We will pass many local villages and schools and people going about their day-to-day business and get a really good feel for life in Cambodia. On the way we have a chance to visit Banteay Samre, often missed but well worth a visit. This is one of the best rides on the tour. We stop at Banteay Srei for a well-earned rest before continuing on to Kbal Spean (River of 1,000 Lingas) and lunch at local restaurant.

DAY 4: SIEM REAP – ROLOUS – KOMPUNG PLUK (BREAKFAST/LUNCH/-) CYCLING DISTANCE – 46 KM
Today we leave the crowds behind and head towards the small village of Roulous, home to some of the oldest temples of the Angkor Complex. This beautiful 15km ride leads through rural Cambodia and offers plenty of opportunities to once more interact to the local people. Upon reaching at Roulous we explore the three main temples – Lolei, Preah Ko and Bakong. After discovering the fabulous temple ruins we continue our bicycle ride to the floating village of Kompong Phhluk. The submerged forest makes this tranquil place unique and is a treat for visitors. We enjoy a boat tour around the village, between the trees breaking through the water surface and soak in the culture of living life on the water. Return for lunch at a local restaurant before cycle or drive back to Siem Reap.
