Day 2: Rayong-Chantaburi (Cycling 60km)

(B,L,D)Breakfast at the hotel. Start biking to the mangrove study center at around 60km. On the way, we stop and pay visits and talk to local people, and see how they earn their livings. At the mangrove, we can walk around and visit one of the most successful forest restoration projects in Thailand. Then check in and spend the night in Chantaburi. Dinner at a local restaurant.

Day 3: Chantaburi-Pailin (Cycling 47km) (B,L,D)

Breakfast at the hotel. Transfer to Pongnamron and start cycling to the border 27km. After the immigration, lunch at a local restaurant. Then cycling 20km to Pailin town located on the foothills of the scenic Cardamom mountains. Pailin used to be Khmer Rouge Strong-hold survived by trading gem stones. Until 1998, Khmer Rouge demobilized their forces into the government army, then the town had got completely peace. The town is now home to some of the former Khmer Rouge leaders who are – now in jail awaiting an international tribunal. After cycling on the dirt red bumpy road, we arrive in the small dusty town of Pailin. View sunset at Phnom Yat to overlook Pailin. This temple on Phnom Yat hill is more for the Kula Muslim minority who earn their living in the gem stone business. The Muslim minority made up 5% of the whole population in Cambodia. Return to the hotel for a shower and welcome dinner. Overnight in Pailin.

Day 4: Pailin-Battambang (85km) (B,L,D)

Breakfast at the hotel. Fill the water and briefing on the road condition and water stop. After the town, there are a few climbs and then downhill. Watch for large potholes, and cows might be crossing the road with the string so there might a trap. We cycle along this Cadarmom mountain range passing the rice field and we won’t be tired as the kids like to say hello and wave from their houses. Recently, the road from Pailin to Battambang has been improved. We stop for water, snack, and drink under a big shade of a tree. Then continue cycling another 20km before stopping for lunch in Sneung overlooking a nearby temple near the road. A little rest on the mat would be good. After lunch we cycle another 20km to Phnom Sampov, overlooking the hilltop pagoda and the cave. Just 15km to Battambang, we do a bit of transfer to avoid the busy traffic in town. Battambang used to be the second biggest city but now become a relaxed town where Siem Reap is getting more boom. Situated on the bank of the Sangker River, Battambang has many French colonial buildings and traditional Cambodian houses. It is worth taking the Bamboo train as the local railway is running only twice a week for passenger trains and the cargo train is running more often. So local people enjoy taking more bamboo trains. Overnight in Battambang.

Day 5: Battambang-Siem Reap (18km) (B,L,D)

An early breakfast before cycling for 15 minutes to board the boat to Siem Reap. The boat has a toilet and life jacket and takes about 6 – 7 hours. It is one of the best boat trips in Cambodia to cross the Sangker river viewing the fishermen and all their activities on the river. Then crossing Tonle Sap lake (South East Asia’s largest freshwater lake). It is the main reserve for water when the Mekong is flooded, without the lake, Cambodia will be flooded every year. In the rainy season, the water reaches 10,000 square Km when it is only 5,000 square km in the dry season. The lake is as important for the human being and the fish, birds, and other wild animals. One hour before reaching the dock, the boat passes Prek Toal Bird Sanctuary home and breeding area for thousands of water birds. After crossing Tonle Sap lake, we arrive at Chong Kneas floating village. The village combines Cambodian, Muslim, and Vietnamese and they move up and down depending on the season. All the houses are floating with the support of bamboo. After arrival at the dock, get off and prepare to ride a bicycle 15km to our hotel. Overnight in Siem Reap.

Day 6: Siem Reap-Angkor Complex (25km by bicycle) (B,L, D)

Depart from the hotel on the main road and cycle through Angkor pass check point. Cycling through the shady road with a little pumping because of the few pot holes. There you will begin to see Kravan temple, Banteay Kdei, and stop at the famous Ta Phrom, embraced by the roots of enormous fig trees and gigantic creepers. Visit Ta Phrom (45 minutes-1 hour). It was built in the 12th century by the famous King Jayavarvan VII indicated to his mother. While clearing back the forest archaeologists decided to leave the vegetation of Ta Phrom in place to serve as a reminder of how the original discoverers found it and the other Angkor temples. Many of the trees have grown around and through the remains and soar high above the temples. Continue the cycling through a small circuit passing Ta Keo temple, Chao Say Tevoda, and Tommanon before reaching Angkor Thom city. There you will see, the Terrace of Leper King, the Terrace of Elephant, Baphoun, and Phimean Akas. Stop at Bayon temple and start the visit (45 minutes-1 hour). Angkor Thom was built by Cambodia’s great king, Jayavarman VII. Overnight in Siem Reap.

Day 7: Banteay Srei and River of Thousand Lingas (90km)(B, L, D)

Depart from the hotel on the main road. Arrive at Angkor Wat and turn left to the west. Continue to cycle 2km before turning right to the rural road. The road is good for cycling as you can avoid the busy traffic but you can see rice fields, villages, and a pagoda. Arrive in Banteay Srei before lunch. Visit (45 minutes) Banteay Srei temple known as the women's citadel (built in 967 A.D dedicated to Brahma). While some of the temples are impressive because of their sheer size, Banteay Srei stands alone in the quality of its construction and decoration. Its pink sandstone walls are decorated with what some consider the best carving of all, and are still in an excellent state of preservation. Continue cycling to visit Kbal Spean, the River of Thousands Lingas, lying under the river bed, people believe it brings fertility and blessing Angkor area as the river flows to Siem Reap. Walk 1,200meters to visit the Lingas and enjoy lunch and the waterfall. On the way back, cycle on the main road to visit the Landmine Museum of Mr. Akira.
