Great morning, getting out of SR and seeing daily life in the surrounding villages. My guide Bota was great, full of knowledge, highly recommended. My only suggestion is to request a better saddle for the bike or wear some padded bike shorts. Otherwise we had a great morning visiting markets, a monastery and seeing everyday life of Cambodia.

We had an amazing bike tour on the half day countryside bike tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and made the tour very interesting. The countryside was beautiful and visiting the vegetable, mushroom and lotus farms were really good. The bikes were excellent quality and felt very safe. I loved getting out of the city and seeing the beautiful countryside!
Absolutely loved riding through the countryside with our guide from Asia backgrounds travel! We went from the busy city to calm rice fields on our bikes. We rode on quiet backroads, met nice locals, and saw lively markets and farms. It's a short but cool adventure away from the usual stuff. Definitely recommend trying it!
We just finished our countrysidebike tour with Asia Backroads Travel. From the pick-up to the finish were very well looked after and we enjoyed every minute. We cycled past local villages and through the countryside. We also had a chance to learn about the history and daily life of the local people. The bikes were great and they also provided snacks during the tour which was an added bonus .
After thorough research, we chose Asia Backroads Travel for our Siem Reap cycling adventure, and they exceeded our expectations. From professional communication to on-time pick-ups and well-equipped bikes, everything was seamless. Exploring off-the-beaten-path tracks revealed stunning countryside views and unique photo opportunities, offering a different perspective of Siem Reap. Our journey included visits to local villages, engaging with farmers, and experiencing the local market's vibrant colours. The tour was a perfect blend of information, scenic beauty, and unforgettable moments, including a close encounter with a water buffalo. We highly recommend Asia Backroads Travel for an authentic and immersive Siem Reap experience.
