Family Classic Cambodia

Day 1 – Depart the UK

Depart the UK on your overnight flight to Cambodia.

Day 2 – Siem Reap

Your guide will meet you at the airport when you land in Siem Reap. Transfer to your hotel where the rest of the day can be spent at leisure relaxing and recovering from the flight.

Day 3 – Siem Reap

Cycle leisurely through the Temples of Angkor this morning, discovering some magnificent temples and off-the-beaten-path structures left to the jungle over the years. This includes a visit to Ta Prohm, Ta Nei and Bayon, the impressive temple with rows of giant stone faces. Head back to your hotel for a short rest and lunch by the pool followed by an afternoon quad bike ride through the stunning Cambodian countryside immediately surrounding Siem Reap.

Day 4 – Siem Reap

This morning you will have a unique and exciting experience of zip-lining through the Angkor forest with Flight of the Gibbons. Prepare to soar on zip lines, traverse suspended sky bridges, abseil from towering trees and fly like never before! In the afternoon visit Banteay Srey, a temple dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva that is famous for the stunning pink hue of its red sandstones. Drive through the beautiful Cambodian countryside to see palm sugar being made before finishing up for the day with sunset at the mountain temple of Pre Rup.

Day 5 – Siem Reap

This morning you will have the option to visit the magnificent Angkor Wat for sunrise. The earlier you rise, the better - the complex can get quite busy so to arrive when the moon and the stars are still out is ideal, where you will have the temples to yourselves in the most magical of settings.

In the afternoon take a boat trip around Mey Chrey, a floating village on the Tonle Sap Lake that is almost untouched by tourism to this day. As you head back to shore, your ox and cart will be waiting for you to take you on a ride through local villages and farmland.

Day 6 – Phnom Penh

Take a short domestic flight to Phnom Penh, where you will check-in to your hotel and spend the rest of the day at leisure.

Day 7 – Phnom Penh

Enjoy a full day exploring the highlights of the historical Cambodian capital, Phnom Penh. Visit the glittering Royal Palace, the National Museum and have lunch at a local NGO. In the afternoon visit the colourful central market for a spot of souvenir shopping, followed by a cyclo tour around downtown Phnom Penh. You will whizz past Norodom Boulevard, the bustling train station, the old Post Office and Wat Phnom and more.  All you need to do is sit back, relax and watch a typical Phnom Penh afternoon unfold in front of you.

Day 8 – Cardamom Mountains

You will be collected from your hotel and transferred into the Cardamom Mountains. You will then board a small boat and head to the 4 Rivers Floating Resort, your base for the next three nights.
