Charity Cycle: 7th – 17th November 2026
This breathtaking charity bike ride is one of the best in the world and will take us from Vietnam’s Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) to the ancient temples of Angkor Wat in Cambodia.
Before you start cycling you’ll have time to explore the fascinating city of Ho Chi Minh City – the heart of Vietnam. Our 391km route will take us through many traditional Vietnamese villages, following gorgeous streams and rivers, passing paddy fields overlooked by stunning mountains. Few locals will have seen foreigners cycling past and their interest and hospitality will spur on even the most tired cyclist. After a fascinating river journey and rest day on the Mekong and Bassac Rivers, we cross the border into Cambodia and push on to the world famous temple site of Angkor Wat – arguably one of most fascinating wonders of the world! Built from 879 – 1191AD by the Khmer civilisation, Angkor Wat represents one of mankind’s most astonishing architectural achievements and is certainly the jewel in Cambodia’s crown.
