Meals: Lunch | Accommodation: Not included

8:00 AM – Let’s start from your hotel with bikes packed in the minibus. After a 2-hour highway drive out of the bustling capital, we reach a small tea village bordering Ba Vi National Park. It’s time for a cold drink while your guide preps the bikes.

Your biking route was made up of local villages, cornfields, orchard gardens, and tea plantations… then leads to the ancient village of Duong Lam for the lunch at one of the local houses.

Two options are offered in the afternoon. You can choose to spend more time walking throughout the village, visit other houses, meet other families, and visit the local temple and pagoda. Or you may prefer more cycling with another loop in a beautiful rural atmosphere. The loop would also end at the pagoda and you can have a quick glance at it before returning to Hanoi. The trip ends at your hotel in Hanoi around 17:00
