Cycling Indochina & Angkor: Cycle Holiday in Asia

Cycle across the countries of Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand, visiting sites in Asia such as Bankok, Indochina and Angkor. This is a cycling holiday to remember!

This journey takes us through three countries with divergent histories and subtly different cultures. From the bustling streets of Bangkok, to the serene tranquillity of the shimmering paddy fields, to the magnificence of Angkor’s temples, we see a little piece of everything these amazing countries have to offer. In Vietnam we enter the Mekong Delta, a spectacular patchwork of rice paddies and waterways. Our journey ends in Saigon where the frenetic pace and vibrant street life contrasts starkly with the rural areas we have cycled through, and will leave a lasting impression.
