Amazing experience - Absolutely amazing experience. Being able to spend the timing riding and learning about the Silk Islands was a great way to appreciate and understand more about Cambodian culture, the environment and the beautiful people.

A fantastic trip with such a friendly guide - A fantastic trip with such a friendly guide, please do this trip and experience what these islands have to offer.. The cycle of approx 21km, at a very leisurely pace, ended with a lovely local meal - thank you to Sey (may have spelt his name wrong) but you were a fantastic guide..

Worthwhile tour to escape the city. - Narin was an excellent guide, knowledgeable and a good sense of humour. The bikes were excellent, with comfy seats. A good contrast of markets, countryside and a great lunch in a relaxing spot. Highly recommend.

A fantastic day exploring rural Cambodia! - I loved every minute of this trip. Sey was amazing. He greeted me at my hotel and booked a tuk tuk for us to the port. We got the ferry across the river to Silk Island where we collected our bikes. Sey spoke excellent English and he so was informative about the island and the locals. We stopped at many different places on the island. Highlights for me were seeing how silk and bean curd were made and seeing the flat Buddha. We visited locals houses and had traditional Cambodian food including a sticky rice wrap and mango cake for a mid morning snack and Cambodian curry for lunch followed by a relax on a hammock by the river! Such an enjoyable morning that I will treasure forever - thank you Sey!

Silk island by bile review - The bike trip was really great. We have done around 25 km, but it is really flat. We've been to a tofu skin and handmade silk production sites. The landscapes were really nice and our guide was great. I recommend it.

A wonderful and surprising bike ride across two beautiful islands, where the bustle of the city seems far away! - We had a very nice and educational bike ride on Koh Dach and Silk Island! Saimon and Pisey were great guides; very nice and they knew a lot about everything that grows on the islands and the different places we visited. It was surprising, interesting and very nice to see rural life on the islands so close to the city!

Cycling Tour of Islands - Our two local guides Sey & Simon were incredible! They showed us so many unusual and fascinating farming techniques. We had a wonderful experience weaving silk and tasting fresh fruits, followed by a delicious lunch. We covered 3 islands and were picked up and returned to our hotel. Great value trip - definitely worth doing!

A local experience not to be missed. - Fantastic experience cycling around the idyllic village roads of Silk Island and Mekong Island. Experience local snacks and have lunch on a floating restaurant. I was extremely fortunate to have a Silk Island resident - Pisey - as my tour guide. He's funny, engaging and very knowledgeable.

The delightful escape from the city - How did delightful experience with Nuth as our guide. It was nice to get out of the city and experience some nature and see how people live. It was so interesting to see in detail how the silk is produced. We also saw how tofu is produced in sheets in Cambodia. Lunch was a delight on the river. And Nuth was a delight.
