Manich gave me a wonderful tour of the Royal palace. She is an encyclopedia of knowledge and a wonderful tour guide. I would highly recommend hiring her for seeing Phnom Penh!

What a great afternoon, the girls run such a lovely tour they were both so friendly and knowledgeable, well worth going to Silk Island and seeing how people live and work.

The girl was very friendly, picked me up from my hotel, drove me to all the planed attractions using her motorcycle, which was quite funny, we toured the famous attractions inside the city in the morning and moved to the countryside/islands in the afternoon. Had a wonderful experience with Motogirl tour. You won't go wrong with these girls especially when you are first time visiting, highly recommended! Thanks again!

We had a fantastic evening tour with Manich and Shrekao (apologies if spelt wrong). We visited a site of worship and placed flowers and incense, had our fortunes told and sampled several different types of Cambodian food including a baked egg which was super tasty. We also went to a bar and coffee shop and looked at the street art. Manich is very knowledgeable and speaks amazing English so she told us loads about the Cambodian culture. This company is run by women and it’s great to feel safe on the bikes zooming around the city.

I had a great time on the tour. It gave an opportunity to go explore outside the city and see interesting sites. You will have a friendly guide to make the experience even better. Highly recommend!

Be prepared for a fun time with lots of surprises! You won't be disappointed. This tour took us to Dach Island to experience the life of silk makers and the process of silk making. Before taking the boat to the island we had the amazing opportunity to participate in a water blessing at a local temple. We were given blessings by the local monk in the temple and bowed before the Buddha statue, before we headed out to receive our water blessing. Be warned, you will get thoroughly drenched! As you sit in front of the steps outside the monk will recite some verses then literally commence tossing buckets of water onto you to rid you of your karma! A serious ceremony but the experience is extraordinarily fun. You won't be disappointed. Aftewards we rode to the dock where we caught the boat to Dach Island. In fact there are 3 islands, each one we visited separately. The boat ride is a lovely complement to the motorbike ride, peaceful and serene. The islands are diverse in nature. The first of these we went to a local family village with restaurant. It was quite unusual with hammocks and mats adorning the place. There's an opportunity also for those who wish to, to participate in a swim. Along the way we ran into an unexpected engagement party which had positioned itself across the street. As we couldn't navigate around the party we did what any unexpected traveller would have done, and joined the party! This was a gem of a moment and we indulged ourselves in their local beers and food and took photos with the guests. They were as much surprised as we were. We eventually arrived at our destination to witness the entire silk making process at a local village/family, from the gathering of silk to its extraction and weaving into lush beautiful garments. The whole process really is quite intricate and the resultant garments are a sight to behold. The tour is conducted mostly by motorbike but is such an experienced rider participants will feel safe and secure with her in control. Personally, I feel also that touring by motorbike is one of the best to experience a new country, as you can easily navigate to places not easily reached by vehicle. Her knowledge of the islands is also remarkable and you complete the tour fully gratified in all that you have learnt and experienced. A great tour overall and one every traveller should include in their itinerary.

The tour was absolutely amazing and was a great way to experience Cambodian culture. I was able to see amazing sights that I wouldn’t be able to see on my own or by renting a motorbike.

Had a fun experience touring around Cambodia on a motor bike with an English speaking guide. Checked out the golden temple, went on the ferry, stoped for some sugar cane juice, visit silk island, tried some local snacks and had a meal at a local restaurant. It was a fun experience. Try it out yourself.

🛸❤️ Motogirl❤️🛸 My friend Manich runs what may be the Kingdom's only all woman-owned and -operated 🛵 scooter tour company. I met her in 2018 when I wanted to drive my scooter to Silk Island but realized I had no idea what I was doing. I hired her company and had a fantastic day and began a now 6 year friendship. Motogirltour Cambodia has pre-designed trips or you can invent one of your own. I have gone to silk Island to see silk being made from mulberry bush to loom, visited a traditional bamboo house on the island, gone to the zoo outside of town, to restaurants in town and shopping. It's great for solo traveling women like me who want to feel safe with a local guide and fixer who speaks both English and Khmer, including going out at night. 💪🏼❤️🛵 I have no stake in this, just wanted to let people know about a business I found really really helpful.

I had the pleasure of joining a half-day tour of Phnom Penh organised by MotoGirlTour during Khmer New Year in 2024. We were first taken to a water blessing ceremony at Siam Mongkol Temple, and then enjoyed drinks and food at a couple of scenic spots in Koh Dach before ending with a tour of Silk Island. Manich is a marvellous guide, and she has fantastic knowledge of Phnom Penh beyond the classic tourist spots. She also has great experience navigating the capital’s busy roads, and I felt very safe following her on my own moto. I'd really recommend MotoGirlTour to any and all tourists visiting Phnom Penh, and also those like myself who've been in Cambodia for some time but want to get to know the country that bit better.
