LOVED this tour! :) - I don't bike very frequently, so I was not expecting to have as much fun on this tour as I did, but it ended up being one of my favorite days in Cambodia! I cannot recommend this tour enough! Silk Island by bike is a GREAT day trip if you need something to do while in Phnom Penh.
