Home Multi-Day Tours Cycling Tours Cycle the Backroads of Cambodia
Discover real Cambodia on a bicycle tour and experience the world’s best preserved temples, colonial towns, and the rural beauty of the countryside.
Starting your journey off in the historic capital of Phnom Penh, you will first explore and learn about the country’s tragic history before embarking on a bike tour that will take you to many varied and beautiful destinations. Cycle through the port town of Kampong Chhang and colonial Battambang, as well as remote villages and across gentle rivers. The quiet rural paths that dot the countryside make for a perfect place to explore by bike. Your journey ends in Siem Reap, at the magnificent temples of Angkor, which is the heart of the Great Khmer empire and home to Angkor Wat, the largest religious monument in the world.
Suo Sdei! Welcome to Cambodia.
Upon arrival, please look out for the Siem Reaper Travel welcome sign at the arrivals gate. We will transfer you to your hotel, where you can take your time and relax by the pool or venture out for your first exploration of the capital city.
In the early evening, your guide will meet you at the hotel reception where a trip briefing will be held. Then, you will enjoy the creative Cambodian cuisine.
Start your adventure on a mountain bike by crossing the river by local boat and then riding through the villages on an island in the Mekong River. The island is famous for silk weaving, agriculture, and aquaculture. Stop to see locals at work in the village and enjoy cycling on quiet roads through orchards and along rice paddies. Then return to Phnom Penh in the afternoon for lunch.
Then, your guide will take you to explore Phnom Penh, which remains a living relic of the country’s past struggles. We head out south of the main center of the tourist side to Toul Sleng. Toul Sleng was a former high school that was used as Security Prison 21 (S21) under the control of the Khmer Rouge from 1975 to 1979. We tour the complex for an hour before heading back to your hotel.
You’ll ride on a top-quality mountain bike that has been designed to be both comfortable and durable. All bikes come with front suspension and offer a great ride whether you’re off-roading or going for a leisurely ride.

We had a wonderfully organized vacation thanks to Siem Reaper Travel and our tour guides and support staff. There are so many advantages that I can’t think of a better way to avoid a 10-day bicycle trip in Cambodia. The accommodations on this trip were of a higher standard than the previous company I chose last year. All were spotless, and the room sizes were generous. Although the cycling in Battambang and Siem Reap was excellent through rural villages and quiet backroads, especially around the Angkor Wat temples. Our tour guide (Borith) was superb. He was cool, calm, and collected at all times, friendly, helpful, and always smiling. The average distance cycled was 35 km per day, which was literally great. The bikes they provided were very clean and well maintained. We also had really great food, brilliant snacks were provided and all the backup support team, as well as the bus and truck drivers, were lovely.
