The best bike tour!! - Wow. Amazing tour through the countryside. Great bikes to ride, Ton is a very professional guide who speaks great English. This tour was almost 4 hours with 5 stops one to the market, the rice fields, the palm fields, basket weaving, and pagoda. Learned so much on this tour, even a little Khmer language! So great highly recommended

Off the Beaten Track with Ton and Sophea - Butterfly Tour offers visitors an opportunity to experience Cambodia in a different way. We cycled through local villages and talked with friendly villagers and monks. Our tour guides Ton and Sophea were perfect and explained everything very well in good English. The tour "off the beaten track" in Siem Reap is highly recommended for all visitors to the city. When choosing butterfly tours you also help students pay their university|school and is thus a great way to support the locals. NOTE: The company has good quality bikes what makes the trip very pleasant.

Off the beaten track with Mengchou - We had an amazing bike tour with Mengchou! She was so enthusiastic and got along with us so well while telling us lots about the Cambodian culture and history. She showed us little villages where ladies were making baskets and people were growing rice. Amazing experience if you want to see some real culture!

When in Siem Raep, leave the tricycles, taxis and crowds for one day and cycle off the beaten track! - Well organized, quick respons by mail and WhatsApp, free pickup and return to hotel. Bikes were in good condition and our guide Mengchou could tell us a lot about the surroundings, the different craftworks and many more. She also took care of driving safety and together with her colleague we had a great trip!

Fun, exciting, informative tour, all while working out. - This biking tour is a great idea if you like to do active and adventurous activities. It was very fun and informative. The group was able to bike through the dirt roads and see how people live along the countryside, all while getting to some of the temples. It was also very nice seeing the sunset from our vantage point. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, letting us take some rest breaks and providing us with water, mango, and watermelon. This trip is not for the faint of heart. The ride wasn’t too long (approx 10 km each way) but we were all definitely sweating. The terrain can be hilly and rough and took some getting used to riding ( I’m only used to biking in the city with a road bike). The company provided helmets and good fitting mountain/hybrid bike with large tires for the dirt. My only suggestion is to for all the bikes to have their own flashlights as it got pretty dark on the way back. Only the group leaders had some. Hopefully by the time you read this, they will have updated their bikes.
