Tour provider's comments

You’ll ride on a Trek Brand mountain bike, the Marlin 5 that’s been designed to be both comfortable and durable. This bike is a trail-worthy daily rider that’s perfectly suited for everyday adventures, on and off the trail. We have a full range of bike sizes available for you to choose from, and the helmet is also included in your tour.

This trip is rated Activity Level "Active" and it is suitable for those with an intermediate level of fitness. It will be a great opportunity to explore the area while challenging yourself with some adventurous activities.

On this trip we cycle approx. 735 km (457 miles) over eleven cycling days, and riders are expected to cover an average distance of 80-100 km (50-62 miles) per day with up to 95 percent support from vehicle transportation. This is an excellent way to explore the area in a sustainable and healthy manner while also taking part in a meaningful experience.

The terrain and route along the way is mostly well paved, flat with some undulations, making it a great road for cycling. However, there are two notable exceptions: the city of Dalat has a more challenging terrain that can be difficult to conquer on bicycle, and the Hai Van Pass is known for its steep climbs and descents. Nonetheless, it is still an enjoyable ride nonetheless.

Cycling in Vietnam can be a challenge due to the hot and humid climate, however there is plenty of rest stops and drinking water available during your journey to keep you hydrated and comfortable while riding in traffic for parts of the itinerary.

Bike & Personal Equipment
We strongly recommend that you ride a mountain bike for our trips that involve asphalt, dirt, and backroads, some of which are sandy and rocky. If you are much more comfortable with your own stuff, we highly suggest bringing items such as pedals, saddles, helmets, and water bottles. Our mechanic will make adjustments to your bikes and personal belongings.

Safety
We recommend you wear a helmet on all our biking adventures. This is non-negotiable. If you do not wear a helmet, you will not be allowed to cycle. Your tour guide is trained in first aid and emergency rescue, but to a large degree, you must be responsible for your own safety while riding.
