Cycling Vietnam - Premium Adventure

Unwind at the end of each day in our expertly curated accommodation, each chosen for its location, comfort, style, and unique characteristics. The properties we typically use are on the day-to-day itinerary; however, below are a few of the notable places we stay on this trip. Hon Tam island: Hon Tam Resort (nights 5-6) Settle into a white-sand paradise with our two-night stay at the five-star Hon Tam Resort. We sleep in stylish bungalows with an open floorplan, designed to integrate with the nature outside. On our first night, dinner is included at the Sea Breeze restaurant, which serves Asian-European cuisine right by the beach. The property also has free-to-use steam and sauna rooms, jacuzzi facilities and swimming pools; plus there’s a spa with mud baths and plenty of relaxing treatments. Hue to Hanoi: Reunification Express (night 11) Our sleeper train takes us from Hue to Hanoi – a classic journey in this part of the world. It’s an essential part of the tour, linking two special destinations without flying or a lengthy coach trip. However, trains in Vietnam are not luxurious and it’s best to come prepared to maximise your experience – we’ve found extra warm layers to combat the air conditioning and ear plugs can provide a little more comfort! We stay in mixed-gender soft-bed berths, usually four passengers per berth. The trains here are safe but, as with any trip, we recommend you keep valuables with you. Snacks are normally offered on board and most trains have Western-style facilities, but some are equipped with squat toilets. Ha Long Bay: Le Journey Cruise (night 12) Experience Ha Long Bay, an icon of Vietnam and highlight for many of our groups, from the comfort of a premium small cruise ship. Enjoy views over the striking scenery from your deluxe/executive cabin or head to the sundeck to gather with the group and soak up the atmosphere. The latter is a prime spot for sunset, which you can experience with a drink in your hand from the bar. Worth knowing You can book additional nights before or after the tour, subject to availability – please enquire for details and prices. Single supplements are available (on request) and only available for 11 nights of the trip (hotel nights only – not available for the one night on the boat in Ha Long Bay or the one night on the overnight train from Hue to Hanoi). Please advise your sales representative at the time of booking if you would like a single supplement. The accommodation shown has been booked and agreed in advance; however, we may need to make changes to a property of similar or higher standard after you have booked. We endeavour to inform you of any changes in advance, which could, on rare occasions, be at late notice.
