Great day on bikes with Bobo! - What a great day with Bobo! We had one day to see the temples and this was everything we’d wanted and more (including a great workout). Bobo took us to sunrise at Angkor Wat (bucket list checked!) and knew the best spots for pictures and places to avoid crowds. The bikes were GREAT and the biking was fun and an adventure in a good way! I would highly recommend this for anyone who is moderately fit and comfortable on a bike. Bobo was wonderful and he gave us great information on the temples and the area without exhausting us with too many details. Really loved our day - thank you, Bobo, for a well planned out day on bikes at the temples!

Absolutely loved - 10 Stars! - I loved this small group cycling tour. Our guide Seyha was very easy to get along with, knowledgeable, communicated with clear English (better than mine) and had a professional manner. I experienced and learned so much during the tour. If I could, I would give 10 stars for this tour and Seyha. I loved this tour so much and I booked another tour through Angkor cycling Tour.

Fun active exploring - This is a really great way to explore Angkor Wat. There are some lovely off road trails to get away from the crowds on the roads and the tours around the temples. You don’t have to do these if you would rather the roads though. You can access more remote temples in the trees. May was a nice time as much quieter but not much rain yet. I am a solo female traveller and felt really comfortable with my guide BoBo. Bobo spoke great English so it was interesting to learn more about Cambodian life too. I highly recommend this tour. In fact I enjoyed it so much I went out again the next day on another tour.

The Best Way to Visit Angkor! - Had an absolutely fantastic day exploring Angkor with Seyha!
Picked up at 4.30am from our hotel to catch the sunrise and he secured us a great spot ahead of the crowds. Once the sun rose, we had a great tour of Angkor Wat before picking up our bikes. Nice bit of off-roading between the temples (but nothing too challenging, just good fun!) and stopped for breakfast and lunch at cute places inside the complex. We knew it was going to be a very warm day, but managed to get around the sites we wanted to see before it got too hot in the afternoon. And Seyha sorted us out with some great photos!
Can’t recommend these guys enough! I honestly don’t know why more visitors don’t cycle when visiting Angkor - and if you do, these guys are perfect! Thank you Seyha for a great day, and Solin for organising everything (along with cold towels and water when we got back to their office!) 😍

Another tick off the bucket list. Great day! - Most importantly, our guide, Seyha was amazing and so knowledgeable. I learnt so much! We were lucky that it was just my husband, myself and our daughter on this particular trip so we really did have such a personal experience. Watching Angkor Wat appear on the skyline at sunrise is a magical moment that will stay with me for a long time. And the bike ride was such fun and we got to visit lots of other temples too, stopping for a great lunch on the way. Would definitely recommend Angkor Cycling Tour who have a great variety of tours to suit your needs.
