others cutting through expansive farmland and rice fields. As we continue, take in the distinctive landscapes of Khmer culture before reaching the outskirts of Binh Minh, where a vehicle transfer brings us to Can Tho city.

On the last morning of the tour, we’ll take a motorised boat to check out the lively floating market. Cai Rang is the real floating market, full of wholesale and retail boats. Primarily, you can see many grocery boats and floating houses around you. Continue boat riding to the noodle, vermicelli workshop before we, pick our bikes, and explore some of the hidden secrets of the Phong Dien countryside and have lunch before we return to Ho Chi Minh by vehicle.
