CAMBODIA ADVENTURE – 8 DAYS / 7 NIGHTS
Cambodia is a rugged, raw and emphatically beautiful country that yearns to be explored. It is a country that openly presents an abundance of unforgettable experiences for every visitor. Whether traversing the country from north to south on a family adventure, cruising around the southern islands or exploring its ancient temples, the options are plentiful.
Our Cambodian adventure starts in the eclectic capital of Phnom Penh, a city steeped in history and today, graced with many stunning temples and modern day achievements. After a night exploring the city’s highlights, we depart for Battambang in West Cambodia, an area characterized by rolling hills, verdant green landscapes, rice paddies, palm trees and charming remote villages.
Life in the West is simple and creative trades such as pottery and silk farming are still very much alive. Our final days are spent exploring the majestic temples of Angkor. A site teeming with history and strewn with unfathomable structures that have stood for over 1000 years.
