Leave Hanoi at 08.00 and head south for a 2-hour drive along Highway One. Arrival to Hoa Lu, take our bicycles. We then start cycling to visit the two remaining temples of the ancient citadel of Hoa Lu. Our morning continues with a 1 hour cycle to Tam Coc (12km), just passing scenes of local village life and rice paddies.

Arrive at Tam Coc by lunch, we check in Hotel for a break and have lunch.

At 13: 30 PM we cycle for 20 minutes from Tam Coc to Thung Nang wharf for an hour boat trip to visit Thung Nang. This new boat route takes us off the tourist trail and along an undiscovered route. The boats are waiting for you to head back for another exciting cycle in the afternoon to Ninh Van – a stone handicraft village. On the way you will experience a wooden boat ride – using local transportation.

Ninh Van located 5km from Tam Coc, here you have a chance to see many sculptures shaping up under artist’s hands and visit to an old stone villa. Around 17: 00 we say goodbye with the village and cycle back to our Hotel.

After breakfast we get on our bus for a half an hour drive to the gate of Dong Giao Farm. Here we cycle for 18km through pineapple and corn farms. We continue another 10km cycle from Nho Quan to the gate of Cuc Phuong national Park.

At 12: 00 midday enjoy a long lunch break at Cuc Phuong Park Restaurant, recharge your energy for another 19km cycling to the centre of the park. We will start again around 2pm and make a couple of stops along the way to visit the Cave of Ancient Man. Upon arrival at the park, we have a short walk through the park and a drink break before boarding the bus again.
