A Break by the Beach
Bite-sized tripDay 1 – Arrival at Hoi An beach
Today you will arrive at a tropical beach destination just outside Hoi An town. This is a great spot for a break in central Vietnam; with golden sands, swaying palms and a luxury resort for some serious relaxation. You can also hop in a taxi into town in 15 minutes if you want to explore the lantern-lined streets.
Day 2 – Countryside cycling tour
Spend a few hours leisurely cycling through the scenic countryside passing water buffalo, rice paddies and farms along the way. You will cross the islands on the Song Thu river delta using the ferries and floating bridges. Next up visit local artisans, stop off for a friendly chat and learn about life in this tranquil area outside the city.
Days 3-4 – Free time & departure
The rest of your time here is free to kick back and relax, finally read that book or take a dip in the resort’s pool. Atmospheric Hoi An is just a short drive from your hotel making it really easy to explore. Wander through the historic centre, stroll down the river bank or treat yourself to a feast at one of the quaint local cafes. The city is absolutely magical after dark when its streets are lit up by hundreds of colourful lanterns.
On day 4 you’ll travel onwards through Vietnam for your next adventure or head to the airport for your flight home.
