These epic treks are made for the adventurous \u2013 it\u2019s both challenging and breathtaking as you discover a mysterious and ancient limestone world. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n For something a little more sedate but no less adventurous, cruise by traditional sampan boat over the incredible water world of the Mekong River Delta. A journey across this unique area opens your eyes to extraordinary communities of people you just won\u2019t find anywhere else in the world. The Mekong Delta starts in the Himalayas, before winding itself through China and Thailand and moving on through Cambodia before reaching Vietnam.

Travel by water through M\u1ef9 Tho\u2019s orchards and pagodas, and C\u1ea7n Gi\u1edd Biosphere Reserve\u2019s wetlands and mangrove forests, before hopping on motor carts to whizz through the jungle’s roads.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It\u2019s all sand between your toes as you prepare to take on the legendary red and white dunes of Mui Ne. Yes, Vietnam has a secret desert feel to it too. Located in a small fishing village on the south coast of the country, this is the place to come when you want an exhilarating adventure surrounded by endless sand. Travel by quad bike across the dunes before sledding down the sand on boards. Prepare to sled over and over again \u2013 it gets very addictive. Sunrise and late afternoon are the most beautiful times to come, as the light hits these spectacular geological formations for Instagram-worthy photos<\/a>. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Both an enchanting and invigorating ride, cycling through the rice paddies of Sapa takes you on a challenging mountain bike experience of breathtaking views, undulating valleys and verdant terraced paddies.
