What to expect
Day one brings you to major temples and royal sites, walking through grounds rich with Vietnamese history whilst your guide explains their significance. You'll cover several locations by car, then switch to bicycles for a slower exploration through farming areas and smaller villages where daily life unfolds around you. Accommodation is solid mid-range comfort with working facilities. Meals are straightforward Vietnamese fare served at set times. Day two centres on either more cycling or additional sites depending on the itinerary. Expect heat and humidity; bring water and sun protection. The pace suits most fitness levels, though cycling is genuinely involved rather than token.
