This trip was everything we could have wished for and more. We would recommend this to anyone who wants a brilliant balance between seeing and doing! Thank you to our incredible tour guide Hoan who ensured we felt safe, relaxed and comfortable throughout the duration of the trip!
Cambodia was a true highlight with beautiful scenery, incredible people and excellent cycling. Vietnam offered variation and we loved the home stay! We will definitely be looking to look at future cycling trips with explore!
Very good trip. In Siam Riep, it would have been good to have some free time and maybe some trips other than to temples (e.g. land mine rats). Otherwise, a very good trip overall.

I couldn’t recommend this trip more. We loved the cycling element mixed with learning about the culture of two fascinating countries. The cycling is very flat (although hot obviously) so not too demanding. I don’t do much cycling at home but I loved cycling in the group through local towns and villages. It’s an excellent way to see the countryside, the beautiful temples and the way ordinary people live.
The hotels were really excellent too, many with swimming pools, although the itinerary was pretty full so we didn’t always have time for a swim!
Our explore guide Binh was exceptional and really made the trip for us. We had lots of laughs along the way and he and other local crew looked after the group so well.
It was amazing no better way to spend my birthday, everything was good. Saw and did a lot, wouldn’t have minded a bit more free time to let people decide what they wanted to do.

Vietnam was an amazing and varied place and Explores itinerary managed to pack in a huge variety of scenery, activities and education including places and people I wouldn't have managed to find alone. Long's leadership was brilliant keeping the teenagers engaged and encouraged to try new experiences and food.
Even though I was the only person on this trip, I cannot thank Explore highly enough for the excellent liaison with the local partners to ensure I had a safe and seamless trip. Although most days were spent in Cambodia, it was interesting having some time in Thailand and Vietnam as well. I would highly recommend this trip.
