Our next unitour will be in one of my favourite countries, Cambodia! I unicycled from Vietnam to Cambodia as part of a charity cycle tour in 2004, which is where I first met Jason Williams, just before he went on to start Grasshopper Adventures. Since then, we have organised tours through Laos, Vietnam, India, Mongolia, China, Uzbekistan and Nepal. After a 4yr break from unicyclists, Jason is back to lead our next tour!
The tour will start in the UNESCO World Heritage area of Siem Reap/Angkor, where you get to unicycle amongst thousand year old remnants of the Khmer empire. We ride through the Cambodian countryside, visiting more recent parts of Cambodia history, including the sobering site of Choeung Ek (The Killing Fields). From there we unicycle to the coastal retreat of Kep/Rabbit Island, and finish off the tour in Kirirom National Park.
I went riding in Cambodia last year (on bike) and can tell you it is fantastic. The people are lovely and the is a really interesting country to travel in.
Unfortunately the timing for the tour is not good to me so can not go.
Yeah, for sure. It’s the country that started my passion for unitouring. People are so friendly and we had kids lining the streets waving at us as we rode through each village.
Just a reminder that our early bird registration for the Cambodia Unitour ends on 1 June. We’re trying to finalise our support vehicles/crew and hotel bookings.
Let me know if you are interested even if you can’t meet the early registration date.
