★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 495 reviews · from $35Our pick

Review of Phnom Penh’s Silk Island bike tour, with ferry rides, village roads, silk weaving, local food stops, pricing, and practical tips.

“We were picked up on time where Sok at Siemreaper gave us a walkthrough and prepared us for the morning. Guiding us safely to the ferry where we explored markets and the silk tour was really interesting. We were kept hydrated and the ride was really easy being quit flat all the way. It was most excellent being able to enjoy the back streets with ample stops and a great pace.”

Silk Island Cycling Adventure & lunch with locals

2.Silk Island Cycling Adventure & lunch with locals

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 246 reviews · from $45

Cycle Silk Island from Phnom Penh through villages, farms, temples, silk workshops, and a floating lunch stop for $45.

“Knowledgeable guide and enjoyable tour, though it was more about local farming than silk production than I expected. Good bikes but one thing to note: As a petite adult, I need a small helmet and the only one they had that was small enough to fit me had a broken adjustable inner band so it kept slipping off my head. Good thing I never needed it because it wouldn’t have done anything to protect my noggin. Please ensure appropriate safety equipment is available for a wider range of riders and in good working order. Total distance on bike was 15 miles, about half on paved roads, the rest on gravel…”

Explore Silk Island from Phnom Penh by tuk-tuk, visiting villages, temples, tofu makers, markets, and a family-run silk house.

“Mr. Sok did a great job of explaining and sharing at each stop. My friend used a cane to walk and he made sure she was able to participate. We stopped at a tofu business which was quite eye opening. But the best was listening to the woman who explained how, for 7 generations, they have made silk. Just Amazing!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 68 reviews · 6 hours · from $75

Review of the six-hour Oudongk Mountain and Koh Chen Island tour from Phnom Penh, with silversmiths, Buddhist nuns, views, markets, and practical tips.

“An amazing tour! Takes you to some amazing places a tourist would want to see, but also get to see real life in Cambodia. Each stop has about half a dozen fantastic sights and places of interest. The island was an opportunity to see how villagers live in Cambodia, the Buddhist centre was architecturally amazing and seeing how the nuns and monks live was enthralling. I’d never have imagined I would see such things up close. The guide was very insightful and explained everything in-depth. Oudong Mountain was also breathtaking, but the food market we went to afterwards was almost better in that it was such a unique thing to…”
