We will gather at our meeting point – Mr Biker Saigon in District 1 by 07.00 and begin our 1-hour transfer to the start of our cycling experience. Arriving at one of our favorite local cafes for coffee. During this preparation for riding, we will have time to ensure that your bicycle is properly fitted and you are acquainted with it.

Our cycling adventures through the rice paddies are particularly narrow and elevated for irrigation purposes. For less experienced riders, walking your bike through these short distances is recommended and will give amazing opportunities for some spectacular photos of the verdant landscapes the Mekong region has to offer.

After a relaxing stop at a local river overpass for a much-needed water refill and cool snack, we will continue through empty country roads under the shade of mature indigenous trees. This will be a welcome respite from the sun’s rays and in this part of the segment the wind picks up and provides a refreshing and cooling breeze.

While the cycling is much more relaxed and less technical in this segment, we do realize that some of our riders will elect to take a shuttle to our finishing destination instead of continuing to ride. Our transport vehicle and private shuttle will be standing by to ensure that these riders have the support they need to thoroughly enjoy their day at the end of the ride we will all meet up at a local boat station for a relaxing 1-hour tour on a private boat along one of the most beautiful region’s waterways to a restaurant where we will be treated to authentic Mekong cuisine and have an opportunity to relax and refresh with a cold shower.

After a relaxing lunch and adult beverage enjoyment, we will say goodbye to the Mekong and hop back into our private transport vehicle for a 1,5-hour ride back to HCMC. Arrival in HCMC at approximately 17:00
