We will begin this tour by fetching you from your hotel in Saigon / Ho Chi Minh City and transferring you to the Les Rives boat dock. We will then head towards the Cu Chi district onboard the speed boat. While we are cruising along the Saigon River, you can enjoy a light breakfast and admire the contrasting landscape of urban-rural Saigon. In about an hour, we will arrive at Cu Chi and continue our journey by bike.
Once we disembark, our local tour guide will brief us on safety procedures and set up our bikes for the upcoming 30km adventure. We will cycle through the quiet back roads and enjoy the short getaway from the big city. Our trip will follow a picturesque route where we will be pampered with the scenery of dense rubber plantations and vast agricultural landscapes. Don’t forget to take a picture of this breath-taking countryside! As we pass by some locals who are going about their daily activities, you may want to stop for a while and strike up a conversation with them. Along the way, we will also visit the traditional market and witness the local craftsmanship of rice paper making.
Next up is the highlight of our trip, the Cu Chi Tunnels. We will pedal towards our destination and enjoy a private tour once we arrive there. Our guide will explain about the history of the tunnel network and its significance during the Vietnam War. While you may feel solemn when listening to the stories, you should not miss the chance to have a first-hand experience of the tunnel. You can discover the hidden trap doors leading down to the tunnel and re-enact how the soldiers crawl underground during the war here. After we are done exploring the tunnel, we will have our lunch at a local restaurant before heading back to Saigon. In around an hour and a half, you will return to your hotel and have a wonderful memory of our cycling trip to Cu Chi Tunnels.
