Cambodia has returned to the traveller's map after decades of the ravages of civil war and the excesses of the Pol Pot regime and makes and ideal location for a charity event or fundraising challenge location.
This exciting country is ready to be rediscovered. |
"Cambodians have weathered years of bloodshed, poverty and political instability. Somehow they have come through the experience with smiles still intact. Nobody comes away from Cambodia without a measure of admiration and affection for the inhabitants of this beautiful yet troubled country" Nick Ray, Lonely Planet

Cambodia Charity Bike Ride
Our Cambodian fundraising bike ride ventures off the beaten track into magnificent countryside, allowing you to experience the vibrant colour of Phnom Penh, the faded colonial grandeur of the coastal resorts and the peerless splendour of the Khmer temples at Angkor. Your charity ride will end at Angkor Wat - a place that words simply cannot describe. |

Angkor Wat The Angkor period existed rom 9th to 13th century beginning with King Jayavarman II taking the throne in 802. At its peak, the Angkor Empire extended from the border of modern day Burma east to the South China Sea and north to Laos. The most famous of the great kings who built famous temples was King Suryavarman II who built the world renowned Angkor Wat, whereas King Jayavarman VII successfully and aggressively constructed most of the largest temples of Angkor, particularly the Great City known as Angkor Thom. |
