Agriculture remains a crucial part of Vietnam's economy, and our Vespa tour takes you on a journey through the countryside to experience it firsthand. We'll start by riding out of Hanoi through Long Bien Bridge and onto an 800-year-old village, where you'll witness the daily life of people in rural areas. Along the way, we'll make a scenic stop at a bonsai garden to learn about this intricate art and see some of the stunning plant creations. You'll also have the opportunity to meet a local family living in a 200-year-old traditional Vietnamese house. Our guide will assist as a translator while you chat with them over some candy and tea, giving you a glimpse into their lives and traditions.
Our Vespa tour takes us through the serene banana and vegetable farming area of Red River Island, where we'll ride past picturesque green rice paddies and venture off the beaten path onto a dirt road. This road leads us to the Co Loa citadel temple, a historical site with stunning scenery and an intriguing legend associated with setting up and protecting the country from foreign invaders dating back to 300BC. As we explore the area, we'll have plenty of chances to stop and take photos of the beautiful surroundings and the locals working on their farms. This will be a unique opportunity to experience the rural life of Vietnam and witness the beauty of the countryside.
