check out our Beng Mealea tour from a clients perspective
An off-track motorbiking adventure to Beng Mealea, Cambodia
Unexpectedly, this scene takes place only about 40 kilometres away from the Siem Reap beehive, with its constant tuk-tuk traffic and honking horns. It took us only minutes to leave what is undoubtedly Cambodia’s most touristy city and gateway to the temple complex of Angkor Wat to find ourselves riding amongst rice paddies. Following our guide on dirt tracks that are not drawn on any maps, we observe typical Cambodian life: villages with bamboo houses on stilts, improvised tractors serving as public transport, kids in uniforms on oversized Dutch-style bicycles riding through deep potholes, water buffaloes grazing, fishermen throwing their nets in shallow streams, people coming back from the nearby market with their scooters heavily packed… Everyone seems to converge to the authentic market of Preah Dak, also referred to as noodle village by tourist guidebooks. Delicious fried rice balls stuffed with bananas or filling sweet potato puddings or exotic fruits are some of the treats displayed on woven bamboo mats, and good snacks before continuing to the lost temple.
