7:00am: You will be met up with Lotussia Travel team at your hotel in Hanoi (please advise us your hotel name upon your confirmation).

After a short introduction about the tour, you will be transferred by our vehicle to Bac Ninh province. It is possible for professtional cyclists to start the adventure from their hotel in Hanoi city center (This is optional. Because the traffic is quite busy).

After about a half hour, you will arrive the Duong riverside where the cycle tour begins. The name of the Duong River sounds intimately in the heart of every Vietnamese because of the charming and peaceful countryside the river meanders through. The numerous pagodas bordering the Duong River through history have added a major attraction to the Kinh Bac (northern) region.

We will cycle through small countryside villages, meeting up with friendly local farmers before arriving at But Thap Pagoda in time for lunch.

The name “But Thap” (Pen Stupa) was given by King Tu Duc in 1876 when, in Kinh Bac, he saw the beautiful stone stupa shaped like a pen at this pagoda, which had previously been known as Ninh Phuc Tu (Pagoda of Peace and Happiness). Visit the But Thap pagoda before continuing on to Dong Ho painting village.

Dong Ho village is famous for an old and special art form called Dong Ho. This art is attractive to the local and foreign people alike. Coming here visitors watch the artisan’s produce pictures using carved boards painted with various colors of ink.

Once in the village a visit will be made at craftsman Nguyen Dang Che’s house who is renowned for his traditional paintings.

Late this afternoon, we will be transferred by our vehicle back to Hanoi. You will be dropped off at your hotel. Trip ends.

The temperature increases a little bit compared to January. The weather becomes a little warmer with its average temperature from 14-21 Celcius degree in a day and drizzling rain and mist occur more often, especially in the morning.

February may not be the best month for cycling in Hanoi. But this outdoor activity is still available and can be arranged in advance. If you arrive in Hanoi during this period, you will have the opportunity to join in lots of local Festivals and celebrations since the TET usually comes this month. If you arrive in Hanoi about one week before Tet, you will enjoy bustling climate here, when people are in a hurry to prepare for Tet; and witness the beauty of thousand species of flowers and tree in flower markets around the city.

Lotussia Travel arranges both short long bicycle tours in and around Hanoi. Therefore, most of our biking tours will finish before the TET or commence about one week before the festival. Vietnamese people will have four day off for the TET. During these 4 days, many shops, tourist sites, restaurant will be closed.

If you would like to have just a short cycling experience in Hanoi, it is possible for you to rent an one-speed push bikes in many bicycle shops in Hanoi. These bikes are not very strong. You should you these bike for cycling in Hanoi city center only.

For longer cycling tours that are arranged outside Hanoi, we recommend high quality trek bikes and support vehicle. If the group is big, then a technical is necessary.

The capital of Vietnam, Hanoi offers a wide selection of day bike tours and short cycling excursions. The most popular bike tours are provided by local biking tour operators (www.vietnamcycling.com) such as a half day bicycle tour in Hanoi, a full day tour to Bat Trang and But Thap pagoda (Hanoi countryside cycle), one-day cycling to Tam Coc (“Halong bay inland”), three-day mountain bike trip to Pu Luong Nature reserve…

The bicycle tours in and around Hanoi can be arranged all year round. Therefore some months can have very nice weather while others do not. If you arrive Hanoi in January, you will experience the coldest month of the year. In some days, there is strong freezing wind.

Therefore, the city seems to have its busiest days of the year and streets are more crowded than usual during working hours when people are in rush to complete all the remaining works and prepare for Tet holiday. The TET, Vietnamese Lunar New Year Festival usually fall into late January or early February. Hanoi streets are crowded during this period. The half-day and one-day bicycle tour in Hanoi city center are not recommended by Lotussia Travel since the traffic is quite busy and dangerous.

The cycling tours which are provided outside Hanoi such as Cuc Phuong bicycle tour, Mai Chau biking tours, Tam Coc cycling tours…are provided as usual.

Cycling in and around Hanoi in January, you will have the opportunity to enjoy the tasty hot food of Hanoi such as noodle, hot pot and roasted dishes.

With its average temperature raging from 14-21oC, it should be fine if you come from Europe and familiar with freezing subzero degree and snowy climate at the same time in your native country. However, don’t be fooled by the temperature range because winter here is much more chilling with high humidity at 70%. Lowest temperature in a day measured during night may be below 10oC while one can barely see sunny days. Even with the sun it can be freezing cold!

If you plan a cycling tour in Hanoi in January, do not forget to bring along with you warm clothes. We recommend bicycle tours using support vehicle. If you already booked your flights and you will arrive Hanoi in January, try to finish your bike tour before the TET festival or begin the tour after the event. Contact your Lotussia Travel consultant for more information about the best time to cycle Hanoi.

In the afternoon you will visit the Thay Pagoda – a complex of temples, communal houses and pagoda nestled at the foot of a large limestone cliff formation, characteristic of the area. Built in the 11th century during the reign of King Ly Nhan Tong, Thay Pagoda consists of three sections: the outer part for offerings and ceremonies, the middle part for worship of Buddha and the inner part for worship of the monk Tu Dao Hanh, the master after whom the pagoda is named.

In front of the pagoda is a small stage built on stilt in the middle of Long Tri Pond. It is the place where water puppet performances are held during festivals from the fifth until the seventh days of the third lunar month.

We then proceed to Tay Phuong Pagoda which is situated on the top of Buffalo Mountain. This pagoda could be the most beautiful pagoda in Northern Vietnam with an ancient architecture, impressive wooden statues of Buddha and Arhats.

Bicycles are no longer the most important mean of transport of Hanoian people. Now it is the time of scooters and motorcycles. People go to work by motorbike. They go on holidays by motorbike as well. Therefore, it is still easy for you to find a bicycle shop in Hanoi.

Most of the Vietnam bicycle shops are located in Ba Trieu street where a wide selection of bicycles are offered ranging from good imported bikes for professional cyclists and made-in-Vietnam bicycles. Small bikes for kids are available as well.

Some other bicycle shops can be found on Thai Ha street as well.

Most of the bicycles being sold by local shops in Hanoi are made in Vietnam such as Thong Nhat bicycle, Xuan Hoa bicycles… The quality is medium. The price is reasonable. The bicycle models are diverse offering customers a real big choice.

There are also imported bikes such as Giant, trek bikes, BMV bikes…which are good for mountain biking. These imported bikes are usually used by tour operators, travel agents who arrange bicycle tours for their foreign customers.

“Lots of Vietnamese people are now interested in buying good imported sport bikes for their children. The price is quite high. But these bicycles are very strong and offer a high standard in terms of security. Buying a bike for their children is much better than buying them a toy. Because the bike is not only a good toy, but this is also a good sport gear for their children to do some training” – According to Trung, a bicycle shop owner in Ba Trieu street.

Every street corner has a bicycle repair man who’ll fix your punctures, pump your tyres and do repairs. But for mountain biking, that is more complicated.

The mountain bikes which are used on the tour are imported sport bikes. All the bike gears are imported and can be replaced with those are made in Vietnam. A mechanic is required when a bike has a problem.

If you book a bicycle tour, you should ask your tour operator if they provide a mechanic who will repair the bikes if there is any problem. If you rent lots of bikes for a group tour or an event, that is possible that your bicycle shop will offer a mechanic free of charge. This man will follow your itinerary on your support vehicle.

In case you only one or two bikes, this service is not offered free of charge. If you do not where you can find a bicycle repair, please contact Lotussia Travel.
