Arriving in Saigon and taking the rest of the day to get to know the busiest city of Vietnam. Your hotel is hand-picked and located conveniently with walking distance to all major historical and cultural landmarks of the city. The city is overwhelming at a glance but organized in a chaotic way. Nevertheless, it is very safe toward travelers, especially once you get a hang on the art of crossing streets.
Bike-fitting session recommended: you could come to our bike shop for a quick bike fit to ensure your bicycle suits you the most. This typically takes around 1 hour. You will have a chance to try out your bike, adjust to change some components for better fit, etc.

You are going to traverse some of the largest islands made by the Mekong rivers. The terrains will be varied as you cycle on land, across multiple bridges, or taking a ferry here and there. This area belongs to Ben Tre province, and is often called “The Coconut Kingdom” for a reason: “There are millions of coconuts growing everywhere you go”. The last section involved biking on narrow islands where you could see the water on either side. It gives a strange feeling to be on land while you are in the middle of the river.

This scenic ride takes you from the peaceful shores of Tri An Lake through southern Vietnam’s verdant countryside. You’ll pass rows of rubber trees, cashew orchards, and pepper plantations, with occasional glimpses of local village life. As you near Cát Tiên National Park, the air grows cooler under the canopy of dense lowland forest—home to rich wildlife and rare bird species.
Once at the park, consider joining a night wildlife-watching tour to spot nocturnal animals in their natural habitat. Be sure to contact the ticket booth (within walking distance from most park accommodations) before 5 PM to inquire about the evening’s excursion and secure your spot.

Get ready for a laid-back ride through Vietnam’s gorgeous highlands! Today’s route is all about soaking in the peaceful vibes. You’ll roll past endless coffee and tea plantations, little villages, and farmland that might just remind you of home—if home had misty hills and banana trees!
Wave to farmers tending their fields and kids cycling alongside you, curious and cheerful. The roads are quiet and calming, with plenty of spots to pull over, snap a photo, or just breathe in the fresh air.
By late afternoon, you’ll arrive at your cozy homestay in Lam Ha. It’s the perfect spot to kick back, enjoy a home-cooked meal, and share stories with your hosts. This isn’t just a stop for the night—it’s a chance to feel like part of the family and enjoy the simple, beautiful life of the highlands

Today’s ride is the grand finale of your highland adventure! The road to Da Lat brings rolling hills that grow into big climbs—challenging, yes, but oh-so-rewarding. It’s the kind of ride cyclists love and hate at the same time.
As you tackle the ascents, take breaks to admire the ever-changing scenery: pine forests, flower farms, and sweeping views of misty valleys below. The air gets cooler and fresher the closer you get to Da Lat, and the energy of this lively city will pull you forward.
Finally, you’ll arrive in Da Lat, Vietnam’s “City of Eternal Spring,” with its French-inspired charm, colorful markets, and peaceful lakes. Celebrate conquering the hills with a well-deserved treat—maybe a local specialty like Da Lat strawberries or a cup of its famous coffee.

Meals provided: Breakfast
Accommodation: not included

Check out by 11:30 to start your transfer back to Saigon (around 6hr, expecting arrival time around 6 p.m). Check in to your hotel in Saigon and bid farewell to your trusted driver.

Casey S2025-09-02Verified 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!) leesorob2025-08-31Verified 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!!!😄 Jean-Jacques M2025-08-31Verified 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! KIRSTY P2025-08-26Verified 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 adventure Jet094859679822025-08-21Verified 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! Wander6268362025-08-06Verified 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 Bike Marjie D2025-07-25Verified 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! Hanne B2025-07-20Verified 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! Emily T2025-07-11Verified 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. Phong Nha Heritage Trekkings2025-06-22Verified 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
