Cycle Tour of Angkor
(Tour Code: CBK 01)

TOUR SUMMARY
Cycling has to be the best way to see the temples
complexes of Angkor, nothing can compare to cycling through a
thousand years of Khmer history. Our Cambodian temple guide
will ensure that full explanations are given on all that you will
see. A remarkable facet of Angkor unlike many historical
sites is that it is a hive of activity as there are dozens of
farming communities dotted around this area, a chance to see
ordinary Cambodian people going about their everyday life. This is a
chance to se rural Cambodian life amongst a rich history.
RIDING PROFILE
We ride approximately 135 km on roads that are tarmac or
broken tarmac. There are no real technical sections and this trip
can be completed by most people.
