Discover Angkor’s Hidden Treasures with Siem Reap’s Best Bike Tour
Embark on an Unforgettable Off-Road Adventure
Expertly Guided, Customizable Mountain Bike Tours in Angkor’s Stunning Landscapes
Angkor Offtrack!
Hi , I’m Thierry from France. I’ve made Siem Reap my home since 2011. Alongside my trusty mountain bike, I’ve explored every corner of this incredible place.
My tours are carefully designed to offer an unparalleled experience.
The reason behind this is that even before considering welcoming guests, exploring this captivating location was a personal hobby.
Since I started exploring the site, I was fully aware of the downsides that could diminish the experience. To counter this, I dedicated myself to refining every detail to ensure the utmost enjoyment.
This included prioritizing aspects such as getting comfortable bike saddles, avoiding lengthy rides on paved roads by using convenient tuktuk transport, and even pioneering new pathways to seamlessly connect remarkable spots while bypassing disruptive paved roads.
Sharing this delightful expedition with those who are inquisitive and enthusiastic brings me immense joy.
Get set for a memorable ride, as I lead you through the breathtaking sights of Angkor. I’m looking forward to sharing this adventure with you!

Here’s What You
Can Expect
Your journey can be as unique as you want it to be. But if you’re undecided, let me take you on my favorite path. Just a quick preview – no spoilers:
We start our adventure on a sandy trail, making our way to a distinct, often overlooked temple that feels like it’s been lifted from a fairy tale. Moving on, we navigate a network of sandy paths only known to the local villagers. This way, you’ll get a real taste of the lively Khmer countryside, complete with picturesque landscapes and quaint hamlets. Before you know it, we’ll find ourselves at the edge of the Angkor Thom moat.

Highlight of our trip

Theirry took three Finnish backpackers on an unforgettable bike tour through the jungle at the Angkor area and we had a blast! The Tuk-tuk took us and the bikes to a good starting point from where we rode our bikes on jungle tracks that Theirry knew like his own pockets. The bikes were excellent and were very easy to ride on even if you do not have a lot of biking experience. The tracks are something you will not see every day and it was great to see Angkor through a different perspective. We would highly recommend this tour and if you are lucky you might get to see something very special at the end! Thanks a million Theirry!
