Fun Bicycle Journey Through Siem Reap's Heartlands - We went on a bike tour in Siem Reap and it was amazing! Our knowledgeable guide, Seng, and our bike mechanic, Nguey, were great, supportive and helpful. The bikes they prepared for us fit us perfectly and felt new and well maintained. We rode through beautiful villages and saw awesome views including a few temples. This bike tour let us see and learn so much about Cambodia in a fun way. We will definitely try another tour by them on our next visit to Siem Reap.

Lovely way to tour Siem Reap - Great day out with Mune & Angkor Cycling - really enjoyed seeing the local villages, waving at all the kids and seeing the lesser known temples! Nice (& active!) way to spend the day!

A slice of authentic rural Cambodian life - I can only say good things about Angkor Cycling Tour, I can't find a single flaw! I joined 2 tours with them, the"East Corner of Siem Reap" and the Angkor Wat Sunrise tour (reviewed separately). I had an amazing experience on both days. As I am a solo traveler I opted for the join-in options, and to my surprise there was just 1 other person besides me which was great...but I believe the tour would be equally great even with a larger group. This tour brought us along the dirt roads across Siem Riep's countryside across local markets and villages, rice fields and lakes, plus a couple of ancient temples as well. A slice of authentic rural Cambodian life. Our guide, Mr Seyha, speaks very good English, is very knowledgeable, and loves what he does! He shared so much about Cambodian culture and history, always in a friendly and interesting way without ever being boring. He is also very well-paced, knowing when to stop and take more time where needed, or when to move a bit faster. I am an avid MTB rider and all parts of the ride were fun yet easy enough for all levels I think. Most of the riding takes place on quiet dirt roads and trails, but there is also a bit of riding along the main roads to get in and out of town (easy). The TREK bikes they provide are in great condition and serviced regularly, their shop is also clean and organized. As for the sights...I think the pictures speak for themselves!

An awesome family ride through temples - Our family of 5 went on a private tour through temples and the village countryside. We started and ended our tour earlier that the typical packages because we have young children and prefer that they are out of the heat at peak times. We had such an enjoyable time with a knowledgeable guide, and a flexible tour that was tailored to exactly what we needed. I'd recommend Ankor Cycling any day. They had great quality bikes, baby seats, good bikes for 7-10years olds including trail-a-bike if needed, and were very helpful during from booking through to bike drop off.

Great bike tour in East part of Siem Reap. - This tour was the highlight of my visit to Siem Reap and Angkor Wat area. After a day touring Angkor Wat itself and to be honest, battling the crowds due to holiday, it was so great to be on bicycle with an awesome guide, Lun Seng, And explore some of the less crowded temples, get some exercise, and be introduced to rural life in this part of Cambodia. Tour even include a stop at Seng's rural house where we met his wife, brother , wife and child , and his mother , who had made the best spring rolls I have ever had. Seng's English is excellent , and he is extremely knowledgeable and well educated. Highly recommend !

Fantastic cycle tour - Amazing bike tour with Mr Seng who was very knowledgeable about the area, farming, temples and history. A fascinating bikeride through the countryside seeing how rice is grown and harvested, morning local markets and village life in general. Mr Seng was very considerate stopping regularly for water and shade! Highly recommend.

Great day out in the countryside - Booked this less popular tour but I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone who's already seen Angkor wat or do it as a combination of tours by this company. This is a slightly more serious ride with less stops than option 2 and part of it (along some paddy fields) has no shade and so you're in the midday sun but that said I reckon probably only 5km is like this. Most of it is off road. You will still see 3 temples including the impressive Bakon temple which being a bit further out doesn't attract the large number of crowds. I would definitely do this one again given the chance

Brilliantly organised, incredible experience. - Thanks to our brilliant guide Rayou, who helped book a cycling tour for our family of 5, we had the a phenomenal time with Angkor Cycling Tour. The guide Bobo was a delight, a fantastic leader and very in-tune with what our family could take on. We never back tracked our path, rarely if ever came across tourists and with each corner we arrived to a new and beautiful location/view. It was hard and we worked our butts off …and loved every minute of it. The staff are second to none. So sweet, very professional and the bikes were top shelf. Thank you so much for everything!!
