Our Adventures
Ripple Effect Rides offers a diverse range of social impact travel experiences.
From our
Social Impact Day Tours, where
10% of ticket sales are donated to local charities, to our monthly
Monthly Community Rides, where all funds raised directly supports local community projects, we provide opportunities for everyone to make a difference.
For those seeking a more immersive experience, we offer
Custom Tours designed for groups of all types. Travel with our team by tuk-tuk or bicycle, allowing you to explore the city and its surrounding areas while supporting local initiatives.
We also specialise in creating bespoke
Charity Challenges fundraising events, partnering with organisations to design unique cycling challenges that raise vital funds for their important work.
We are a small and passionate team, on a mission to leverage tourism for good while sharing our deep love for Cambodia and its people.
Why Cambodia?
For us, it's more than just a location; it's a deep connection to a nation with a profound history and an incredibly resilient spirit. Our passionate small team is focused solely on Cambodia, driven by a desire to contribute to its ongoing journey of recovery and growth. We recognise that Cambodia's past, while marked by hardship, has forged a remarkable strength in its people. It's because of these experiences – the triumphs and the trials – that we've chosen to do things differently.
We are a company owned by two passionate expats with a combined 14 years of first-hand experience in the non-profit sector, allowing us to bring a unique understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing Cambodian communities.
We invest in our team, actively raise funds for ethical causes that directly address the needs of the Cambodian people, and have strict safeguarding in place to ensure the well-being of everyone we work with. After one year of curating multi-day social impact tours and charity events, we are excited to expand our reach and open day tours, offering even more opportunities to connect with the heart of Cambodia and its people.
We're starting small, but enough ripples will make waves, and that's exactly what we aim to do – to contribute to a brighter future for Cambodia, one meaningful experience at a time
Travel is a privilege,
let's make it count.

Launching later this year, our monthly donation-based Community Rides will offer a fantastic opportunity to support our partner causes while enjoying a leisurely 20-25km ride. Held on the first Saturday of each month, these rides are open to expats, locals, and tourists alike.
For a $5 participation fee, you'll receive snacks, water, and a drink bottle, and we ask that each participant donates a minimum of $20 USD to the charity of the month. Each ride will be uniquely tailored to highlight the partner cause, featuring an ambassador who will share insights and information throughout the journey, making for both an enjoyable and educational experience.
