Tour Description
For those wanting to complete experience of Mekong river life and countryside views, this trip will bring you from a busy and crowded city to a charming atmosphere in countryside with numerous natural and beautiful sceneries. You will be exposed to that by using mainly your private bike. To be more specific about the trip, we plan to take you to some following destinations. First, from your hotel, you can drive along main streets in Can Tho city, which gives you a chance to have actual sights on how busy and crowded Can Tho city is. You, then, approach Cai Rang District. At there, you possibly stop your bike on the middle of Cai Rang bridge (in the case we start to do this tour by bike in the city; if we take a car or scooter, we will not stop at the middle of the bridge), which serves a great vantage point for photography. Situating very close to Cai Rang Floating Market is a small road, leading to the rural area. You will ride on a small path in a small village with a lot of beautiful landscapes along, which shows you the real life of the countryside people authentically. Meanwhile, you also can see see paddy fields, vegetable gardens, followed by a pause at a heritage site where you can see a grand mangrove which is seen as the tree of the Lady Goddess. After about 3.5 hours driving on your bike under a hot and humid weather, I bet you now feel a little bit exhausted. So, it is a time for taking a rest and enjoying a fresh plate of local seasonal fruits at a family garden, treating yourself on a monkey bridge . Those moments are very fanstactic, I would say. Leaving that beautiful garden, your trip will continue heading off to the city.
The trip will end up at your hotel. This journey should take approximately 4.5 hours return from Can Tho.
