Highlights
- Angkor Wat - The tour starts early in the morning with a pickup from your hotel and then takes a short transfer to Angkor Wat in time to see the sunrise. Your guide will take you to the best spots in Angkor Wat to witness the colorful sunrise. Then, you will go through the Angkor Wat central complex and hear about the history and symbolism of the temple from your expert guide.
- Bayon Temple - Once you have discovered Angkor Wat and had breakfast, you will be met with your bike. Then start the bike tour down single trails behind Angkor Wat. Follow tracks that take you through small villages in the Angkor complex, and see how the locals go about their daily lives. You will then head out to the ancient city of Angkor Thom and enter the city through the Ancient Gate, an impressive stone gate carved with elephants and Four Giant Faces. From here, continue to Bayon Temple, located in the center of the city and famed as the enigmatic faces representing the 54 provinces of the Great Khmer Empire.
- Ta Prohm Temple - Next, cycle to Ta Prohm Temple, which is your next stop before some leisure time in the late afternoon. Ta Prohm is unique in that it has been left largely as it was found overgrown by jungle trees and vines, with many parts of the temple crumbling to the ground, creating one of the most photogenic and atmospheric temples in the entire Angkor site. After all that crawling.
- Srah Srang - End your day by enjoying lunch with a large spread of Cambodian dishes beside the ancient reservoir of Srah Srang.
Your support vehicle is waiting to transport you back to your hotel in Siem Reap. If you wish to cycle back to town, your guide will be more than happy to lead the way for you. You can expect to arrive back around 2:30 pm.

Extraordinary sightseeing experience with professional route plan and tour guide. - This is my second time to Angkor Wat and I wanted to try something extraordinary. This bike tour drew my attention but honestly I was a bit hesitate to join because of the super hot temperature in Siem Reap.
The customer service was very responsive and cleared all my hesitation. They arranged breakfast and snack time for you to ensure you have enough energy to start and complete the ride. If you are too tired to continue, a Tuk-tuk is always stand by to take your around the Angkor Wat to finish the sightseeing.
The whole journey was way more enjoyable than I expected. The route doesn't have much slope that need climbing, it is mainly flat. The weather was mostly comfortable, except the last section when was already close to noon. We still managed to finish it.
My tour guide nickname called Handsome, who is a super helpful and professional one. He told me whatever I need to know and I wanted to know. He took good care of us, kept reminding us to keep hydrated, and do whatever he could to ensure our safety. Thank you Handsome, my boyfriend and I enjoyed a lot. Would definitely recommend our friend to join your tour.

Bike riding in Siem Reap - We had a wonderful experience with Sum. He showed us the best spots for photos and took us to areas uncrowded and special. I highly recommend this way to see the temples if you enjoy bike riding and great way to see the Siem Reap.

A++ experience w/ Rith and Mr Small - We had a brilliant day with Rith as our tour guide and Mr Toch as our tuk tuk driver. My partner and I were the only ones on the tour. Rith was extremely knowledgeable not only on the temples but on the quietest routes away from the busy crowds. We also had great fun learning from him about Cambodian culture and language which helped us for the rest of our holiday. Other things we really enjoyed were:
*the quality of the bikes
*refreshments throughout the tour to help deal with the heat
*exposed to rural Cambodian life on the route
*Rith’s insider knowledge on the best photo locations!
All in all it was a really fun way to explore an incredible place

Exciting Activities - They sent me a message when I booked the tour and were very kind to me. Their hospitable service allowed me to relax and have fun all day. From sunrise, we were given a clear guide to the Angkor Wat ruins, and Rith's explanations were easy to understand. It was very exciting to go into the forest that you can't reach by bus or tuk-tuk. The mountain bikes were sturdy and I was able to ride with confidence. They prepared water and fruit at key points, so they were very considerate. It had been a while since I had ridden a bicycle, especially a mountain bike, so I was worried about my physical and arm strength, but my trainee Bopha followed me behind and supported me, so I was able to cycle with confidence. I really learned a lot, as I understood that the story begins at Angkor Wat and ends at Ta Prohm. The knowledgeable Rith also taught me Cambodian words, which was fun. I spent the day with participants from various countries, so it was a really good day to be exposed to the differences in various cultures. Thank you! Orkun!

Angkor Wat by bike, you can't ask for more! - The activity was wonderful, from the first minute to the last.
It all starts with sunrise over Angkor Wat, followed by a visit to the temple and breakfast.
After breakfast we take the bike: the route is MTB, mixed asphalt, sand, paths: impossible to get lost with the expert and friendly guide Rith opening the group and with Bopha closing it.
The feeling of getting lost in a labyrinth is wonderful because suddenly you will find yourself in front of temples that will leave you breathless.
I would definitely do it again and recommend it to everyone who wants to enjoy Angkor Wat in an alternative and healthy way.

Such a fun tour - Hands down the best way to see the three temples! My wife and I not only got an amazing tour of the history of the 3 temples but also got to experience the back-roads of Siem Reap. We loved every second of it. Special thanks to Roem who was so patient and filled with knowledge to answer all our questions, take the best pics and be our cycling guide! We fully recommend this tour.

Awesome Sunrise Bike Tour - Took the Angkor Wat sunrise bike tour with the ebike option. I was the only one that day. Roem was a great tour guide, knowledge about the different locations we visited and happy to help take pictures and recommend certain particularly photogenic spots to do so. This tour and guide highly recommended and liked it so much may set off on a different one tomorrow. The ebike was a really good one too (I own 2 different ones at home, so have some experience with that).

The best way to see the temples - Voleak also known as Handsome was a wonderful tour guide. His knowledge and excitement was evident as he enthusiastically took me and another solo rider on a great road and single track ride. Proud to say we broke the record for fastest ride! This is the way to see the temples. The breakfast was out of this world in an out of the way restaurant that had tons of charm. Can’t recommend this enough.

Ride bikes at Angkor Wat! - This was a wonderful way to see Angkor Wat and the surrounding area. Mr Siton was a great guide. There are a few tricky spots, so you want to be comfortable on a bike, but you can always get off and walk if you need to. Siem Reaper service was excellent. Breakfast, lunch, and a midmorning snack of fresh fruit were all excellent. Highly recommend this tour!
