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.

This Southeast Asian bicycle tour takes you well off Cambodia's beaten path, away from the temples and into the heart of natural wonders such as mangrove forests, secluded beaches, waterfalls, rivers and the rainforest of the Cardamom Mountains. Using boats to go deep into forests we'll explore small villages and even ancient burial sites containing cultural artifacts.
From Cambodia's capital of Phnom Penh, we ride to the Gulf of Thailand and the former resort town of Kep and spend the day cycling along the coastline through quaint fishing villages. After a day at the beach, we head north to the Cardamom Mountains and overnight at a Community Based Eco-Tourism (CBET) project that is offering locals an alternative living to logging and hunting. Here we ride on single track trails before cycling further north and an eco-lodge that also boasts the nearby Tatai waterfall.
We leave Cambodia and ride into Thailand where we'll ride along the quiet coastline of the Kingdom and visit a few Eco-based communities where we can assist in their restoration efforts. This multi country bike tour is perfect for those looking to venture away from the popular tourist attractions, enjoy a relaxed atmosphere, and get friendly with the locals.

Chiang Mai, Thailand, and Luang Prabang, Laos, were once the centers of powerful kingdoms in the highlands of Southeast Asia. Today, these two cities—steeped in rich cultural heritage—are must-sees on any travel itinerary to the region. Connecting them by bike takes you off the beaten path, through jungle-clad mountains, along meandering rivers, past glimmering Buddhist temples, and into remote ethnic villages. Over the course of 11 exhilarating days, we travel by road, trail, and boat to explore the north’s picturesque landscapes and captivating cultures.
Starting from bustling Chiang Mai, we warm up in the flat plains surrounding the Ping River before venturing deeper into the hilly terrain of northern Thailand. We ride along gravel trails and backcountry roads, visit the sacred Chiang Dao Caves, and unwind at a riverside hotel by the Mae Kok River. Next, we weave through hilltribe country to reach the city of Chiang Rai before cycling along the banks of the Mekong River to the border with Laos. This mighty river becomes our home for a couple of hours as we cruise by slow boat from the Laos border to the village of Pakbeng. Following this, we embark on a series of leg-testing days on remote national roads, surrounded by stunning mountain scenery, and overnight in quaint riverside towns. One more scenic boat journey takes us to Nong Khiaw along the Nam Ou River, followed by a final long and winding ride into the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Luang Prabang. This enchanting city is renowned for its classic temples, colonial architecture, and Old World charm. The tour concludes in Luang Prabang.
Join us on this beautiful highland journey between northern Thailand and Laos!

Northern Vietnam and Laos are relatively little-known regions in South East Asia, yet they abound with natural and cultural marvels, including extensive intact jungle landscapes and remnants of prehistoric civilizations. They are deeply connected through their shared ecologies, ethnic groups, and socio-economic evolution. On this 14-day journey, we will uncover secrets of this vast land of jungles, rivers, and mountains, an absolute dream for cyclists.
Leaving Hanoi, we ride through a series of traditional villages on the Red River Delta, towering karst mountains, refreshing forest, and fertile rice fields. We visit Hoa Lu, the former capital of Vietnam and cycle through the gigantic Cuc Phuong National park, gaining a full picture of Vietnam’s natural and political heritage. Crossing the border into Laos, we visit Vieng Xai, aka The Hidden City, with hundreds of caves used to shelter the Laos Communist Party combatants during the Second Indochina War. The ride then continues into the Nam Et-Phou Louey conservation area, where you’ll enjoy a night safari on a long-tail boat and stand a chance of spotting exotic wildlife. The next stop is the famous Xieng Khouang Plateau, the resting place of the Plain of Jars, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The region is also one of the heaviest bombed during the American War, otherwise known as the Vietnam War. Cycling among mysterious stone jars and bomb craters, we’ll learn about the significance of the plateau, which dates back to the Bronze Age. The tour culminates on the shores of the Mekong River in Luang Prabang, another World Heritage Site renowned for its colonial and vernacular architecture, glittering Buddhist temples and ascetic saffron-robed monks.
Join us on our exploration of this mysterious, absorbing region and see a whole new side of these fascinating countries!

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!

With so many islands to choose from, how does one even begin to decide on the ideal cycling route in the Philippines? This 13-day adventure set in the central island group of Visayas is our answer. We traverse four islands, riding on paved roads through countryside, jungles, and highlands, as well as skirting picturesque coastlines overlooking the Pacific. The cycling experience is enriched by plenty of stops at cultural sites, natural wonders, palm-fringed beaches and nights spent at lovely accommodations.
We meet in bustling Cebu City and take a boat to the neighboring island of Bohol. Here we spend the first three days heading into a forest for a chance to encounter the world’s smallest primates (tarsiers), marveling at the iconic Chocolate Hills and climbing into the highlands of Sierra Bullones where rice-terraces are draped over the mountainsides. After a rest day near the beaches of Anda, we discover a hidden waterfall, ride along the coast with sweeping ocean views, and visit a beautifully-preserved Spanish coral stone church. On Day 8 we ferry from Bohol over to Siquijor, a small yet beautiful island renowned for its natural charm and mysticism. Here we treat ourselves to a three-night stay at a fantastic beach resort while we explore the island’s coasts, jungles, and villages. From Siquijor, we leapfrog by boat across one island, Negros, to then get to another, Cebu! Here we saddle up and ride along the stunning coast to Moalboal, where you have the opportunity to swim with schools of millions of Sardines. A final ride takes us up and down farm-studded mountains before concluding the tour back in Cebu City.
They say “it’s more fun in the Philippines” - we say it’s even more fun on a bike! Join us on our island hopping adventure and we’re sure you’ll agree. We even wrote a blog about it; check it out here.
