Programme Details
Hop on a bike and discover the tranquil pace of life and beautiful scenery of Hoi An's surrounding countryside. Pedal through villages that retain their old-world charm, see traditional crafts being made and meet with friendly locals. A scenic boat trip along the Thu Bon River caps off the adventure.
Pick up at 08:30 from your hotel to the meeting point to start the tour . Set off on a Hoi An countryside bicycle tour. Take a short warm-up ride to Hoi An’s main boat pier, board a local ferry boat, and cross the Thu Bon River.
Back on dry land, pedal into the countryside. Pass through picturesque villages where life moves at a slower pace. Pedal across rice paddies and coconut groves, crisscrossing small waterways. Stop often to take photos of the beautiful landscapes.
Along the way there are also plenty of chances to see traditional handicrafts. Visit a wood carving workshop making everything from furniture to statues. See a boat building yard where river boats and other vessels are created using traditional methods handed down from generation to generation. There may also be a chance to see the production of ‘basket boats’, small woven baskets that can be paddled by one person as a sort of raft. These visits provide a great opportunity to see the remarkable innovation and skills of the Vietnamese people.
Having worked up an appetite, take a break for lunch. A selection of traditional Vietnamese dishes will be served near a family house in a quiet, scenic location. Then it’s time to return to Hoi An. Board a wooden river boat for a relaxing 45-minute cruise back to town, arriving in the mid-afternoon. (L)
