Great bike ride with fascinating visits to local crafts

5.00I really enjoyed this bike ride through villages outside of Battambang. What made the ride so special was the visits to families carrying out traditional crafts. They received a payment for our visit so there was no awkwardness or pressure, and I really enjoyed the insight into their lives, crafts and experiences and found it all fascinating. The snacks of tropical fruit and dried banana were very refreshing. Paul and Lisa were great leaders and we felt very safe as they held traffic up for us cross safely!

5.00My wife and I went on the local livelihood half-day bike tour in Battambang. I cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed the experience. Our tour guide, Visal, was top-notch. If you’re at all nervous about navigating the roads on two wheels, Soksabike’s bicycles are in great condition and they take excellent care of their guests. Every stop along the route was very educational and culturally enlightening. This has been the highlight of our time in Cambodia. If you’re considering a bicycle tour with Soksabike, sign up now! You’re in for a treat :)
Great experience!

5.00We had a fantastic experience on this tour and can only warmly recommend it to everyone. Our guide visual was just great. His English is excellent, which has made communication absolutely smooth and enjoyable. He guided us through the different stations in a very savvy way, sharing profound knowledge. The highlight for us was the authenticity: You get a real, unadorned insight into how the locals work and live. It never felt touristy, but very honest. Especially nice is the knowledge that this tour directly supports the local community. Conclusion: If you are looking for an informative, heartfelt and sustainable tour, this is the place for you. Thanks to Visal for this unforgettable day!

5.00We spent half a day with Visal who guided us perfectly in the wonderful countryside around Battamgbang. We were warmly welcomed by several families and we were able to discover their craftsmanship. Visiting the fish market was a must An activity not to be missed in Battambang

5.00Our guide, with a lot of expertise, not only gave us a good insight into the way of life of the individual families we visited, but also gave us an interesting insight into the mentality and handling of Cambodia's terrible history. We really liked the tour.
Be sure to do it! It is highly recommended! Details in the evaluation.

5.00Fantastic guided tour of Battambang by Paul and Sophaek. The bicycles are in very good condition, the water provided in reusable plastic bottles (to avoid waste ) is filtered. The tour is highly recommended and leads to families who earn a living with different products. Not a bit of a sales event, but intense insights into the lives of the people here. Great!
First class opportunity to get to know local life

5.00This was an excellent way to spend a morning in Battambang. We set off early on good bikes with our lovely leader and companion, Lisa, who was an enthusiastic but careful guide. The route was very well chosen - quiet roads (no hills!) but full of diverse local activity. Stopping to meet the admirable practitioners of six different traditional crafts was a privilege. Such hard lives, and equally some very difficult back stories. Lisa rounded off the trip with an impactful focus on the horrors of the Khmer Rouge years, completing a comprehensive range of insight into the lives of the local people and their livelihoods. Thank you, Lisa, for a really interesting, informative morning. We were so pleased to support your admirable social enterprise with its super environmental credentials.
Excellent, authentic, immersive experience led by great guide Pich

5.00We made a last minute decision the night before to book this tour and we are so glad we did. The bikes allowed us to cover a larger area than walking would, but still allowed us to feel part of the surrounds. Pich was an excellent guide, helping us to connect with the various locals by teaching us simple Cambodian greetings, and giving very clear explanations regarding the activities at the various stops (rice paper, dried bananas, rice wine, sticky rice, fish paste etc), and very interesting background on the families we met. The killing fields memorial was sobering, but again Pich's commentary was helpful. The bikes were comfortable, and the samples provided sufficient. Don't miss the fish paste factory. Very interesting, (but makes you very thankful you do not have to work in those conditions). To see how hard everyone works to make a small profit is truly humbling. It is great to know that some of the tour fee goes to the producers and that their families have bee assisted with education by soksabike. Thoroughly recommended.
