Bikes & Repairs
You'll be riding high-quality mountain bikes from reputable brands, chosen based on the nature of the tour and terrain. All bikes are well maintained to ensure a smooth and enjoyable ride.
Throughout the tour, your cycling guide will carry a comprehensive repair toolkit and assist with any basic mechanical issues, so you can focus on enjoying the ride. You'll only need to bring a small daypack for personal items like your camera, water, and essentials.
Please note: while we are equipped for standard repairs, we cannot cover every possible mechanical issue. If you plan to bring your own bike, it is essential that it's in excellent working condition. We strongly recommend having it professionally serviced by a certified bike shop prior to the tour to avoid complications on the road.
Support Vehicle & Logistics
To ensure your comfort and safety, a fully equipped support vehicle will accompany the cycling tour at all times. This backup van provides logistical support and peace of mind throughout your journey. The support vehicle will carry your luggage, transporting it from one overnight stop to the next, so you can enjoy your ride without the burden of heavy bags.
If at any point you feel tired or need a break from cycling, you're welcome to hop into the vehicle and relax. The van will make regular stops, approximately every 15 kilometers, to provide refreshments, mechanical support, or a rest opportunity.
Our cycling tour support system is designed to ensure a smooth, flexible, and enjoyable ride for cyclists of all levels.
Safety on Our Cycling Tours
Your safety is our top priority on every cycling adventure. For this reason, wearing a helmet is mandatory for all participants, with no exceptions. Riders who choose not to wear a helmet will not be allowed to cycle under any circumstances.
Our cycling tour guides are trained in first aid and emergency response, and they carry basic medical supplies at all times. However, it's important to understand that while we provide support, you are ultimately responsible for your personal safety during the ride.
We also recommend that all riders maintain appropriate travel insurance that covers cycling-related activities and potential medical emergencies.
Terrain & Cycling Routes in Cambodia
The terrain on this Cambodia Adventure Tour offers a diverse mix of paths, making it suitable for cyclists of all skill levels. You'll primarily ride on flat routes that combine tarmac roads and dirt paths, winding through scenic countryside and charming rural villages.
Expect to cycle along backroads that offer unobstructed views of lush landscapes, picturesque rice fields, and authentic local life. We'll take frequent breaks every 15 kilometers, giving you the chance to rest, enjoy refreshments and snacks, and capture stunning photographs of the surroundings.
Our experienced guides are skilled at tailoring the ride to meet the needs of all participants. If at any point you feel unable to complete the ride, the support vehicle will be available to assist you, ensuring a comfortable and flexible experience.
Fitness Level & Riding Experience
Our package tour is designed to accommodate cyclists of all fitness levels, experience, ages, and backgrounds. Whether you're a seasoned cyclist or a beginner, we encourage you to embrace the challenges of the journey while respecting your own personal limits.
We understand that each rider has a different pace, so our tours are flexible and tailored to ensure everyone can enjoy the experience. It's important to remember that our tours are not races; the focus is on enjoying the scenic landscapes and immersing yourself in the local culture at your own comfortable pace.
With plenty of opportunities to rest and refresh, you'll have the chance to cycle at a speed that suits you while making the most of the stunning views along the way.
Health & Medical Conditions
As our cycling tours are physically demanding, it's important that all participants are in good physical health and capable of fully engaging in the tour activities. Before the start of the tour, and at each rest stop during the trip, we require all travelers to disclose any pre-existing medical conditions or inform the guide if they are feeling unwell.
Providing this information is vital to ensuring that we can respond appropriately in case of an emergency and maintain the safety of all participants throughout the journey. The health and well-being of our cyclists is our top priority, and we appreciate your cooperation in helping us create a safe and comfortable environment for everyone on the tour.
Drinking & Hydration on Your Cycling Tour
We prioritize hydration to ensure you stay refreshed and energized throughout your bike tours. To keep you hydrated, we provide cold water, locally sourced fruit for a natural energy boost, and soft drinks - all of which are included in your tour price.
Please note that soft drinks and other beverages served with meals are not included in the tour price. While beer is readily available along the route, it is not part of the package price.
Our goal is to keep you fueled and refreshed so you can fully enjoy the stunning landscapes and cultural experiences on your journey.
Extra Expenses for Your Cycling Tour
While our cycling tour packages cover most of your needs, we recommend budgeting for additional food and drinks if you decide to explore local dining options at night or participate in optional activities. The cost of these extra activities will vary depending on your choices.
For incidentals such as souvenirs, small purchases, or tips, we suggest bringing around US$30 in cash. However, this is only a recommendation; you're welcome to bring more or less depending on your personal preferences and spending habits.
By planning for these extra expenses, you can ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience without worrying about unexpected costs during the tour.
Money & Currency Tips for Cambodia
In Cambodia, US dollars and Thai baht are commonly accepted, especially in larger cities and tourist areas. However, in smaller towns and rural villages, the Cambodian riel is often preferred. Most ATMs in Cambodia dispense US dollars, and your guides will point out the nearest machines during your tour. Be sure to spend all your riel before departing, as it cannot be exchanged outside of Cambodia.
Solo Travelers Welcome on Our Cycling Tours
We warmly welcome solo travelers alongside couples and friends on our Cambodia Adventure Tour. Our tour prices are based on twin-share accommodation, meaning if you sign up as a solo traveler, you will be paired with another participant of the same gender in your group.
However, if you prefer private accommodation, you can opt for a single room at an additional cost, available on most of our tours.
Passport & Visa Information for Cambodia
All visitors to Cambodia must hold a valid passport with at least 6 months' validity beyond the date of their planned departure from the country.
For most nationalities, you can obtain a visa on arrival at Phnom Penh and Siem Reap international airports, as well as other major entry points. The visa fee is USD $30 per person, and you will need to bring 1 passport-sized photo. For a more streamlined process, you can apply for an e-visa in advance.
