Overview
Seeing Angkor by bicycle changes the pace of the visit entirely, and this full day tour takes you from temple to temple with a professional guide leading the way.
After collecting your bike and adjusting it to fit, ride into Angkor Thom, the last capital of the Khmer Empire under Jayavarman VII, enclosed by an 8 metre high wall in a perfect square. At its centre stands the Bayon, famed for the 54 towers and roughly 200 serene stone faces representing the empire's provinces. A local lunch near Srah Srang breaks up the day before the afternoon ride to Ta Prohm, left as it was found, overgrown by jungle trees and vines and known to many as the 'Tomb Raider Temple'. Smaller sites including Banteay Kdei and Kravan round out the route.
Choose to cycle the final stretch back or ride comfortably in the support vehicle.
A full day that mixes light exercise with some of Angkor's most photographed temples.
