Cambodia
biking a cycle tours are for those with a taste of Cambodia cycling holiday
who wish to
discover the real Cambodia! After years of being
forgotten Cambodia is now the hottest emerging destination in
South East Asia. Although tourism is growing Cambodia is still
uncrowded and a largely unexplored alternative to the more
developed Thailand and Vietnam. The ancient temples of
Angkor Wat
are undoubtedly the biggest draw in Cambodia, and discovering
Angkor by bicycle is truly a memorable experience, cycling
through the forest and emerging on temple after temple...
Cycle tours in Cambodia are a
new introduction and an excellent way of leaving the tourists
behind and exploring the real Cambodia, experiencing real
interaction with the locals. Cycling Cambodia you will discover
traditional wood and thatch villages that seemingly have
remained unchanged for centuries, witness locals tilling their
vibrant rice fields, watch barefoot children herding the family
cow, laugh as chickens scatter at you approach, and of course
exchange greetings as you pass the many Khmers whose bicycle is
their only form of transport. You will certainly be viewed with
curiosity by the friendly smiling villagers and encouraged on
your way by a chorus of 'Hello' sang by amazed, giggling
children.
As well as cycling the magnificent Angkor
Wat temples a cycle tour of Cambodia has much more to offer the
adventurous cyclist. Cycle north along the banks of the mighty
Mekong River to
Kratie,
the home of a small endangered population of Irawaddy dolphins.
Pedal east to the uplands of
Ratanakiri
&
Mondolkiri
where the 'roads' are rough and ready and the scenery
spectacular. Cruise south and you will discover the colonial
riverside town of
Kampot
with its atmospheric French architecture. Coast further south
and you reach… the coast! Passing picturesque fishing villages
before arriving in the refreshing beach town of
Sihanoukville.
To the west lies charming
Battambang,
surrounded by beautiful countryside dotted with temple topped
hills. And for the really intrepid there are the little explored
Cardamom mountains.
Experiencing a
Cambodia cycling tour is a truly unique and rewarding experience.
The rich and proud culture, impressive natural scenery, and the
spirit and warmth of the people make Cambodia an exceptional
destination to explore on a bicycle.
