We got to watch the sunrise over a Ankor Wat temple before heading off to a local village for breakfast and pick up our bikes. We rode to 2 temples on bush tracks past lots of local villagers homes. The paths are sandy and a bit slippery so if you’re not confident it will be a bit of a challenge. It’s all mostly flat and the trees give you shade. Lots of break stops for water and fruit. Our guide Sambo was wonderful and very passionate about the temples we visited. The local lunch on the way home was very good quality.

The guide from Grasshopper tours, esp Bun Bath, was awesome! Super knowledgeable and knew the best spots to take pictures. Also taking a bicycle tour allowed us to see so much in so little time. This was an amazing tour, and I felt like it was also an amazing value. There was SO MUCH FOOD provided for you. Breakfast isn't until around 0700, but after that there's snack time around 1000 and then lunch time around 1200. The food was all so authentic and local and good. At Angkor Wat, you are likely to only go here once in your life, get a great guide like this tour comes with and make the most of it.

Fantastic tour - very professionally run in all aspects. I was picked up from the hotel and driven to Angkor Wat where our guide for the day, Bunvath, secured for us an excellent position to see the sunrise over the temple. Throughout the tour he knew all the best places to be at the right time and takes a great photo too! I didn’t need to take selfies at all. We had good quality bikes, well maintained and the cycling between sites was straightforward and easy going. Breakfast and lunch were excellent, plenty of cold water was provided throughout the day and the whole day went very smoothly. Bunvath is a very informative guide and cares for his guests attentively which makes for an enjoyable experience.

This 8-hour adventure was the highlight of our Cambodia trip and a memory for life. We were greeted by our guide Sopat and our driver at our hotel at 4:30 am and went straight to Angkor Wat to claim a good spot to sit and wait for the sunrise. Sopat had stopped by a bakery and picked up some freshly baked pain chocolate for us to munch on while we waited - a lovely surprise. We then got an early start to see the main temple and learn all about the history from Sopat, who was a wealth of knowledge. After that, time for a tasty breakfast in a local village, a nice spread with freshly fried eggs, fresh fruits and everything else one could ask for. We then hopped on our bikes and set off on a mix of roads, paved bike paths and sandy dirt paths through the jungle. We made lots of stops at various palsves and other sights, each narrated by our very knowledgeable guide. We even got to bike on the ”great wall of Angkor”. Our driver met up regularly duting the tour and topped up our water bottles, provided cold towels so we could freshen. After an action-packed day we finished off with a delicious lunch and cold beer at another local restaurant. We were dropped off at our hotel happy, tired and full of both food and new impressions. We strongly recommend this tour and Sopat if you want to truly experience Angkor Wat.

One of our favorite activities of our 3 week trip to SE Asia! Our guide was wonderful. Bikes were in great condition. We loved the adventure of riding through the jungle on a flat, easy single-track between sites. The food and people were amazing. if you like a day of both walking (around the sites) and biking, do it!

What a tour! Rambo Sambo was the BEST, most informed host and all round lovely guy. He knew all the best spots for pics too. The tour itself was great, very informative, and a lot to see, also so great bring in bikes and getting the ‘alternative’ tour that others don’t see. It was hot(!) but we were kept well hydrated and fed. Great quality of bike as well, new and well maintained. Highly recommend!

Excellent trip, that lasted about 11 hours in total. Our guide Mr Sambu (sorry if I spelled it incorrectly) was wonderful, so cheerful, and knowledgeable, and he know all the best spots for a photo. The temples are very interesting and the history of Cambodia rich and diverse. The bikes are new and well kept, but a definite level of fitness is needed. The breakfast, snacks and lunch delicious. A Great day.

We booked the 4.30am sunrise mountain bike tour with Grasshopper Adventures. Our guide was very knowledgeable, articulate and funny. He knew the right spot to wait for the sunrise and how to miss certain peak times @ temples to ensure the best viewing & photo opportunities. A brilliant way to see the temples on a bike winding through the forest (ahh the shade it gives). We are both casual bike riders (not mountain bikes) so we found the 23km easy & enjoyable, with stops for breakfast, lunch (delicious - take recommendations from guide) and fruit snack along with stops @ all temples.

Seeing Angkor Wat, Angkor Thom and many of the other temples is an exhilarating experience. But is such an experience when you have a tour guide as knowledgeable and passionate as Bunvath. I couldn’t have asked for more. It was a great mix of cycling around the temples and some of the more remote areas as well as an incredible history lesson. Bunvath is worth his weight in gold. The food I enjoyed on the tour was outstanding. This would be one of the best tours I have ever been on. I highly recommend coming to Siem Reap and if you do Grasshopper Adventures are brilliant. See if Bunvath is available because he is one of a kind.

My husband and I very much enjoyed this tour. Chen, our guide, did a great job guiding us around and we always knew what to expect. The sunrise portion of this was very crowded with tourists and it was cloudy so we did not see much of the sunrise over the temple but what we did see was very pretty. For those of you who may be wondering if you can do this tour, my answer is yes, you can. I am 66 and my husband is 67 and we did not have difficulty on this tour. We did run into some sand and some mud, but it all ended well. Chen did a great job warning us when we were coming up on something to avoid. If you can ride a bike, you can do this tour. Breakfast was good, lunch was good, and the bike ride portion was fun.

Brilliant! A fabulous day! Knowledgeable guide, new bikes (and well maintained), healthy breakfast, snacks and lunch at a local cafe. Riding through the jungles we saw the Siem Reap villages and the temples almost intimately, not as a tourist. The ride is not short but no problem for any reasonably fit adult. No hesitation in recommending or even doing the tour again!

We had an amazing tour with Muen! Pickup at the hotel was timely, a small bite offered on the way to Angkor Wat, Muen then found us the best spots to enjoy and take amazing pictures of the temple in the sunrise. He then guided us through the temple, before starting the bike ride after a very nice breakfast, riding through the jungle at a pace accommodating all levels, while going through memorable temples. We appreciated Muen’s knowledge and his great help with the pictures. Lunch was really nice too!

Our guide Sam Bo worked tirelessly to give us a superb experience. He found the right place to avoid the crowds and get a great sunrise view. He was hugely knowledgable about everything we saw and a friendly companion. The breakfast lunch and snacks were first rate and the bikes were well maintained. The forest paths were occasionally tricky - which made it all the more fun. I thoroughly recommend this experience.

This was the rare tour that delivered more than it promised! Our guide Sam Bo was superb - I can’t believe we covered so much ground and experienced so much in a single tour. When we arrived at Angkor Wat before dawn he checked whether we wanted to be inside the temple grounds with the crowds or outside with more of a view to ourselves - the latter - and found us the perfect spot to watch the sun rise and get great photographs. We then covered 16 miles cycling through forests, along the wooded walls of the Angkor Thom temple complex, past rice fields and through tiny villages, but with lovely meals and very welcome fruit snacks included. Bo knew a good deal of history and told it very well, from the big picture about the building of iconic Hindu and Buddhist temples, to the tiny and funny details from historic carvings. He also took care to show us great spots to take photos and to avoid the crowds as the day developed. I would say you need decent stamina and fitness to do this tour, but you will get more than your money’s worth and an astonishing collection of photographic memories to take away.

I highly recommend this trip, especially for solo travelers! Mr. Chen took really good care of us, we were only a small group of 3 people, and I enjoyed the cycling tour so much! It was the end of October and it was the rainy season in Siem Reap so there was no sunrise, BUT, watching the lightning against Angkor Wat was majestic. The weather was just right, it rained for a bit but no rain can stop us :) I've learned so much about the history of Siem Reap and even the current situation of the locals, thanks to our knowledgeable guide, Mr. Chen. Also, it was so lovely to get to share stories and experiences from different cultures with everyone in the group. We were all well-fed, with so much nutritious food from snacks, breakfast, to lunch. I didn't even finish my lunch because I was still full from eating fruits and the local snack at one of our stops (Bayon Temple).

Highly recommend this trip! We had a fantastic day with Pat. Picked up at our hotel and were able to stop on the way to Angkor Wat to purchase tickets. The temples are gorgeous and fascinating, and Pat's knowledge made it even more special as we learned the meaning behind many reliefs, structures, and the history of Angkor Wat. Pat told us stories of the epics depicted and made the experience so meaningful--no way we could have appreciated the temples on our own. Biking was incredibly fun through the jungle and roads of the old city. Meals and snacks were tasty and relaxed. This is a perfect tour for a mix of physical activity and history/cultural tourism. 100% recommend it to those who aren't interested in sitting in a tuk-tuk all day and getting off the beaten path to see these amazing temples!

This is a fantastic tour with the very knowledgeable guide Mr Chen. The sunrise was superb as was the breakfast that followed. The bike ride mostly through jungle to other sites was hard (and hot) but we thoroughly enjoyed it. We needed to take rest and water stops with Chen taking care of all our needs. Lunch was great. We have done this tour 6 years ago with grasshopper and this time was even better. We were very tired but happy at the end

Great experience. Our guide Chen was excellent, he provided us with lots of fascinating stories about temples as well as historic background. Bike tour was fun with a lot of nice views away from the touristic hot spots. Definitely would recommend this tour.

Was a wonderful day with Mr Chen, the cat whisperer a fantastic guide. We had a lovely time seeing Angkor Wat and surrounds via comfortable bikes and seeing parts of the countryside that normal travelers don’t see. Highly recommended. Lunch was fab too

I cannot say enough positive things about this tour. Sunrise at Angkor Wat was really cool, but seeing the other off-the-beaten path temples and mountain biking through the woods and countryside was even cooler. Some of the mountain biking was actually fairly technical and it was a great workout (we’re active people but beginner mountain bikers). Our guide, Muen, was one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had, and shared tons of cool info about the temples, the surrounding area, and Cambodian history and culture. He was so great about taking tons of photos of us at the temples—we have more photos of the two of us from that day than the rest of our trip combined! Add in a cooked-to-order hot breakfast, feast-like restaurant lunch, and brand-new really nice mountain bikes and helmets, and it was the perfect day.
