This was my third trip with G Adventures. The Cambodia & Thailand adventure was another amazing, unforgettable trip. Our CEO, Chan, was terrific. He worked so hard but also made it look so easy to keep us on schedule while arranging so many transports, activities and meals during our trip. His knowledge of the area and his fun energy made the trip even more special. The small group that we traveled with started as strangers but soon became fun and interesting travel companions adding even more enjoyment to our trip.

The Mekong, Southeast Asia’s longest river, is the lifeblood of southern Vietnam and Cambodia. Its floodplains harbor a cycling paradise, from the braided waterways and lush greenery of the Mekong Delta to the endless rice paddies and heritage sites of rural Cambodia. On this 9-day bike tour, we explore the lifeways, histories, and cuisines spanning the lower reaches of the Mekong as we connect the electrifying modern city of Saigon with the venerable ancient temples of Angkor.
We meet in Ho Chi Minh City (a.k.a Saigon) and head south into the heart of the Mekong Delta, spending three days cycling on quiet backcountry roads in a serene world of coconut farms and rice fields. We rattle over small bridges or hop on local ferries to cross rivers. We also spend time on the water, delving into the aquatic commercial frenzy of Vietnam’s largest floating market at Cai Rang and cruising up the Mekong River on a speedboat to reach Cambodia’s capital, Phnom Penh. From here we head north, layering our tires with grit from the Kingdom’s notorious red-dirt roads, to reach the sleepy backwater town of Kampong Thom and the ancient, jungle-covered ruins of Sambor Prei Kuk. And finally we arrive in Siem Reap where, riding on paths perfect for mountain biking, we’ll explore the UNESCO World Heritage-listed, majestic temples of the once-glorious Khmer Empire, including, of course Angkor Wat, the world’s largest religious monument. The tour ends in Siem Reap.
Join us on this captivating journey through the heart and soul of southern Vietnam and Cambodia!
If you want to explore more of Cambodia and then continue onwards into Thailand, then join our Saigon to Bangkok by Bicycle tour. The first 8 days between Saigon and Siem Reap are identical to this trip, with a further 6 days subsequently leading to Bangkok, Thailand.

The Wall of China has to be seen to be believed. You can read the fact that it is 5,500 miles long but the real impact is to see it stretching away from you for miles which ever way you turn. The sheer feat of human endeavour shouts out from every laid brick.

Felt there could have been a tweak to the itinary at the beginning. Due to the late flight we did not go to bed until 2pm and had to be in the meeting after breakfast by 8.30am. There was then a very long day and we did not get back to the hotel until 19.30. I felt this could have been shortened as it included stops at juice stalls, cafes etc and these could have been optional.Otherwise I think the itinary was excellant in terms of sights covered.
