Cycle Thailand to Cambodia, Touring Bangkok to Siem Reap
Why take a flight or a bus from Bangkok to Siem Reap and miss the beautiful views and friendly people along the way? Instead, try biking and explore a special part of Southeast Asia. Ride along the Thai coast, through fruit orchards, gem mining towns, and charming Cambodian cities known for their French architecture and ancient temples.
You’ll meet locals, enjoy comfortable places to stay, and taste delicious food while traveling on lesser-known paths in Southeast Asia.
What’s the riding like?
This tour includes 250 km (155 miles) of mostly flat riding, with a few gentle hills. We ride at an easy pace, making it suitable for those wanting a relaxing experience or those new to cycling.
You’ll encounter different surfaces, including dirt roads and asphalt. In Cambodia, some trails might be a bit bumpy. As you cross the hills between Thailand and Cambodia, you’ll enjoy a gentle downhill ride after going uphill, making it manageable for most cyclists.
If you need a break, our support vehicles are ready to help.
For an extra boost, you can upgrade to pedal-assist E-bikes for $160.

What our clients say about us
Cynthia K
12 March 2025 ★★★★★My husband and I, along with five friends, thoroughly enjoyed our Heritage Line The Jahan Mekong River Cruise from Siem Reap to Saigon. The food was out of this world. I have celiac disease and Heritage Line knows how to take extra care with food preparation to keep people safe. Our outstanding travel agent set everything up for us, answered all of our questions and checked on us frequently. I highly recommend Heritage Line The Jahan and I highly recommend booking this unforgettable journey through a trusted travel advisor.

8 January 2025 ★★★★★The entire crew was personable. Special shout outs to the Aqua Mekong cruise director and housekeeping manager. Rooms were clean. Food options were always delicious plus there was no way to ever be hungry! One of our group had dietary restrictions and there were always choices that worked. Evening entertainment was great and every night was something different. We did the Mekong River cruise so the daily excursions included time in local villages, markets, and cultural sites. We all had fun and appreciated the small ship experience.

17 April 2025 ★★★★★We went on a 7 day Mekong River cruise on the La Marguerite ship. Our twin room on the lower level was very nice, and the bed was extremely comfortable. Housekeeping twice a day with turndown service was fantastic. Dining was spectacular with buffet and menu choices, and the special dinner was magnificent. Each day the menus reflected local Mekong flavors. Service was extraordinarily good. Every evening a complimentary happy hour was offered, and the staff were always attentive. My traveling companion was gluten free and had many wonderful options at each meal. Excursions were very good, with gentle or more active tour choices and excellent local guides. This was one of the best cruise experiences I’ve ever had!

22 May 2025 ★★★★★The Jayavarman cruise was simply outstanding. Our tour director was on point at every turn, with clear instructions and follow-through every step of the way. The food was delicious, the wine and drinks were abundant, and the living quarters were attractive and clean. The day excursions were divided into more difficult, regular, and easy so everyone got to select their pace. This was our first true river cruise and we enjoyed every single moment of it.

12 February 2026 ★★★★★Lovely cruise down the Mekong on Pandaw. Crew were very friendly, food was great, loved all the drinks and atmosphere on board. Loads of guided tours available and we visited some lovely places along the river. Very smooth journey with only slight changes due to river conditions, all handled perfectly by the crew whilst we were whisked off on an excursion. Great evening entertainment and our boat had a wonderful traditional charm throughout. Would definitely recommend.
