Islands of the Mekong
Day Ride tour in Cambodia | half days in Phnom Penh | US$29
Enjoy a morning bicycle ride on quiet back roads, visting local communities and farmland to witness village life in the Cambodian countryside.
Away from the tuk tuks, the motorbikes, the massages, the pizza and the bars, is a truly unique experience. It's as simple as going on a pedal through the Mekong Islands that lie just north of Phnom Penh. Return to the city with a new view on Phnom Penh and on Cambodia.
