Saigoneer Getaways: Exploring The Mekong Delta By Bicycle
Pancake-flat roads criss-cross the Mekong Delta’s intricate water world of swamplands and paddy fields. Littered with exotic fruit orchards, sugar-cane groves and sleepy roadside cafés, it is a perfect landscape for touring cyclists. Away from the bustling traffic of Highway 1A, linking Saigon to Can Tho, the pace of life slows considerably and shady coconut palms beckon.
