Great biking and learning and having fun! - Our guide Sey was excellent! I learned so much! We had a lovely breeze the entire day, so it wasn't too hot, and there was a great mix of cycling and stopping and learning and seeing things I hadn't seen before and/or didn't know about. This tour was worth it, and one of the better tours I've been on

Mr Nuth is an excellent cycle guide! - My mother (fit at 74 years) and I enjoyed a great day cycling, ferrying over to explore silk island with a sit-down tasting different Cambodia fruits at the silk factory, and later a great lunch on a floating restaurant. Mr Nuth was our super attentive and mindful guide. Being picked up and returned to our hotel, we truly enjoyed the day! Thank you very much Mr Nuth, kind regards, Jacobs family from Amsterdam NL

Lovely tour visiting interesting places on very good bikes. - The tour was wonderful with lots of cycling on good bikes. The guide was very good. The ladies hand making the silk was very interesting and the floating restaurant for our lunch stop was lovely and cool as it was very hot,

. - Very nice excursion, top guide, very nice. Takes place a little off the beaten track which is nice. No particular difficulties. More than correct lunchtime dining

The only way to experience the islands - Amazing way to spend your first morning escaping the busy city. I was concerned before booking due to the heat and traffic but the tour escapes the madness. Sey met us at our hotel and had a tuk tuk take us to the ferry. Other companies left you to find your own way to the meet points across the ferries. Good new bikes and water provided. Sey was an amazing tour guide taking time to stop and explain anything and everything that caught our eye. 27km bike ride in total with lots of stops at interesting areas to ensure you do not notice the distance. 2 hours cycle across a 4/5 hours Water provided, mix of off road and tarmac but away from the traffic. Good amount of shade to keep a ginger fella safe. Great fruit break (Kong ;-)) at the silk tour. Lovely lunch stop by the river to learn more from Sey on the local ingredients and his home life on silk island. Best tour guide ever, give him a raise :-) Thanks Sey - Dave & Assunta

Great experience - Great tour. I was alone on the tour, so it was indeed private. Was great to discover these islands just next to the city. The nature is still very present and local live seems preserved. My guide showed me plenty of little things from plants to traditional architecture. I had a great time. I highly recommend.

Cycling around three islands - Omg. This tour was so good. It was just the two of us and our guide. The bikes were great - well maintained and easy to use. Sey was our guide and he was very good. Very informative. We stopped several times, to examine the fruit and veg on the side of the road, at a couple of monasteries , the nunnery, to look at the reclining Buddha and to watch bean curd getting made - amazing. We also stopped to try some of the fresh cooked bananas from a road side stop all on Mekong island. Then we crossed a bridge to silk island. Where we cycled around the countryside. Then onto another ferry to the mainland island where we cycled to a home where we first had cold bottled water and some local fresh fruits. Then we spoke with, watched and did some silk weaving (well I did the winding of the silk onto the bobbin). Then off to a restaurant for lunch. All in all a fabulous tour.

Fantastic time cycling through villages and along farmlands, seeing the real Cambodia - I had a fantastic time on this cycle tour around Silk Island with our guide Nerith. He was lovely! Very friendly, interesting, and informative. The stops on route were great, with many photo opportunities and a really great restaurant for lunch - a deck over the river with hammocks to chill in and delicious local food and ice cold beers and waters! Thank you Nerith and Vana Adventure Tours.
