Escape the hustle and bustle of the city and immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of Cambodia's countryside. Meet your expert tour guide at Gingold Coffee at 7:30 AM, and get ready for an unforgettable adventure.
Our journey begins at 8:00 AM from Cafe shop. After a brief safety introduction, we’ll cycle towards the outskirts of the Angkor Archaeological Park, heading into the serene countryside where life has remained largely unchanged for centuries.
After a scenic 10 km ride through quiet paths and hidden backstreets, we’ll visit a local rattan basket weaver. Discover the intricate craft of weaving, observe a master at work, and even try your hand at this age-old tradition.
Next, we hop back on our bikes and continue through lush rice fields and past grazing buffalo. Our destination is a traditional Cambodian noodle shop, where you'll get to savor Num Banh Chok, a beloved staple of the Khmer diet.
We’ll then take a short ride to a charming village house, where we’ll relax and enjoy some delightful local snacks. This stop provides a unique chance to witness everyday rural life, with traditional building techniques reflecting the simple, yet enduring, lifestyle of the Cambodian countryside.
Our adventure continues as we head to the West Baray, an ancient man-made lake from the Angkorian era. Here, we’ll cycle along the peaceful banks, watching fishermen at work and spotting birds gliding gracefully overhead. Expect to return to Siem Reap around noon, full of memories from this tranquil escape.
