A cycling route starting in Can Giuoc, Long An, Vietnam.

Overview

About this route

1

Mekong is a land with all beauty in endless fertile rice fields, shades of coconut roads, vast fruit orchards, magnificent handicraft villages, unique floating markets and amazing friendliness of local people. It is great to have a more close-up and a slow moving to feel more the Mekong Delta.

This six days makes a full look that if you do any further, it is a kind of repetition or just pushing pedals on the less attractive roads. The experience is from nature (big rivers, maze of canals, vast rice farm, fish farms,  etc) to people (visiting villages along the routes, meeting people on ferries and at stops, boat drivers, ) and special feature of culture (floating market, boat culture, worshiping Local Goddess, etc). On bike you have everything on your pace, at small roads, little bridges, remote hamlets, and authentic Mekong. The language is limited meanwhile the experience of this trip is worth of more than a book.
