Enjoy a picnic lunch at an enticing, crystal clear waterfall, where you can cool off before we continue on our journey. We travel through the A Shau Valley, a famous battleground during the American war, before descending to Hue City in time for sunset over the Perfume River.

ON in Hue.

Homestay in Chay Lap Village

Riding out off Hue and following a unique coastal route we stop for a special seafood lunch at a local beach. Dive into the pristine ocean water before we continue onto Hai Van Pass, the highest point on Highway 1. We ride on wide open roads, free from traffic and with unmatched scenery before reaching the famous China Beach. We stop for a cold drink at this recreational landmark before arriving in Hoi An.

(Approx. 530km)

Optional Abseiling at Marble Mountain on day 1:
We walk up Marble Mountain into the rappelling area, which takes about 10 to 15 minutes.
The first rappel is a short walk from the practice area and enjoys a fantastic view of the ocean. This 22 meter line has great exposure, fantastic scenery and makes you feel like you are much higher than you actually are.
Then we do our final rappel; a monster 50 meter drop into a gaping hole so deep and dark that you can’t see the bottom. This fantastic cave rappel drops right out of the jungle down into a temple chamber. Get ready for a full on Tomb Raider experience!
