Make your own way to meet your guide at a conveniently located bike shop in Siem Reap. After introductions and a safety briefing, your guide helps you to get outfitted with a high-quality mountain bike and helmet before setting out towards the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Angkor complex.
When you reach the entrance to the park, your guide helps you to purchase an Angkor Pass, which provides admission to the Angkor Archaeological Park. Then start at the famous Angkor Wat, a majestic 12th-century complex with several intricately carved stone temples that illustrate the Hindu epic, the Ramayana.
Next, follow the main road to Angkor Thom, passing stone sculptures of expressive divinities and demons. Visit Bayon Temple and admire its stone towers topped by smiling bodhisattva faces. Then wheel over to the nearby Terrace of the Leper King, Terrace of the Elephant and Royal Enclosure. Later, visit Ta Prohm, renowned for its otherworldly landscape of tall trees and sprawling root systems growing out of the temple ruins.
Throughout the day, bicycle at a leisurely pace with plenty of stops for photo ops and temple exploration. Expect to cover approximately 15–18 miles (25–30 km) on mostly flat paths and small roads; some dirt trails are unsuitable for beginning riders. Your tour includes refreshments and a tasty lunch of Khmer cuisine.
On your return in the late afternoon, pedal through small villages where you get a glimpse of rural life, before ending your tour back in Siem Reap.

Excellent way to get an introduction to Angkor. Our guide was called Wich and he was knowledgeable and very helpful. Very warm day so hard work by the end but would definitely recommend this. FYI we are in our 50s.

The Siem Reap bike tour was a highlight of our 6 week trip. Chen, our guide, played a critical roll in this. He brought us on what felt like a personalized adventure through hidden treasures of the Angkor park. He provided tons of interesting information about the history of Cambodia and each of the temples, while also giving us space at times to explore on our own. It was the perfect balance.
RE_S, Apr 2024
Really terrific, lively and kind tour guide with a wealth of historical info about Angkor, Siem Reap, Cambodia and the whole region. Just enough temples and fruit break and lunch were quite good. But bike routes between temples seemed longer than necessary, and alot of the dissertation should have been done while walking to each site. From 7:30AM to later in the day it becomes impossibly hot, making the transit uncomfortable at best, and even dangerous for dehydration reasons (although we did not lack water provided by the tour.) I would recommend a shorter more compact loop of closely clustered temples earlier in the day for the less athletic tourist like me.

This was an excellent tour, and I would absolutely do it again. Our guide, Chen, made the whole thing wonderful, and talked to us about the history of the country. It was really interesting and enjoyable. We got to see much more than what we would’ve seen on a bus tour. I highly recommend the tour and Chen as a tour guide. I would not only do this tour again, but I would sign up for any tour that Chen was leading - very knowledgeable, personable, and fun.

This tour was the perfect way to explore Angkor Wat, and its surrounding temples and area. In between temples, we cycled through some forests as well as over some asphalt streets.
Our wonderful guide Pat managed to steer us around most crowds and we could explore most areas in relative peace and quiet.
Pat explained lots about the temples overall and specific decorations and reliefs in particular, as well as the past and present restoration efforts. He also shared stories about life in Cambodia in general and expertly fielded all our questions.
From appropriate cycling speeds to taking pictures for us, providing delicious snacks and lunch, and making sure we didn't ride into low hanging branches on the off-road sections, we felt wonderfully taken care of at all times.
We never felt rushed and ended the tour with big smiles all around. For first time visitors to the area, we highly recommend this tour, as it provides much more intimate access than the typical bus drops.
Thank you Pat for the amazing day which we will fondly remember for many years to come!

Country side bicycling showing real life and housing. Nice local lunch. Temple visits with beautiful sights and interesting facts and storytelling by our guide Samnang Chan. Excellent way of spending a day

We rode with Chen and some lovely travelers to 3 temples. Chen was a very informative guide - he knew a ton about the temples and shared with us some key insights to understanding current Cambodian culture. Highly recommend!
Zoe_P, Sep 2019
We are so happy we took this tour! Biking turned out to be a phenomenal way to see the temples because we saw the countryside all around them, more than if we had taken a bus. Biking through the very large, impressive gates on either side of the temple complex was an experience I won’t forget! And the exercise was also nice! Our tour guide was very informative and happily answered our many, many questions (we’re history buffs).
I would do this tour again tomorrow if I could!

Our leader knew the bike-friendly roads and trails to take us to Angkor Wat. He also filled us in with a lot of the history of the temple complex. The weather was very hot but he helped refresh us with a good lunch and cool drinks. The chilled coconut juice when we returned was an unexpected delight.

Easy cycling but a lot more fun to go on some back roads to the temples at Angkor than by motor transportation. The tour leaders and guides were friendly and made sure everyone was safe while cycling. It was a great way to spend a day in Angkor Wat.
