Tour description

Escape the ordinary and cycle through landscapes where time slows and nature speaks.

This 3-hour guided bike tour takes you beyond the usual tourist trails, deep into Ninh Binh’s countryside, where rice paddies shine under limestone peaks and village life flows with peace.

We start in the iconic Tam Coc area, following quiet riverbanks and golden fields. Visit Thai Vi Temple, then ride to Bến Thánh viewpoint to admire Tam Coc’s boat-filled waters and the dragon peaks of Hang Mua from afar.

Next, we enter Côi Khê Village, a place untouched by mass tourism. Discover real rural life: seasonal rice farming, vegetable gardens, buffalo grazing beneath cliffs. Your local guide shares stories of daily life, tradition, and harmony with nature.

We stop by Bich Dong, an ancient pagoda hidden among the trees, sip fresh coconut under shady groves, and take in the peaceful rhythm of the countryside. What makes this tour special is the route itself, a scenic loop that offers something new at every turn: riverside paths, rice fields, village lanes, and limestone ridges.

Whether you’re a nature lover, curious explorer, or seeking a quiet escape, this journey will leave you refreshed and inspired.
