Tour Overview
Saigon | Huế | Hội An | Angkor Wat | Siem Reap
This bike trip in Southeast Asia covers two culturally rich countries, Cambodia and Vietnam. Upon arrival in Saigon, be immersed in local tradition at an AO Show at the Saigon Opera House, a National Relic. This must-see performance of dancers and artists sets the stage for the Vietnamese heritage you’ll witness on your cycling trip. Take a scenic boat ride along the Saigon River, then explore the fascinating Cu Chi underground tunnels. Continue pedaling along quiet back roads and witness rice paper-making and workers tending to their fields. Moving on to Huế, visit the majestic Imperial Citadel, a UNESCO-recognized site housing the Forbidden Purple City, the former home of the Imperial Court. Cycle a countryside loop through Phuoc Tich to traditional villages and local markets, then visit the famous royal tomb of Emperor Minh Mang. Pedal past coconut palms and dunes en route to Lang Co Beach before transferring to Hội An. Cycle to My Son, past rice paddies and eucalyptus forests, to the ancient spiritual center of the Cham Kingdom and Thanh Dong, the first and only organic farm in the Hội An and Quang Nam province. Head to the bustling Vy’s Market, take a hands-on cooking class and a guided walking tour of Hội An, and visit the picturesque Ta Prohm Temple. Finally, move on to Angkor Thom, the capital of the Great Khmer Empire and home to Angkor Wat, the largest religious monument in the world.

- As with any Sojourn trip, every single element of this trip was developed by the Sojourn crew and is not outsourced. The Sojourn commitment of impeccable service, world-renowned luxury hotels, carefully designed routes, custom fitted bikes, professional leader support and unwavering attention to details, stays firm.
- The trip starts in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam. You can choose to fly into Ho Chi Minh City from the US or through other two international airports in Vietnam (Danang or Hanoi).
- The trip ends in Siem Reap, Cambodia. From Siem Reap, you can choose to connect through Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Hanoi, or Bangkok, Thailand.
- A lot of the gourmet restaurants where we dine offer specially prepared limited or fixed menus featuring regional cuisine. So selecting off the main menu might not be an option.
- Language is never an issue in Vietnam or Cambodia. Most folks in the cities speak English. In the rural areas where we spend a considerable amount of time, you will always be supported by your Sojourn leaders, both of who speak all local languages and English fluently. You can also choose to download Google Translate Offline App on your phone that will work even when you aren’t connected to the Internet.
- Your travel experience through South-East Asia will most likely be different than many of the other countries of the world. One of the most charming regions also throws some challenges at times. We have worked extremely hard to ensure you have the experience of your lifetime and tried to remove as much difficulty as possible. However, developing nations like Vietnam or Cambodia still struggles with the noise level, some degree of pollution and sometimes less than ideal road conditions. To ease the riding experience, we offer only hybrids and mountain bikes for this trip. They are safer and way more comfortable than road bikes with drop handlebars.
