Cycling 5 days/ 4 nights Saigon - CanTho - CaoLanh - ChauDoc - HaTien - PhuQuoc

Biking Mekong Delta Vietnam. HaTien is the last province in south of Mekong Delta and located by sea. Mui Nai beach was beautiful and there were many restaurants and shops where you can have your fill of seafood, ice cream, or a cold beer. But the place is practically deserted. It was as if somebody threw a big party and no one showed up. It didn't bother me because I actually prefer it that way -- less people, less trash and noise. I brought a Henekien and had a great time soaking in the sun on the quiet beach. Vietnam Bike Tours
