The southern half of Vietnam, from the central coast down to Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), is a diverse and endlessly fascinating region that offers truly sensational cycling and cultural experiences. Starting from the ancient spice and silk-trading port of Hoi An, we’ll make our way south along the beautiful coastline, delving into the mountains to challenge our legs and explore hidden valleys along the way. The hospitality is unsurpassed, with locals inviting us to try the abundance of seafood and (gigantic!) fruits and vegetables that inspire so much pride among the fishing people and farmers. We’ll balance challenging rides with stays in spectacular seaside resorts, making for an experience that truly hits all the right notes. We’ll finish with a celebration in central Saigon, the perfect place to cap off this unforgettable Vietnamese voyage!

Tonight, we’ll gather for dinner in this ancient port on the maritime silk road; in these atmospheric surroundings, influenced by Japanese, Indian, French, and Vietnamese traditions, our guide will set the stage for the journey ahead.
We leave Hoi An by bicycle and cross the Cua Dai Bridge, with sweeping views over the river mouth and the open South China Sea beyond. South of Hoi An, the landscape becomes much quieter, as we’ll pass through farming villages unaccustomed to foreign visitors. Following the Thu Bon River south, the landscape will transition from rice paddies and sand dunes to seaside fishing villages with their quiet, windswept beauty. Reaching the outskirts of Quang Ngai, we’ll reach our resort, perfectly integrated into its natural surroundings.
Riding from our resort this morning, we’ll warm up with a flat section, then cross over a couple of small coastal passes, leaving us on a little-traveled seaside road that is a true delight. This fast section also gives plenty of scenic vistas and opportunities to see local life at farms and villages. Passing along large lagoons, we’ll see colourful wooden fishing boats being built by skilled craftspeople. Our ride ends near the small port city of Qui Nhon; we’ll take a short vehicle transfer to our stunning accommodations hidden in a tiny fishing hamlet, where you can enjoy a hearty dinner amid the crashing surf.
After a 1-hour transfer, we find ourselves riding through a lush green valley with striking mountain scenery rising above us on both sides. Emerging later at the coast, we’ll ride along another of the sparkling blue lagoons that contrast with the surrounding rice fields. A floating seafood restaurant is the perfect lunch stop in this maritime environment. Glide into the dynamic, modern city of Tuy Hoa, with its gigantic modern sculptures along a wide-open stretch of beach. Enjoy an evening out in this fun, lively city!
Today’s ride features one of Vietnam’s most famous and beautiful stretches of coast on a road carved into rugged, rocky hillsides that soar high above the crashing surf. A historic lighthouse and secluded towns make for memorable stops along the way. This is not a long ride, but the steep ascents will certainly stretch our legs. Descending to the village of Dai Lanh, we then transfer south to Nha Trang. Renowned as a resort city, Nha Trang is also famed for the brick towers of the Cham Hindu civilization that ruled the area until around 400 years ago. These centuries-old structures honouring various gods are still worshipped by the Cham today, and are well worth a visit from our nearby hotel
Transferring a short distance out of Nha Trang, we’ll start today’s ride with a serious challenge: the Khanh Son Pass will take us all the way up to 600 m ASL on a series of sharp switchbacks! Enjoy views from the top, followed by a thrilling descent and long stretches of secluded roads that bring us into little-traveled inland territory. These valleys form microclimates with different vegetation and wildlife. After a long, gradual descent, we’ll cross a couple more passes on our way out to the coast. Tonight, we’ll stay in a modern, spacious resort on the outskirts of the town of Phan Rang.
Our final ride in south Vietnam is a true classic: the Ninh Thuan Coast Road, which lives up to its reputation as an iconic route with incredible views over the sea and the Nui Chua Nature Reserve, which protects many unique species. Flattening out for around 30 km near Phan Rang, we’ll soon ascend on another section of hills that lead us to idyllic hidden coves. After this incredible ride, we’ll board our vehicles and drive 2 hours into central Saigon. Our historic hotel is in the center of the city, steps away from the famed Opera House. We’ll celebrate our journey with dinner and a night out in this vibrant metropolis that never sleeps!
