Yes, It is. The bathroom is available at every stop we visit.
Had such an amazing tour around local villagers, from crocodile farm to mushroom growing & lotus farms. The guide was great & accommodated everyone’s needs. Great afternoon on the bike.
It was a fun, informative and different kind of experience. My SO and I felt it was just the right kind of balance between the cycling and exploring. Our guide, Mr Leap, was very informative and knowledgeable. Good fun for everyone without needing any fitness. It was also easy to keep up with the guide as the traffic was nowhere near as hectic as you’d expect.
Good time, great to get out of the built up areas. We had a good guide who we called “Tuesday” because of the shirt he wore, displaying the day of his birth. As such, I became known as “Friday”. The ride was very easy, all flat and took us off the normal tourist route and therefore enabled us to see some “real” Cambodia. Plenty of rest stops in local places and a wonderful way to meet the locals.
We loved our tour guide Sokvuth and all the sights we would have never seen otherwise. Great insight into the community outside of Siem Reap and sunset drinks were a good cap to the tour.
“George” was a great guide during this fun experience. He is excited to share his knowledge and ensures when you ask a question that he provides a response and you may be surprise to learn something new. He is attentive and ensure safety at all times, including make sure you stay well hydrated. The ride gives you a great opportunity to have a bit of sense of what local life is. You go through some neighborhoods, visit a local farm, and beautiful fields (I imagine these would look more beautiful during the rainy season). George will make himself available to take pics for you at any point and welcomes questions as he is eager to share info about his culture and his beautiful country. The break Point to see the sunset is so beautiful. Despite there was a bit of clouds that prevented a clear view of a sunset, it was still a spectacular view; and it was nice to enjoy a refreshing coconut at one of the little rest bungalows. You should definitely fit this adventure in your itinerary.
