Magnifique tour à vélo dans les environs de Battambang avec Pola, un guide très sympathique, intéressant et très impliqué dans son activité . Plusieurs arrêts dans des familles que l'Association soutient et découvertes de leurs différentes activités (galettes de riz, séchage de bananes, fabrication d'alcool, etc.). Accueil très chaleureux dans une maison traditionnelle lors de l'un de nos arrêt. Je ne peux que recommander cet excellent tour.

Really great local company involved in sustainable Tourism. You get to spend half day cycling around the area to meet local families and see How They live their everyday life. The tour guides are amazing, we were with Pola and Sophara Who are really nice and fun and willing to share a lot of their culture. One of the highlights of our Cambodian stay.

Rolling around Battambang back streets, discovering water jar and fish net craftsmanship and chatting frankly with a devoted Monk were some of the highlights of our lay back journey.
We live in Phnom Penh so it was such a delight to enjoy Brilliant Battambong. Best bit was sipping sticky Khmere coffee from a local Barista in a Cham village and hearing our tour leaders insights into local life. Great for any age!!
