Siem Reap Cycling To Sihanoukville - This Cambodia cycle tour will start in Siem Reap, where the mountain bikes have been prepared. Our cycling guide will brief you on the tour. The cycle is the best way to explore Cambodia as there is no other way to see more and get close to the people than cycling. Our guide will take you to cycle on the back road around the Angkor complex.  We cycle approximately 300 km mostly on tarmac roads on most of the days. From Siem Reap tow Phnom Penh, crossing Tonle Sap lake by boat. Getting around and out of Phnom Penh is probably the most busy traffic. So always keep the single line. We might do a little bit of transfer out the town to avoid the busy traffic. The last 15km before approaching Sihanouk Ville, is uphill but we have a support van to do transfer if needed.
