Hoi An-stad: Langs kleine en stille steegjes komen we aan de rivieroever van de historische wijk, lang voordat drukte de stad afdaalt. Het is een geweldige tijd voor foto's. Hoi An-platteland: We steken de rivier over en laten de stad achter ons op weg naar My Son, op weg naar landelijke paden die alleen toegankelijk zijn voor fietsen en motorfietsen. Het duurt niet lang voordat we door kleine dorpjes fietsen, langs familieboerderijen en rijstvelden en onderweg werknemers begroeten. Afhankelijk van het seizoen passeren we rijst-, maïs- en zelfs zonnebloemvelden terwijl we een heel ander landschap verkennen dan dat van de stad. We zullen nauwelijks vierwielige voertuigen zien terwijl we via een netwerk van snelkoppelingen en verbindingen die alleen locals zouden weten. De Cham-ruïnes van mijn zoon liggen voor ons.
Als we de rivier oversteken, laten we de stad achter onze wielen op weg naar My Son en wagen we ons op landelijke paden die alleen toegankelijk zijn voor fietsen en motorfietsen. Het duurt niet lang voordat we door kleine dorpjes, langs familieboerderijen en rijstvelden fietsen en onderweg vriendelijke werkers begroeten. Dit is je beste kans om een glimp op te vangen van het authentieke Vietnamese leven.
Nadat we onze energie hebben aangevuld met een gezonde snack van vers fruit en lokale koffie of thee, is het een korte transfer naar de ingang van dit UNESCO-werelderfgoed. Nieuwe regelgeving vereist dat we onze fietsen parkeren en aan boord gaan van elektrische shuttlebusjes naar de belangrijkste ruïnes.
Een rit aan boord van ons privébusje met een tussenstop voor een eenvoudige maar heerlijke lunch met lokale noedels maakt een leuke, informatieve tour van een halve dag compleet.

Amazing experience from Hoi An! The bike ride was beautiful and at a pace that matched my abilities (as I’m not a very good cycler) with breaks in the shade to cool off and enjoy the views. The food stops (market, cafe and lunch) were all delicious and well timed for a break. The highlight by far was My Son Sanctuary and having a personal guide to help me understand the historical significance was incredible. Mr Easy was a wonderful guide and also gave heaps of recommendations for where else to go in Hoi An
Thank you for your wonderful review. We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the bike ride, delicious food stops, and the visit to My Son Sanctuary. It's especially great to know that Mr Easy made the experience so memorable with his knowledge, support, and local recommendations. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back to Hoi An in the future.
From 24/02 to 11/03 of this year my wife and I were in Tanzania for 1 week of safari and one of sea. For the safari we relied on a local Tour Operator the Branded Africa Safaris owned by Mr. Masha. The organization was also above my expectations thanks to the valence and courtesy of our escort and driver Elisante that in times of difficulty (due to the numerous bogs of the jeep caused by the overflowing ground for rain) has never lost heart and has always found a solution to the problem. Different experience sea, moreover I booked. Having already been to Zanzibar about twenty years ago, I had chosen another island to enjoy some sunshine even knowing that the period chosen would not be the best given the beginning of the small rainy season. I opted for the island of Mafia and the stay at the Butiama Marine Camp located in Utende, in the east of the island where the marine park is located. I booked here because being a marine park (where you pay one from the of 23 $ per person per day) I thought there was the reef and I could do snorkelling and diving even from the shore. None of this: sandy bottom and devoid of vegetation and very small beach and usable only after 9 am because of the 'high tide that before came up to the entrance of the same. Accommodation in dated and not very large tuculs, inadequate facilities, beach towels and third world loungers. Discreet cuisine. All in all a disappointment, also because of the rain that certainly did not favor the experience. But I take the blame for this also because we could not choose another period.
Thank you for your detailed feedback. We’re delighted your safari exceeded expectations and that Elisante made such a positive impact. We’re sorry the beach stay didn’t meet expectations and understand your disappointment. Your comments are appreciated and will help us improve future recommendations.

Our guide, Tam, was fantastic. We hadn’t initially realized the tour included a three-hour bike ride, but Tam set us up with high-quality bikes, making the ride smooth and enjoyable. Tam is sweet and kind, comfortable biking quietly so we could take in the scenery, but always ready to share his love for the country and stories if you’re interested. The route itself was easy and a perfect way to see the countryside and towns beyond the typical tourist spots in Hoi An. You truly get a sense of how people live there. Tam provided water and bananas along the way, happily stopping for breaks, photos, and even brief lessons on things we passed. After the ride and a coffee break, we took a bus to My Son Sanctuary. You could tell Tam is genuinely passionate about history; he shared insights that really brought the place to life. His English was excellent, so he was always easy to understand. At the end, he took us to a fantastic food spot before dropping us off exactly where we needed to go. Overall, it was an amazing day, and Tam was a wonderful guide!

This tour was absolutely amazing! Though My Son sanctuary is the final destination if you love cycling this is a great way to explore the countryside and local villages around Hoi An. My guide Hoàn was extremely knowledgeable about both the local area and the history. The terrain is mostly flat but you need to have a medium- experienced level of fitness due to the heat it’s 28 km. Highly recommended

We’re also happy to know that the terrain and distance were just right for you, even with the heat! Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you on another adventure soon!
This tour was excellent. The guide (Kay) was knowledgeable and extremely friendly. The tour consisted of a gentle cycle ride through vietnamese countryside, with frequent stops for water, drinks, and fruit. A mini bus then picks you up and takes you the rest of the way to My Son. My Son is well worth seeing, but a guide (like on this tour) is a must. The ruins wouldn't mean much if you didn't have a guide (particulaly if you were like us who hadnt dine extensiove background research on the hietory of the ruins, their discovery, and the general cham culture. In a nutshell, the trip was well worth it if staying in the Hoi An area if you want a mix of history, culture, and gentle cycling combined. It makes for an enjoyable day out.
Thank you for your fantastic review! We’re delighted to hear that you had an excellent tour with Kay.

Your recommendation for this mix of history, culture, and cycling is greatly appreciated, and we hope to welcome you back for more adventures in the Hoi An area soon!
We had an incredible experience with Hoàn! It was just two of us and since we are seasoned cyclist we took some detours which really added to our experience. I learned so much about Vietnamese culture, plants and the language. It was hands down the best part of our trip!

Love this tour! Our host Tom was brilliant and accommodated us & our daughter well. The bikes were very well maintained, with working gears, helmets and far exceeded any other bikes we used on our tours. The countryside was so interesting, riding through the local villages. My Son is definitely worth the effort!! Lunch on the return trip was delicious!!! Thank you Tom, one of our highlights of our time in Vietnam!

An amazing tour with Tam, who was so knowledgeable, caring and patient with us during the entire trip. Despite not being avid cyclists, this is a wonderful way to see this beautiful region of Vietnam and then to visit the Sanctuary and listen to the history from Tam, made for an unbelievable experience. Highly recommend this with Tam! Bob Rajan (Munich, Germany)

I hesitated booking this experience because it is something I wouldn’t normally do, but I am so glad I did! What an incredible experience! Huy was very knowledgeable and spoke excellent English. The heat was a bit intense, so I suggest bringing extra water if possible and plenty of sunscreen. I also chose to wear a cycling chamois which I would recommend for those who are not consistent with cycling. We did stop along the way for an electrolyte drink and bananas which helped. The ride was pretty flat and mellow, which allowed me to really take in the sights. This was by far one of the most incredible experiences I’ve ever had, and I will always remember it. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a different type of adventure and an opportunity to see a bit of real life in Vietnam.
Your feedback truly warms our hearts! We're thrilled to hear that despite initial hesitation, you embarked on our adventure and found it to be an incredible experience. Thank you for recommending our tour to others seeking a unique adventure and a taste of real life in Vietnam. We can't wait to welcome you back for more incredible experiences in the future!
