Overview

This is a spectacular add-on tour to complement our Vietnam Adventure Bike Tour. Over 4 days, explore Angkor Wat’s ancient temples, including an unforgettable visit at sunrise. Hike through the jungle to a waterfall, and let local guides bring Cambodia’s history and culture to life. Explore the spectacular ancient temples of Angkor Wat by bike. Local guides provide special insights and make the history come alive. Bring your tennis shoes and enjoy one day of hiking on the lush and shaded paths of Kulen National Park. See splendid waterfalls, sculptures, and carvings … and take a dip in a spring-fed pool. Visit temples at sunrise on the final day for an unforgettable experience. Gain insights into the culture and history of Cambodia. Relax at your boutique hotel in the French Quarter of Siem Reap with options for spa treatments. Ride the Angkor Bikeway and hidden trails through the ruins and forest of Angkor. Pause to visit several fascinating temple sites built in the 12th and 13th centuries, which include Buddhist and Hindu carvings and structures. See the Bayon with its serene faces and banyan trees. Enjoy the stunning and significant Preah Khan temple -- much of which has been left unrestored with plants growing among the stone structures. Stop at the atmospheric and compact Ta Som temple, with a dramatic ficus (fig) tree enveloping one of the towers. We offer traditional snacks and coconut juice to enjoy as you push on to Banteay Srei with its unique pink sandstone temple featuring intricate carvings. Your final day in Cambodia includes an unforgettable sunrise over Angkor Wat, the most iconic of all the temples. Use the soft light of early morning and the absence of other travelers (most of whom go back to bed) to explore the chambers and the inner core of the temple. Your guide interprets the stories depicted in the plentiful carvings. Leave the temple with a sense of calm and awe, and enjoy breakfast in a secluded spot by the river. Then take one final ride through the hidden trails and along the top of the defensive walls of Angkor Thom. Visit the highlight temple of Ta Prom, passing closely by the hidden Tanei temple. Set in the heart of Siem Reap town, The Aviary Hotel is a sophisticated urban oasis that has been inspired by nature and Cambodia’s rich heritage of traditional crafts. Like its namesake, the beauty and diversity of birdlife native to the Kingdom of Cambodia are celebrated throughout The Aviary's 43-room oasis.
