Hi, we had a very good and enjoyable time with Ben and the driver (whose name I couldn't recall). They were very helpful and informative. Overall, we enjoyed our time during this trip. Plus it was very relaxing. Recommended, all the way 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
The tour was fantastic, varied, and interesting—and quite a physical challenge in the heat🥵😁! Luckily for me, no one else joined, so the tour turned into a private guided tour😊. TAY is a TOP tour guide! In addition to his general knowledge, he is extremely knowledgeable about a wide variety of topics. I learned a lot of new things. He was attentive and considerate, not only toward me as a customer, but also in his interactions with everyone else. It is mainly thanks to his personality that I was able to experience such a wonderful day. Thank you very much TAY🙏!
This trip is a must do when staying in Siem Reap! A great way to see the local countryside and life. We booked a group tour, but there was just the two of us on it- our very own private tour ! We cycled all the way to the boat trip, and then enjoyed the floating villages and lakes by boat, but the amount of cycling is tailored to what you want. Ron our guide was absolutely lovely, good fun and sharing excellent local knowledge. Have to mention lunch, which was at someone’s house, and was the best food we have had whilst in Cambodia! thanks for looking after us.
Visited places areas you will not find on your own ! The happiest of guides Voleak - so eager to show his countries landmark, culture & hospitality- we had a great time with Voleak as guide, always at hand full of information making sure your trip excursion went smoothly. From start to finish from requesting to organising Siem Reaper Travel made it happen just as requested. Worth the experience you will not go wrong booking any excursion with Siem Reaper Travel! Amazing seeing the floating village and the people going about their daily life all so simple ! A wee boat run through the flooded vine yard with a local villager idyllic her navigation skills never touching hitting any tree were truly amazing 👏 Private tour on sunset where memories are made. Thanks to Voleak our guide for the amazing pictures. 2yr in a row we have used Siem Reaper Travel will they're be a 3rd - We very much hope so.
We have Ron and Toch , the most happy guide and Tuk tuk drive along the whole day cycling journey . Was very very hot day , we did 31 k .. with tuk tuk meeting us at other end - cold towels/fruits and cold drinks waiting . Amazing to experience countryside living . Wish we brought coloring materials for the kids / and undies for little ones ! If you are doing this cycling trip !! Our guide is fun and experience .. greeting kids and took us to lunch at the country home cooked meals - try bbq Cat Fish !!! The biggest smile my husband had was after lunch … he had 1 hour ‘cat nap ‘ on very cool hammock !! Well done team 👏
Exceptional day. You must do this tour if you come to Siem Reap. We cycled 45km and it's hot but you get lots of break with cold water. The bikes are in really good condition. It was so fabulous to see the villages and how the people live. The people were so welcoming everyone says hello. Our guide was superb.
I had only driven up to 20km in cycling before, but thanks to Ron's constant support for my physical condition, I was able to complete the 80km journey. I was able to feel the local atmosphere of Cambodia which is difficult to reach with normal tourism. I went sightseeing in Cambodia for 4 days and this trip with RON was the most memorable.
Great day out cycling with our guide Vandy and our Tuc tuck driver, Mr Toch. Good quality bikes. Helmets included. Cycling felt very safe. Lots of interesting stops along the way. Vandy shared his knowledge about local communities and their way of life. Lunch was super tasty. Opportunity to rest up in a hammock before cycling onto the floating village and the lake. Definitely would recommend this tour.
Our third tour with Siem Reaper and again an amazing trip. Our guide Heab Ruth was so much fun and very knowledgeable. The highlight was definitely the lake at sunset. Highly recommend this tour
Floating Village Boat & bike tour: We enjoyed this trip so much, partly because of the friendly and knowledgeable and educational guidance of our guide Muniz and TukTuk driver Mr Toch. They have made this trip a beautiful memento of Cambodia for us! Lunch was also made with such incredible love by a friendly older couple. It was very tidy, clean and cozy. Were sorry to say goodbye! We want to compliment the organization Siem Reaper for their excellent all in trip. You don't have to take care of anything yourself, everything is arranged for you. We got a good impression of the country of Seam Reap. Also from the floating village. Highly recommended to do it with this organization! Stella & Fred
