Important Information Before Your Adventure Trip with Vietnam Cycling Tours
Before setting off on your cycling adventure with Vietnam Backroads, here are some important things you need to know to ensure a safe and enjoyable journey.

Country roads in Vietnam are very narrow and winding, especially in rural villages where there are many forks and crossroads, but no traffic signs or signals. There are plenty of small concrete bridges without rails or holders. In rural areas, bicycles, mopeds, and motorcycles are the primary means of transportation.

A - Responsibility:

1. Vietnam Cycling Tours, as a specialized cycle tour operator, organizes bike tours with utmost care. However, please note that flight schedules are subject to change by airlines without prior notice, often due to factors like weather conditions. This is particularly relevant for Vietnam Airlines. We recommend allowing flexibility in your travel plans to accommodate any such changes.

Vietnam Cycling Tours' bike guides are more than just trail leaders — they are also skilled mechanics. Each guide is fully trained in mountain bike repair and is responsible for maintaining the bikes of small groups of 2 to 4 riders throughout the trip. This means you receive not only expert guidance on the trail but also hands-on support to keep your bike running smoothly every day.
