13 days | Moderate to Challenging | 5.00 From $2,343 ( USD ) E-bikes, a support van, a mechanic, 4-star hotels, most meals, and a cold beer every evening. All 12 nights on this Vietnam cycling holiday are spent in 4-star hotels and resorts. In Saigon , we start at The Odys Boutique Hotel ahead of the ride. The highlands bring Sandals Vista Hotel in Bao Loc and Colline Hotel in Da Lat. On the coast, Sunrise Nha Trang covers two nights in Nha Trang , followed by Sala Tuy Hoa Grand Hotel in Tuy Hoa , Fleur de Lys Qui Nhon in Quy Nhon , and New CC Hotel in Quang Ngai. The final stretch ends with two nights at Anmira Resort & Spa in Hoi An and two at TTC Imperial Hotel in Hue. Most meals are covered across all 13 days, served at local restaurants, riverside stops, and hotel dining rooms as we work our way north. The food shifts with the region: Central Highland coffee country around Bao Loc and Da Lat, fresh seafood along the coast in Nha Trang and Tuy Hoa, and the subtler, herb-forward cuisine of central Vietnam as we approach Hoi An and Hue. Water, soft drinks, snacks, and fresh fruit are included on every cycling day. A few meals stand out on their own. We kick things off with a welcome dinner in Saigon and close with a farewell dinner on Day 11, right after the Hai Van Pass climb. Day 12 brings a farm-to-table lunch at a hidden organic farm outside Hue. And at the end of every cycling day, no matter how long, a cold beer is part of the deal. This 13-day e-bike cycling journey traces Vietnam's central spine from Saigon to Hue, covering around 605 km (376 mi) of highland climbs, coastal roads, and everything in between. We start in the Central Highlands with tea and coffee plantations as the backdrop, descend to the beach at Nha Trang, then push north through fishing villages and rice paddies before a rest day in Hoi An. The hardest ride comes last: the climb over Hai Van Pass and into the former imperial capital of Hue. Four-star hotels, an e-bike, a support van, a mechanic, and most meals are all included. The Giant E+ Fathom, a reliable electric mountain bike built for exactly this kind of trip. The electric assist is smooth and unobtrusive, taking the edge off long climbs and extended distances without turning the riding into a passive experience. The geometry is well-balanced for long days in the saddle, and the handling is stable across the mixed terrain this route throws at you, from gravel tracks and rural roads to coastal tarmac. It's a bike designed to keep you moving comfortably all day, not to do the riding for you. The usual client-to-guide ratio is 8:1. It takes a minimum of 4 people for this tour to operate. The maximum group size is set at 12 participants. Solo travelers can share a room with another same-gender solo traveler at no extra cost (subject to availability), or guarantee a private room by paying a single occupancy fee.
