Product Info

Trade the lanterns and riverside cafés of Hoi An’s Old Town for the quiet rhythms of the countryside and ride one of Discova’s most popular cycling tours, a relaxed half-day journey led by an expert local guide through backroads, rice paddies, and small villages. We designed this bike tour for a truly immersive experience with no rush and no pushy shopping stops, limited to no more than 8 guests. The ride moves at an easy pace with time to stop for photos, taste local snacks, and enjoy authentic encounters.

We start from our shop in town with a short bike fitting and safety briefing before setting out through quiet backstreets and across the bridge that connects Hoi An to the southern villages of Quang Nam Province. The ride soon opens up to peaceful countryside roads lined with coconut palms and vegetable gardens, where locals head to the fields on bicycles. Along the way, your guide shares stories of village life and explains how these communities continue to balance tradition with the changes tourism brings.

Our first stop is a small family kitchen, where bánh bèo (steamed rice cakes) are prepared for breakfast using the traditional method. It’s a simple, delicious insight into daily life in the countryside before we continue riding to one of Hoi An’s most beautiful villages, where we stop at a family home to learn about the tradition of family chapels. From here, the route follows small canals and waterways towards a wooden boat-building site. Fishing remains the lifeblood of the province, and the sight of craftsmen shaping hulls by hand is a highlight for photographers. If the timing is right, you’ll also see families gathered by the shore cleaning their fishing nets between journeys at sea. Our final stop is a family-run distillery, where traditional rice-based spirits are still crafted using methods passed down through generations.. You’re welcome to sample a glass, or for the adventurous, try the stronger local version infused with herbs! After that, it is time to ride back to Hoi An.

This Discova Experience includes your bicycle, helmet, snacks and the support of a licensed bike guide. Covering around 20 kilometers of flat, quiet roads, the route is suitable for anyone with moderate fitness. What makes this ride special is Discova’s connection with the local families you’ll meet as we’ve worked with them for years to ensure your visit helps support their community in small but meaningful ways.
