There are hundreds of thousands of guides and tour operators around the world. Figuring out who to trust is stressful and hard.
That’s why we started 10Adventures Tours, we’re here to make it easy to find a great guide or tour operator. We handpick the best local guides and tour operators for 10Adventures, working to ensure you have great guides and a great trip.
We know it sucks to show up in a different country and find out the tents are junk, the guide incompetent or the route different from what we thought we were getting.
We want to give our users peace of mind that you’ll have a great trip and offer a guarantee that we will work with you to make it right.
How does this work?
Well, if you feel that something about your trip didn’t’ meet your expectations, let us know. We will then work to gather the details and figure out where things went wrong. If something indeed wasn’t as described, or went wrong with your trip, and the problem was within the control of either oursleves, the guide or the tour company, we will then work out a refund with you that’s proportional to the scale of the problem.
Obviously the best way to make a great trip is to tell your local guide or tour operator and give them the chance to fix the solution while you are on your trip. Most things can be solved by telling your guide when the issue develops. If that doesn’t solve it, then email us right away. Please don’t wait to voice your concerns until the trip is over, as it’s much harder to solve issues after the fact.
We work hard to make sure you have a great trip. If something isn’t right, please email hello@10adventures.co and we will get to work right away.

Explore incredible Cambodia by hiking, biking, and boating for 12 days
Take the first step towards a private travel experience, customized just for you.
About this tour:
The epic 12-day Hike and Bike Cambodia Tour leads you from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap, exploring UNESCO World Heritage Sites and a national park, offering authentic experiences with locals along the way. Spend a few days hiking in the jungle and enjoy a biking excursion, then embark on boat journeys on tranquil, stunning waters.
Each day of the Hike and Bike Cambodia Tour is filled with activities, from walking tours of the iconic cities of Phnom Penh and Siem Reap to travelling to remote lands and hiking into the jungle with expert local guides. A trip through Cambodia is sure to fill your spiritual cup, and you’ll note the influences of the ancient Khmer rule and French colonialism. This blend of cultures is evident in the architecture and cuisine, which you’ll fully immerse yourself in. For a genuine exploration of Cambodia, the Cambodia Multispot and Cultural Tour is a top choice.
Welcome to Cambodia! Find your way to the hotel to check in. If you arrive with spare time before dinner, have a short stroll of the neighbourhood to get your first sense of Cambodia.
In the evening, meet your guide and group in the lobby and head out to a local restaurant for dinner and a briefing on the trip ahead.
Once you’ve finished breakfast, you will depart via ferry to Koh Dach Island for a cycling excursion. Ride along the dirt paths of the island, noting thatch-roofed houses on the shore and small pagodas all around. It’s a peaceful respite from the chaotic Phnom Penh. Have lunch at a traditional stilt house, then hop back on a boat to return to the city.
Back in Phnom Penh, get ready for an afternoon of sightseeing on foot. Highlights include the National Museum with ancient Khmer artifacts and the Royal Palace that used to be the home of the King of Cambodia. Stroll through the sensational Phnom Penh Central Market to browse for souvenirs, and when you’ve shopped till you dropped, return to the hotel for the night.
After breakfast, load into your private transportation for a journey northwest towards the off-the-beaten-path area of Kratie on the mighty Mekong River. Kratie town, on Koh Trong Island, is only accessible by ferry.
Once you reach the river, you’ll cross over to find your homestay in this unique spot without cars. Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and sandy beaches and stroll the natural paradise around with lush vegetation and river views. After you’ve explored, settle into a homestay for the night.
Gather with your group for a chill breakfast in the lovely Kratie before departing on a ferry to the mainland. Meet your driver and begin the journey to Banlung in northeastern Cambodia. On the way, your driver will stop at Kampi to embark on a quick boat ride searching for rare freshwater dolphins. Hopefully, luck is on your side today and you catch a glimpse of this majestic creature!
After dolphin-spotting, continue to Banlung. A hill sits in the heart of Banlung, a perfect perch for watching the sunset. Return to your hotel before it gets dark and get some rest.
Set out right after breakfast and head for the hills to hike to remote villages and meet the communities inhabiting these far-flung locations. A local ferry brings you across a small river, and then a trail leads up into the hills through agricultural plantations. For an extra thrilling addition to today’s path, meet a local village chief who will transport you a part of the way on his motorized tractor. Halfway through the hike, you’ll come upon a remote village to stop for a traditionally prepared lunch made with native ingredients.
Return the way you came and meet your driver to head back to the hotel in Banlung for the night.
Rise early to witness the buzzing activity of the Banlung Market, where locals sell their baskets of produce and other items. It’s a bit chaotic but well worth the visit!
Begin the next stretch of the journey in the late morning, heading northwest to the less touristic area of Preah Vihear. This town is home to several stunning temples immersed in nature, which you can explore after checking into the hotel in the late afternoon.
Enjoy breakfast with your group before heading out to explore some of the temples in Preah Vihear. The day’s highlight is the UNESCO World Heritage-recognized Preah Vihear Mountain Temple, dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva. Perched on a hill, you’ll see sweeping views of the green Cambodian landscapes below you.
Bid farewell to Preah Vihear and set out for Siem Reap, where you’ll stay for the remainder of the tour—plenty of sights await!
Fuel up on breakfast for a long day of sightseeing ahead- Angkor Wat awaits! Built in the 12th century, Angkor Wat remains the world’s largest religious complex. Walk through the grounds and stare in amazement at the grandiose temples, engulfed by nature and possessing an undeniably mystical atmosphere. Stand before the iconic Royal Palace, Elephant Terrace, and Bayon Temple before returning to the hotel. You have time for a siesta before heading out in the evening for a delicious gastronomic tour of Siem Reap’s street food.
Indulge in Khmer delicacies of meat and veggies prepared in all kinds of ways, and end your evening by the river with a traditional dessert.
Depart early for Phnom Kulen National Park for a delightful jaunt through this lush sanctuary. A local ranger will guide you for the day through the deep jungle and the rocky plateaus, and you’ll even encounter some hidden temples. Have a picnic lunch along a beautiful river and dive in for a swim if you feel up for it. Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife in the afternoon, as over 40 species roam the area!
If you were craving another swim, you’re in luck—stop at Phnom Kulen Falls before travelling back to Siem Reap for the night.
Note: Two distance options are available for today’s hike. The route chosen will depend on your group.
You can relax your legs today, as you’ll spend most of the day on a boat exploring the enormous Tonle Sap Lake. After breakfast, get a transfer to nearby Chong Kneas to embark on a boat that will navigate through the wonderful world of floating villages. The whole village is on the water, from marketplaces to schools and everything in between! A local team will prepare an authentic meal for lunch in one of the floating houses. With a full belly, it’s then time to journey back to Siem Reap for the evening.
Note: no operation from mid-April to end of June due to low water level
Today is a free day to explore Siem Reap, either to places you haven’t seen or places you’d like to see one more time. If you wish, you can partake in one of the following options.
Option 1: Traditional cooking class at an organic farm
In a private transfer, head out for a nearby organic farm to meet the chef. The chef will bring you to the market to pick out ingredients for the day’s lesson. Ride to the farm in a tuk tuk and set up at your cooking station, then the chef will show how to prepare a traditional Khmer dish that, of course, you will get to eat! The tour includes a private transfer, an English-speaking guide, a group cooking class, and lunch.
Option 2: Workshop with NGO Eco Soap Bank
You can opt for this offering by NGO Eco Soap Bank for a fun, eco-friendly workshop. Learn about the soap recycling process and how to create your own bar of soap, instructed by local women. By participating in this workshop, you will be supporting the Angkor Children’s Hospital, as the NGO donates soap for their use. This option includes a private transfer, an English-speaking guide, and participation in the workshop.
Enjoy your last night in Siem Reap, filling up on your favourite street food.
It’s time to say goodbye! After one final breakfast with your group, pack up, and prepare to leave. You’ll find your own transportation to the airport or wherever the next part of your journey takes you.
Trek to a remote village deep in the jungle to have a traditional meal with its residents.
Visit two UNESCO World Heritage sites, Angkor Wat and Preah Vihear Mountain Temple.
Discover the magic of the floating markets all over Tonle Sap Lake over a local lunch.
