Having spent 3 weeks touring some of Asia's busiest cities, we've decided to come away to the seaside at Mui Ne for a bit of 'R and R'. While you wouldn't perhaps expect Vietnam to have beautiful beaches, this place certainly qualifies for the 'package holiday of the future' award - it's very quiet with clean, white, sandy beaches, palm trees and bamboo huts. We're staying at a lovely place called 'Hong Di' run by a very friendly chilled out family and Cocoa the dog - more like a child and the resort mascot than a dog!
Start from your hotel at 8 a.m.
Transferred by escort van to National road No 28 (80 km from Dalat) and start biking on one of the most scenic and quiet roads of the area. This ride will bring you from the mountain of pine hills to sandy beach of palm trees.
The biking can be divided into two parts:
-PART ONE: (~ 50 km) begin from Cau Bon, pass through coffee plantations, pine hills, rain forests, a small village of K’nop people…to the small town of Ma Lam. Lunch en route. Get on the escort van to Phan Thiet.
-PART TWO: (~ 15 km) bike from Phan Thiet to Mui Ne along one of the nicest beaches of Vietnam. Arrive in Mui Ne at 5 PM
