and last about 45 minutes (US$5 per

Cycling
You can hire a bike and go it alone - Koh Dach is a doable DIY trip, or venture across the
Mekong River on a local ferry (1000r including bike) behind Imperial Garden Hotel and
pick up bucolic back roads on the other side. Or opt for something more organised with or
without a guide through one of the companies below. Vicious Cycle and Offroad Cambod-
ia both run daily group tours to Udong or Koh Dach, departing before 8am.
