Itinerary
Hop on a bicycle for a picturesque half-day tour exploring the idyllic countryside surrounding Hoi An. Pass rows of serene rice paddy fields en route to Cam Thanh Village, a charming local community famous for thatched roof cottages and friendly locals.
Program
Go beyond the ordinary in beautiful Hoi An with a cycling journey into the city's idyllic rural outskirts. Set off from central Hoi An for a leisurely pedal out of town, weaving through rice paddy fields and along dusty country lanes bound for Cam Thanh Village. This charming community not far from Hoi An still boasts a timeless charm otherwise vanishing in other parts of Vietnam. Arrive at the home of a local family here and learn about their day-to-day lives in rural Vietnam.
Then, leave your bicycle behind and board a bamboo basket boat that local crab fishermen still use to haul in their daily catch. Learn the tricks behind the trade from friendly local fishing experts, and get a hands-on look at the livelihoods that keep this community thriving.
Afterwards, take a well-earned rest with a fresh coconut water in hand, before cycling onward to Ha Linh lantern workshop. As one of the most iconic traditional crafts in Hoi An - so iconic that a monthly festival in the sleepy town revolves around lanterns and the full moon - learn how these delicate creations are made. Roll up your sleeves and make your own in a master class before heading back toward central Hoi An by bicycle.
