Biking Hanoi to Luang Prabang
Northern Vietnam and Laos are lands of shimmering terraced rice fields, lush jungles, stunning views over rugged peaks and gorges, and unforgettable encounters with a plethora of local ethnic groups. Traveling by bike, we can access hidden aspects of the region and connect in a very immediate and authentic way. This is a journey with new discoveries at every turn!
After exploring Hanoi, Vietnam’s elegant capital, we take the historic train line to the hill station of Sapa and begin traversing the spectacular northwestern region of Vietnam. Riding among the crests of Indochina’s highest peak, Fansipan, we cross the formidable terrain to Dien Bien Phu, the impressive site of the final defeat of the French colonial forces in 1954. Crossing into Laos at an isolated border crossing, we cycle riverside trails and venture into remote villages far from the tourist track. Witness agrarian local life and untamed topography as we overnight at riverside guest houses and enjoy cruises on longtail boats, then cycle into the pristine natural haven of Nong Khiaw. We’ll finish our bicycle trip in atmospheric Luang Prabang, a beautifully-preserved town on the peaceful shores of the Mekong River.
Join us on this 13-day trip that takes us through the heart of Vietnam and Laos’ northern territories!
