"We've now been back from our holiday for a couple of weeks and just had to write to thank you again for the tour you organized for us in Vietnam. Everything went smoothly - the 3 guides who took care of us along the way were excellent (friendly, knowledgeable and helpful).
"I have been booking Hotel rooms through www.indochinaguides.com for the past year - reason being it is able to give very good rates and fast service. I have tried other websites before but none of them can match that of indochinaguides.com for geting value-for money Hotel rooms in Vietnam"
More tourists return every year to stock wardrobes with their own creations made cheaply in Hoi An. Prices are rising but this is still one of the cheapest places to shop on earth!
The tailor shops in Hoi An carry many different fabrics. You will find an array of different colours, patterns, textures & quality of fabric.
Catch up on the unique scenery and countrylife of Vietnam, see the Thuong River as you journey north with rice terraces. Mountainous views and travel of the beaten track, meeting local people and your host family. Cycling through villages, seeing a very famous pagoda in Vietnam, the 1000 year old DaHuong Tree, these are the attractions of the Tour, sharing mealtimes and ideas with the host family accompanied by rice wine. Peaceful villages, a rural landscape in a tranquil setting, where there is no hustle and bustle of city life, very few Westerners have seen this side of Vietnam life, and the local people keep their original lifestyle and Vietnamese culture
Highlights:Length:15 Days (Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City) See the house where Ho Chi Minh once lived, Meet furry-faced monkeys in the Cuc Phuong National Park, Experience historical Hue by bicycle, Conquer the spectacular Hai Van Pass, Have a whole new wardrobe tailored in Hoi An, Cycle off the beaten track in the remote Central Highlands, Unwind on the shores of the South China Sea, Experience the energy of Ho Chi Minh City. 30,000,000 Vietnamese can't be wrong - handle-bar height gives you the best view of Vietnam. Cycling through this beautiful country provides opportunities to meet the local people and experience the local culture in a way that wouldn't be possible otherwise. So come with us and get active as we travel from Hanoi to Saigon, down country lanes and over spectacular mountain passes. And all the exercise gives you the perfect excuse to indulge in delicious Vietnamese cuisine.
When most Americans think of Vietnam, they think of the war. Most Vietnamese, however, are too young to remember the war or they were not yet born when it ended. Today, the Vietnamese are very friendly to all foreigners and eager to show off their country's natural and cultural beauty. In late February 2006, I joined a 2 week bicycle tour heading north from Ho Chi Min City (formerly Saigon) to Hanoi. Late winter is one of the few dry seasons in Vietnam. Spring through summer is the rainy season along the coast. Fall through early winter is the rainy season in the highlands. Thanks to Kris for this photo.
