See Buddha by bike

Bike and hike your way from Kulen Mountain, home to the giant reclining Buddha, down to the charming Beng Mealea temple in the jungle. Drop in on waterfalls, monasteries, bat caves and visit an Angkorian elephant statue along the way. Stay in traditional village homestays overnight for a truly authentic experience.

What's going on?

Hike or bike your way through the crumbling temples of Angkor Wat, standing as a silent testimony to the grandeur of the once mighty Khmer Empire. A celebrated UNESCO World Heritage site it was once the world’s biggest city, spanning over 280 football pitches in size and built over 900 years ago, sunset here will stay with you forever.

Find riches of the rainforest

Covering 6% of Cambodia, the Cardamom Mountains are home to rich wildlife habitats that nurture globally endangered species like Asian elephants and Malayan Sun Bears. You’d be lucky to catch a glimpse of them but you will encounter giant trees, oodles of rice paddy fields and home cooked food from rural stilted villages.

Challenge accepted

Education remains vital to the government’s drive to pull Cambodia from a low-income to a middle-income country by 2030. Get involved with grass root initiatives, led by local communities to improve access to a quality education and practical vocational training for the next generation.

"We visited the Temples of Angkor in Cambodia and watched the sun rise over the temples which was amazing! On our project, we danced and played in the rain with the school children like we were 6 again! Definitely something I’ll never forget!"
