Description

Begin with a morning pickup from your hotel lobby and enjoy a scenic drive through rural Cambodia toward Phnom Kulen National Park. Known as the birthplace of the Khmer Empire in 802 AD, this sacred mountain site features 11th-century Hindu lingams carved directly into the bedrock under flowing river water, a massive Reclining Buddha carved from a natural boulder atop Preah Ang Thom, and a multi-tiered waterfall where you can cool off with a swim in the natural mountain pools.

Travel to the northern shores of Tonle Sap Lake to visit Kompong Khleang, one of the largest and most authentic water communities in Cambodia. Marvel at traditional homes built on towering 6- to 10-meter stilts designed to handle monsoon floodwaters, board a local boat to cruise through the village, and gain genuine insight into the daily lives and fishing traditions of the local community before returning to Siem Reap.

Private Anlong Veng Khmer Rouge Tour from Siem Reap

,
An interesting touring addition for those who have a little more time in Siem Reap and are keen to learn about the recent turbulent history of Cambodia. Anlong Veng lies 125km north of Siem Reap in the area of Dangrek Mountains which mark the border between Cambodia and Thailand. It appears on the touring map for two main reasons: it was the last stronghold of the Khmer Rouge and is the resting place of Pol Pot. Not much remains of Pol Pot's bunker but a shell of a house overgrown with foliage and “decorated” with profane graffiti. The province still has plenty of mine fields but these are away from the town centre and experts are working continuously on their clearance. Your guide will be able to shed more light on the last few decades and perhaps share the story of his/her family in those difficult times.

Private Banteay Chhmar Jungle Temple Tour from Siem Reap

This is a private one day trip for those need a highlight in Adventure Off the beaten track exploration, architecture, history, people and countryside. Fantastic Adventure from the crowd. This late 12th – early 13th century Buddhist temple is located in the northwest corner of Cambodia's Banteay Meanchay province and only 20km from the Thai border. It is one of the largest temple-city complexes built by a Khmer king. The temple is in a bad state of preservation as no restoration efforts were conducted here in the 20th century. The layout resembles Angkor Thom and other structures attributed to Jayavarman VII. The outer gallery is carved with bas-relief depicting military engagements and daily life scenes very similar to the well known ones in Bayon. Let a local host show you around and experience this cultural attraction from a local perspective.

Private Tour: Kbal Spean, Banteay Srei & Banteay Samre

,
Put on your walking shoes and discover the Cambodian jungle! Hidden from the beaten track lies Kbal Spean with the “River of Thousand Lingas” and an impressive waterfall. To get to the top of Kbal Spean and appreciate the intricately carved stone river bed you have to conquer a fairly steep incline, but fear not – the path is well worn and the biggest obstacles and boulders are overcome by series of well maintained wooden staircases, yet at least medium level of fitness is required for this 3km jungle walk. On your way back you will visit a small temple of Banteay Srei well known for its beautiful delicate carvings in warm pink sandstone. This late 10th century structure is fairly compact and very different from other Angkorian temples. To round off your day you may also visit Banteay Samre – a larger temple which is often overlooked by tourists and looks gorgeous in late afternoon light. Let a local host show you around and experience this cultural attraction from a local perspective.
