What Our Guests Say About This Tour

Beautiful Countryside

Great tour with Seyha. Lovely to get off the beaten track a bit and see the beautiful Cambodian countryside. Would definitely recommend.

— Scott W (TripAdvisor)

Great Fun and Informative

A great way to explore the countryside and rural Cambodia. We saw everything from rice fields to lotus flowers, wild buffalo -a real feel for Cambodia. It was an 18 miles Strava ride but very easy for a non cyclist. An added bonus is some of the fee goes to educate the children.

— Rachel B (TripAdvisor)

Wonderful Bike Trip!

I did a bike trip with Va around the countryside and it was really amazing.
We were really safe all the time. I also enjoyed to support their program bikes for books which help many local schools.
Highly recommended in Siem Reap!
