Cambodia Activated: 10-Day Cycling, Hiking, and Kayaking Adventure

Thrilling Cambodia Explored: Bike, Hike, Cruise & Kayak Through Nature's Wonders!

Bike, hike, cruise and kayak your way through Cambodia on this epic multi-activity adventure, traversing along the majestic Mekong River. Starting in Phnom Penh, Cambodia’s capital, you’ll cycle around Koh Dack Silk Island, before transferring to Kratie on the banks of the Mekong River, home of the famous Irrawaddy Dolphins. Here, we trail alongside the river passing through a diverse range of fauna and flora, settling in for a night in a traditional homestay.

After taking a boat trip to see the elusive dolphins, you’ll kayak downstream to the flooded forests of the Ramsar Wetlands, which is a famous spot for birdwatching. Next, take a full day hike to Kaoh Piek, before heading west to Siem Reap to see the magnificent Angkor Wat temple, where we explore the complex by bike. For one last final adventure, we hike the Kulen Mountain for panoramic views of the Cambodian countryside, before tucking into a farewell dinner in Siem Reap.
