From the towering peaks of the Truong Son Mountains to the sandy shores of the Gulf of Tonkin, you’ll experience the ultimate Vietnamese road cycling adventure. Over 1,000 kilometers of diverse terrain await—challenging your endurance while rewarding you with remnants of ancient empires, echoes of the Vietnam-America War, dramatic limestone landscapes, shimmering lagoons, and vibrant local cultures. You’ll dive deep into remote regions, connect with communities, and rest in comfort near some of Vietnam’s most treasured UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Your journey begins with a transfer from the lively streets of Hanoi and unfolds across four unique stages:
Stage 1: Valleys of the North
You’ll start with a climb over the Thung Khe Pass and descend into the peaceful Mai Chau Valley, home to lush rice fields and stilt house villages. From there, follow the Song Ma River through the scenic hills of Thanh Hoa Province.
Stage 2: The Ho Chi Minh Highway
For the next three days, you’ll ride along the legendary Ho Chi Minh Highway, laid atop the historic trail. Expect smooth tarmac, jungle-clad mountains, and sweeping farmland as you cruise through Vietnam’s highlands.
Stage 3: Phong Nha – Ke Bang National Park
Take a well-earned rest day to explore the park’s surreal caves, underground rivers, and otherworldly limestone formations—some of the most spectacular in the world.
Stage 4: The Central Coast
Over four days, you’ll cycle through fishing villages, coastal roads, and calm lagoons. Visit the historic war tunnels of Vinh Moc, marvel at the Imperial Citadel in Hue, and unwind at the beach in Lang Co. The grand finale? A scenic ride over the iconic Hai Van Pass before finishing in the charming town of Hoi An.
