Mon was patient, friendly and knowledgable as a guide. The cycling tour was fabulous. We experienced local culture, history, visited temples and local businesses and had a sumptuous lunch at a floating restaurant by the river. Highly recommended for those who like some adventure!

Very good tour. The bike riding tour was different but still fun. I dont think I ever rode a bike for 5 hour but it was good exercise. The heat may be a battle depending of the time of year you go. But overall I recommend this tour if you want a challenge and you have stamina
such an incredible...
