The meaningful journey returns to the Kingdom of Wonder

The Cambo Challenge is a charity-driven tuktuk event taking place in Cambodia. International travelers from different walks of life cruise around over 1,350 km's of challenging terrain on ingenious tuktuks. A unique way to see a beautiful country whilst meeting amazing people and helping the local communities.

Thailand 20th February 2011 - After officially captivating the world through the inaugural edition of the Cambo challenge, LARGE minority has recently announced the launch of its 2011 edition.

From 6th to 17th November 2011, intrepid travelers from around the world will once again traverse over 1,450 km's of challenging terrain on traditional auto-remorque motos. The 11 day Challenge will give teams of two or three a close up and personal experience of some of the most fascinating historical sites and natural delights of the enigmatic Kingdom of Wonder, whilst raising funds for social and environmental projects.

Juan Paredes, Co-Founder and Organizer of LARGE Minority, who along with Julian Carnall conceived and organized the event says, Following our 2010 success, it is only natural to carry on our legacy and continue our meaningful adventure. We hope to once again captivate the world through our responsible tourism initiatives.

Carnall adds, We are very excited to bring back the Cambo Challenge to this beautiful nation and its kind people. We are confident that this fresh, one of a kind, socially responsible and eco-minded event will continue to be a sound success and bring positive change to the local communities.

The event, which is endorsed and supported by the Ministry of Tourism of Cambodia, is set to once again surpass all expectations. The organizers anticipate a total of 20 teams / 45 international participants for their 2011 edition.

Responsible Tourism

The LARGE Minority team will continue to support its flagship project: the Water Supply Pipeline System, established in 2010. The project which is organized in partnership with the local NGO Mlup Baitong will provide fresh drinking water for 3 villages & over 1,000 people from the Chambok community, located in the Kampong Speu province.

A total of 10 per cent of each teams entry fee and the organizations sponsorship agreements will be donated to finance the project. In addition to this, LARGE minority encourages each team to raise at least USD 1,000 as well. Carnall adds, The additional funds raised by teams can be used for their preferred charities in or out of Cambodia, or can be added to our total. It is very rewarding to witness how a collaborative effort can make a change.
