Hanoi cycling tour Bat Trang Village

One day tour biking to the traditional pottery village and rolled rice pancake making village will pull you out of the hustle and bustle of Hanoi capital. Taking this biking tour, you will have the chance to visit Bat Trang village which is famous for its high-quality ceramic and pottery products, learn how to make a handicraft pottery and immerse yourself in traditional culture as well as the local's daily life. 

08.00 AM: You will be picked up from your hotel in Hanoi by our guide and taken by taxi to our bike store.

After 20 minutes we arrive at a small village on the other bank of the Red River. The biking guide will give a short briefing about the bikes such as how to change gear (there are 24 gears), and some useful information about the biking trail. We then enjoy a cup of tea or coffee at a local shop before peddling to Bat Trang.

We start riding along the dike & the Red river for few kilometers before joining a small biking trail that winds through the fields of corn, vegetables and fruit. We cycle almost entirely on the back roads through nature and peaceful countryside villages.

After about two hours, we arrive in Bat Trang, a typical small village of Northern Vietnam lying some 15 kilometers southeast of Hanoi, on the left bank of the Red River. The village is renowned for the outstanding quality of its ceramic and pottery products.

After lunch in a local restaurant, we will take a short walk through the village to see the ceramic market, Bat Trang temple, and communal house. Discover the real local life as you walk through the tiny alleys branching off to the right and left.

Before starting the ride back, you may want to make a stop at a local workshop to learn all about the pottery process and even try making your own piece, before saying goodbye to your teacher and heading off again.

We enjoy another two hours of cycling on quiet roads back to Hanoi.

Upon arriving back at our bike store around 16:00, you will be taken by taxi back to your hotel, where the trip ends.
