Join Mr Biker Saigon on an unforgettable gravel bike adventure in Vietnam — from the volcanic highlands of Pleiku, through the pine forests of Mang Den, down the historic Ho Chi Minh Trails, and along quiet coastal roads to the lantern-lit charm of Hoi An. Over 5 epic days, you’ll climb volcano rims, explore remote ethnic villages, descend through jungle-covered ridges, and finish with a beachside ride and a cultural finale in one of Vietnam’s most iconic towns. This isn’t your average ride. It’s a challenge worth every pedal stroke — fully supported, hotel to hotel, and guided by real cyclists who live and breathe Vietnam.

Verified Must do cycling trips! Ive been riding with Mr Biker for years. I think I've done every ride.What started as a thing to do on weekends when I moved to Saigon became a genuine hobby cum passion.Mr Biker is for cyclists. They run outstanding tours, but every one is tweaked for the needs of the cyclists on the day. Everything from super challenging mountain climbs in Ha Giang, to long distance international tours, to day trips around Saigon are possible.I love cycling, but Im not super fast or super skilled. Ive been on rides where Ive been the most experienced and rides where I've been at the back of the pack. It never matters - the team at Mr Biker make sure you have an incredible time and cater to your needs and strengths.The staff at Mr Biker are an absolute strength of this company. They're passionate about cycling and about their job - its like riding with a tight knit group of friends in the best way. Whether youre a hobby cyclist or a serious lycra aficionado - a Mr Biker tour is a must do in Vietnam.(They also do all kinds of bike hire and their bikes are awesome!)Verified Best team to go bike riding in Vietnam. MRBiker! This is my 6th outing with this Team. We went riding to Ke Ga, a beach 120km east of Saigon. First experience with a Gravel Bike. And although rented, it was brand new!!It was intense but extremely rewarding upon arrival. We rode through woods, gravel, mud rice paddies, past by green hills and rivers and ponds. And finally the sea!!As usual brilliantly organizad considering we were more than 20 riders of different levels of fitness, but in gral all fit!“ Great dinner” and accommodation was good, very warm people, as is the tradition of Vietnamese folk. After it was over and comig back, gain I got the feeling … “when is the next one??”.Luckily next one is just a week away!!!😄Verified Kê Gà ride It was one of my numerous bike rides with Mr Biker. As usual it was great. Excellent organisation: good pace, good guidance, regular stops with drinks,, fruits and food, good accomodation, very friendly and fun staff.I will continue to ride with Mr Biker whenever I have the opportunity!Thanks guys!Verified HCM City to Hoi An - just for fun! Fantastic 10 days with Tron and An and Mr Biker Saigon on our journey from HCM City to Hoi An. Everything top class - food, hotels, variety of locations, history, service, quality of the e bikes and our two guides did everything they could to give us a memorable biking holiday. Whilst the biking wasn’t hard, we all learnt to deal with the heat and having the rest day in the middle was perfect!Thanks Mr Biker, Tron, An and your support crew for a fabulous adventureVerified 3 epic days biking the Mekong Our 3 day bike ride through the Mekong was the highlight of our Vietnam trip. The scenery, was stunning, it was such an authentic, beautiful way of seeing the area. Thuan and our driver looked after us incredibly. We opted for a private tour so we didn't see another tourist for 3 days. The accommodation, the food, the care was faultless and personal. The bikes were brand new and well looked after. We would recommend it highly to anyone. We can't wait to do another trip with them. Thank you Thuan!Verified Excellent cycling trip We had such an amazing day cycling through the stunning Mekong Delta with our super helpful & insightful guide Minh. I’d highly recommend Mr BikeVerified Amazing Cycling in Vietnam I joined *Mr. Biker Saigon* on a gravel bike cycling from Saigon to Hoi An; I highly recommend this trip & Mr. Biker Saigon if you like speedy road/gravel riding, great food, are adventurous, and are curious about Vietnam. Mr. Biker Saigon is a local (Vietnamese company) that is connected to the community and attuned to international tourists’ needs.I’m an experienced group (road bike) rider who went with 3 friends who also ride a ton; my less cycling-obsessed friends were happy to join on e-mtb’s. We rode over 300 miles (including 10-15k ft of climbing and an insanely beautiful 18 miles, 5000 ft descent from Da Lat to Nha Trang). It was completely supported - we had a few very fast road riders guiding us, support vehicles, and stayed at hotels along the way. Throughout the trip, the guides introduced us to local food, community, and culture; we wove through rice paddies, coffee, tea, and banana farms, encountered weddings, local crafts like grass mat weaving and fishing net repair, shrimp farms, and breath-taking views of the coastline. Our guide Trong, shared his own stories about growing up in Vietnam, answered our questions, and introduced us to so much of Vietnam; time with him was a wonderful gift. And he’s a super strong rider!We road gravel bikes to have access to the smaller roads and villages in Vietnam (and gravel tires have the appropriate tire width for that terrain). The traffic laws and customs are different from US, but our guide did a good job helping us adjust to the differences, choosing safe roads, and guiding us. Because there are so many motor-bike and bicycle riders in Vietnam than in the US, I felt like drivers were *more* aware of us, and I felt very safe riding there. If you are considering a trip to Vietnam cycling, I encourage you to reach out to Mr. Biker Saigon; they were super accommodating, and can just the best guides and people I’ve been around. Also, we had so much excellent coffee together!Verified 5 day biking tour through the mekong delta My son and I took a five-day trip through the Mekong Delta on e-bikes. The bikes were excellent and reliable, with zero issues. All the homestay accommodations were amazing, featuring good food, clean rooms, and great hospitality. The GPS for the route was easy to use and provided clear instructions. Even in cases where the route didn’t exist, finding our own way with the app wasn’t difficult. Mr. Biker offered punctual and helpful assistance regarding the bike, pick-up, drop-off, and overall communication before and throughout the trip. I would recommend the tour to anyone, 10/10!Verified Safe and fun adventure for families Going in this bike tour was a highlight of our summer. We are a family of three: myself, my husband, and our almost 7 year old son. I wasn’t sure if he would be able to complete a long bike trip, but I really wanted to try. Mr. Biker Saigon worked with us to curate a bespoke trip based our needs and our child’s age. We rode for 2 days and ended with a relaxing morning seeing the floating markets in Can Tho. Our guide, Thuan, was wonderfully helpful, conversational, kind, and professional. He made an extra effort to support our son when things got challenging on the tour. He was a great guide and definitely made the experience meaningful for us. Some of the features of the trip that I appreciated: the clean, super luxe fan we were carted around in, the wonderful roadside food and coffee we had, the beautiful flower-lined waterfront paths we traveled, seeing almost no other cyclists the entire time. It was a true peek into Vietnamese villages that would be near-impossible to find on one’s own. Thrilled with the experience. Highly recommend.Verified Unforgettable cycling Adventure in the Jungles A great experience when cycling in the jungles, the team of Mr Biker was so passionate and professional. 35 km in the jungle on Trek E bike was just amazing. The team support was more than my expextation.Load more
