My mother (fit at 74 years) and I enjoyed a great day cycling, ferrying over to explore silk island with a sit-down tasting different Cambodia fruits at the silk factory, and later a great lunch on a floating restaurant. Mr Nuth was our super attentive and mindful guide. Being picked up and returned to our hotel, we truly enjoyed the day! Thank you very much Mr Nuth, kind regards, Jacobs family from Amsterdam NL

Amazing way to spend your first morning escaping the busy city. I was concerned before booking due to the heat and traffic but the tour escapes the madness. Sey met us at our hotel and had a tuk tuk take us to the ferry. Other companies left you to find your own way to the meet points across the ferries. Good new bikes and water provided. Sey was an amazing tour guide taking time to stop and explain anything and everything that caught our eye. 27km bike ride in total with lots of stops at interesting areas to ensure you do not notice the distance. 2 hours cycle across a 4/5 hours Water provided, mix of off road and tarmac but away from the traffic. Good amount of shade to keep a ginger fella safe. Great fruit break (Kong ;-)) at the silk tour. Lovely lunch stop by the river to learn more from Sey on the local ingredients and his home life on silk island. Best tour guide ever, give him a raise :-) Thanks Sey - Dave & Assunta

What a great tour , we had Mr Thong as our tour guide, best tour we have done so far and unforgettable experience. Mr Thong is extremely noligeable and passionate about Cambodia and its people and his English is very good. The tour started at 7:30 am and finished at 1:30 pm. We toured 3 island, met with many local villagers who were all so lovely, it is amazing how lovely and accepting the locals are , inviting complete strangers in to there homes and with the biggest smiles made us felt very welcome. We learnt about harvesting rice, making silk, making of grass mats as well as local farmers and how the sell there produce at the markets. The restaurant we stopped at for lunch was delicious 10 out of 10

Started the day at the Killing Fields. What an eerie place that is full of the remnants of such an atrocity. Afterwards it was the tuk tuk tour which was brilliant fun. It culminated with a traditional floating lunch at a local village. Really good day and many thanks go out to our fantastic guide Nute. Great fun to be with

Omg. This tour was so good. It was just the two of us and our guide. The bikes were great - well maintained and easy to use. Sey was our guide and he was very good. Very informative. We stopped several times, to examine the fruit and veg on the side of the road, at a couple of monasteries , the nunnery, to look at the reclining Buddha and to watch bean curd getting made - amazing. We also stopped to try some of the fresh cooked bananas from a road side stop all on Mekong island. Then we crossed a bridge to silk island. Where we cycled around the countryside. Then onto another ferry to the mainland island where we cycled to a home where we first had cold bottled water and some local fresh fruits. Then we spoke with, watched and did some silk weaving (well I did the winding of the silk onto the bobbin). Then off to a restaurant for lunch. All in all a fabulous tour.

Hong our guide and Yap our driver took great care of us. Hong has a great amount of enthusiasm for his country and its culture which only added to the experience. Highly recommend this tour of Silk Island and what it is all about. Also Hong is an avid for photographer which made the tour more interesting if you happen to be a fellow shutterbug.

I had a fantastic time on this cycle tour around Silk Island with our guide Nerith. He was lovely! Very friendly, interesting, and informative. The stops on route were great, with many photo opportunities and a really great restaurant for lunch - a deck over the river with hammocks to chill in and delicious local food and ice cold beers and waters! Thank you Nerith and Vana Adventure Tours.

It doesn't matter if you are in Phnom Penh Cambodia for a long or short time as we were, you must consider doing this tour. We had Narith as our guide, and he was fantastic. He assisted us getting used to our bikes, and ensured our safety as we were riding around Silk Island. All of our questions were answered by Narith.He is a wonderful ambassador promoting his country.We learnt so much during this tour that covered various aspects of Cambodian life. We found the pace of the tour relaxing(we aren't highly experienced bike riders).We rode along rural roads, and beside the Mekong river too at times. Stops along the way were well timed, and gave us a break... while learning about local industries such as cotton/silk weaving, soya bean production, and much more. The bikes were in excellent condition, with comfy riding seats too. Adjustments were made to suit our heights. Lunch was delicious, and included in the tour price. A must do tour if travelling to Phnom Penh Cambodia. Highly recommended.

What an amazing experience this was. Thong is a fabulous guide, sharing his knowledge of the area and local people. Cycling was all easy and at a good pace for all in party. The water stops / breaks were well timed. The fruit at the silk weaving family home was so tasty and to watch the weavers was great. Lunch was delicious. All in all a fabulous way to see the islands around Phnom Penh.

A great time was had by us. Very good and informative tour guide. Loved the tuk tuk ride around the village. Enjoyed the ferry rides, grasshopper farm, mat making, and the silk weavers factory. Very cool checking out the silk worms! Yummy lunch and chill out on the floating Hut. It was a very enjoyable tour. Thank you!

Catching and using a Tuk-tuk is a lovely way to see the island and explore around the Silk Centre. If travelling from Phnom Penh you will need to catch a ferry across to the island. The ferry runs frequently and the tuk-tuk driver drives you onto the barge/boat (ferry) while you're transported across the river.

It’s a nice and interesting place to cycle around. The lunch was nice, too. A few adjustments could make this a much better activity. The guide was very quiet and reserved. An energetic, outgoing guide makes a big difference, so he can work on that, and maybe prepare things to talk about beyond “that’s a mango tree.” The bike was very uncomfortable, with a hard seat, hard handlebar grips, and a setup that didn’t allow you to sit up, so after a while it strains your back. It seemed like a good quality, newish bike, but maybe they should switch to a more comfortable style of bike. We arrived at the restaurant - the last stop on the itinerary - just after 10:30am. When we’d finished eating at 11, he suggested lying in a hammock for 10 minutes. That was nice! But after 10 minutes I waited a further 30 minutes before we left. Was this just killing time because the itinerary is too empty? I would suggest finding a similar tour with another company, because Silk Island and Mekong Island are nice.

Thong (our guide) met us early directly at the hotel, he was extremely friendly and spoke good English. We started the 2.30pm arvo tour feeling exceptionally comfortable and safe. We hopped in our tuk tuk with driver Tran (also lovely) and headed to Silk Island across multiple ferries. Thong was an exceptional guide and took the time to explain about the farmers, their farming methods and their produce, of course silk weaving, & how bean curd is made (foreigners should never again complain about their work office conditions!), the curd is made 24x7 and rotated by family members on watch. Thong was extremely helpful and patient with our many cultural questions and observant of our needs (WC, water etc), and even made a quick stop when we showed interest in home made donuts on the side of the street (ps, delicious by the way). We cannot recommend Thong highly enough of Vana Adventure Travel (his own company), he truly is inspirational of his knowledge and care for the Cambodian people! This was the best trip we had during our 2wk stay across Vietnam and Cambodia. Thank you Thong.

Amazing tour hosted by Thong and his colleagues. The entire team is so genuine, funny and committed to give you the best day! Beautiful tour around Silk Island with very nice stops along the way were you learn more about the production of silk, taste local food and the area. Thong and his team are very accomodating and make sure the group connects with one another. Strongly recommend this tour and team!

Super cool morning biking, taking the ferry and seeing so many nice places. This is definitely worthy to make the effort to cycle and wake up early!! Our guide was amazing and knew every turn to take! Thank you so much! Enjoyed it a lot!
