DAY 1 DEPART THE UK

Depart the UK on your overnight flight to Cambodia

DAY 2-4 Farmhouse Smiling Gecko

Arrive in the capital city Phnom Penh and transfer to the nearby countryside. Here you'll stay at the wonderful Farmhouse Smiling Gecko - a fantastic place to ease into the holiday. Gecko is a sustainable boutique resort with an organic farm within the grounds. It offers a relaxing place to stay and an experience where you can learn, cook, eat and explore whilst supporting the local community.

Days 5-7 Cardamom Mountains

Together with your guide, you'll begin the road journey into the Cardamom Mountains. Board a small boat and head to Canvas & Orchids - a floating lodge where you'll stay for the next three nights. When you're ready to explore, there are a range of activities and experiences such as a boat trip to nearby waterfalls, a trek through the forest, a visit to local villages and various nature trails.

Day 8-11 Koh Rong Sanloem

Now for some time by the beach on an island just off Sihanoukville, travel here from the Cardamom Mountains and board a boat for the 45-minute crossing to Koh Rong Sanloem.

Enjoy spending a few lazy days on a beautiful beach, swimming, snorkelling and enjoying great food.

Day 12 & 13 Kep & Kampot

Cross back to the mainland and to the sleepy seaside town of Kep, the resort of choice during the French colonial era. During your stay, there is time to explore Kep itself, the surrounding countryside, and neighbouring Kampot.

Kampot is famous for its pepper (some say it's the best in the world), and Kep is renowned for its crab. A meal at the famous crab market is a must in Kep, or take a food tour with a chef in Kampot. Explore Bokor Mountain and its surrounding caves or take it easy and stroll around the faded colonial buildings and the colourful boat yards.

Day 14 & 15 Phnom Penh

Loop back to Phnom Penh and spend the last couple of days of your holiday at a wonderful homestay on the outskirts of the city. The stay is hosted by a well-known chef and the story of how she has researched old recipes is a fascinating one and is about much more than just food.

During your stay there is chance to partake in a cooking experience or to take a cycle tour of Koh Dach Island, where you'll see a different side of the city. A short boat ride across the Mekong will bring you to traditional weaving villages and lanes where monks wearing saffron robes collect morning alms.
