Peregrine Adventures

Saigon to Angkor Cycle (14 Days)

A great way to discover these two amazing countries is by bike. We start out from Saigon were we mount our bikes and head to out to the infamous Cu Chi Tunnels. We enjoy the hospitality of our host family in the Mekong Delta before crossing into Cambodia visiting the amazing splendours this country has to offer including the incredible Angor Wat temple complex. This is neither an endurance test nor a marathon survival race from one point to another, and we try to avoid the busy, major highways. We ride instead on the back roads and, supported by a back-up vehicle, experience the best that Vietnam and Cambodia have to offer in a most interesting way! There are some days where there is no cycling involved. On the cycling days, we tend to ride anywhere from 2 to 6 hours, however the support vehicle and bus are always on hand if you decided that you would like to rest instead of cycle.

Please note that this itinerary may vary slightly, depending on the cycling capabilities of your group.
