About this tour

Embark on a Cycling Odyssey Through the Heart of Guizhou’s Hidden Villages

This nine-day journey is designed for the adventurous traveler seeking to move beyond the scenic postcard and pedal directly into the living culture of Guizhou. Beginning in the provincial capital of Guiyang, you’ll quickly trade the urban skyline for the breathtaking landscapes and timeless traditions of Southeast Guizhou. The route is a carefully crafted blend of physical challenge and profound cultural immersion, taking you on a two-wheeled exploration along winding country roads, through terraced rice paddies, and into the heart of remote Miao and Dong ethnic minority villages.

Your adventure unfolds over six days of cycling, covering diverse terrain and manageable daily distances that allow you to absorb the journey at your own rhythm. From the first welcoming ceremony in Langde to the final, iconic drum towers of Zhaoxing, each day brings a new vista, a new community, and a deeper connection to a region where ancient customs thrive. This is more than a bike tour; it is an intimate passage through a storied landscape, where every climb rewards you with panoramic views and every descent leads to a warm encounter and a glimpse into a way of life preserved for centuries. Prepare for an unforgettable expedition that challenges the body, enriches the mind, and captivates the soul.
