Cambodia Cycling is a privately-held adventure tour operator founded in 1999 and headquartered in Siem Reap, Cambodia, with regional representative offices in Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh City), Thailand (Bangkok), Laos (Pakse), and Myanmar (Mandalay). The company designs and operates guided cycling tours, trekking tours, dirt bike tours, and classic sightseeing tours across more than 10 countries in Southeast and South Asia, including Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Myanmar, Malaysia, Singapore, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, and Yunnan (China). Approximately 70-80% of cycling routes use off-road and back roads through countryside, villages, and rural communities as a core differentiation strategy. The company also operates complementary products including GAP Year volunteer programs, bird watching tours, golf tours, camping tours, school challenges, and corporate team building/MICE events with capacity for 1,000+ participants.

The business model is direct-to-consumer, with all bookings initiated through the company website (cambodiacycling.com) via contact forms and email inquiries, followed by customized quotations. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; tours are quote-based with a minimum group size of 2 people. The company employs a core team of approximately 5 office staff plus 20+ tour guides, drivers, and mechanics across operating countries, many of whom are members of the Cambodia Cycling Federation. Marketing is conducted through social media (Facebook, Twitter), YouTube video content, press coverage, and charity event marketing, augmented by TripAdvisor Hall of Fame referral traffic.

Revenue streams include adventure tour operations, bicycle and equipment rental, GAP Year and volunteer programs, corporate team building events, and charity event organization. The company has built a 24+ year operating history with recognized brand credentials including TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence Hall of Fame (2018) and International Star for Leadership in Quality (Paris, 2014). Since 2014, the company has donated 2% of all booking profits to Angkor Hospital for Children and co-organizes annual charity cycling events, with the largest 2019 event attracting over 1,000 participants and raising USD30,000. The company operates as a private limited company (Cambodia Cycling Co. LTD.) with no disclosed external investment, no funding rounds, and no reported revenue figures.
