Cambodia is often treated as a short must-see, stop-off on a whirlwind trip of Southeast Asia. In fact, it's a truly remarkable holiday destination in its own right. The vast majority of tourists come and view Angkor, which is, of course, wonderful, but explore a little further and you’ll discover a fascinating country full of hidden gems that many visitors miss. This suggested trip loops right around the Kingdom with plenty of time in each place to take in the many and varied wonders - both natural, historical and cultural. It covers 24 days but can, of course, be scaled back or extended to fit your timeframe.
From the famous Angkor Temples to the remote jungles of Mondulkiri, back down through the bustling capital Phnom Penh to the sleepy seaside towns of the South. This example itinerary offers an in-depth experience of a country rising out of its bloody history with resilience and sparkling energy.
Highlights include:
- Head into the wild and grassy forests of Mondulkiri to the fantastic Elephant Valley Project
- Visit crater lakes and take a boat to visit isolated traditional communities in the fascinating Ban Lung region
- Stay in a floating river lodge and immerse yourself in the glorious surrounding scenery of the rural Cardamom Mountains
- Discover the secrets of the incredible Angkor temples with your private expert guide
