Experience the adventure of a lifetime by cycling 600km
through exhilarating landscapes and diverse cultures from
Ho Chi Minh in Vietnam to Siem Reap in Cambodia.
Lying in the heart of IndoChina, these two countries are
home to beautiful rural landscapes dotted with ruins of
ancient civilisations and small towns where Buddhist temples
nestle amongst graceful French colonial buildings.
Vietnam and Cambodia are incredibly diverse countries,
steeped in culture.We will experience breathtaking scenery,
timeless traditions, ancient temples and the warmth and
hospitality of local people.

Have you been to cambodia yet?
Anyway most of the mines has been cleared.
Cambodia even sent humanitarian de-mining troops to Africa as UN peacekeepers, and where the hell you get that agent orange sh!t from eh? icon_neutral.gif

BTW, I think riding bike in the countryside maybe fun. beerchug.gif

Certain areas of southern Vietnam is still horribly contaminated. Like literally billions of times above safe levels of Agent Orange. neartears.gif

Not sure I'd take this bike ride, but there is a northern to southern Vietnam ride I was seriously thinking off. But I doubt I have the time for that either--it quite an investment in terms of time. But Angkor Wat is definitely a must see for me. biggthumpup.gif

I like biking mind you, but when travelling, I prefer backpacking with planes, trains, and automobiles. icon_rolleyes.gif
