Overview

Our tour will take you to three fascinating destinations. First, we'll visit Phnom Kulen (Kulen Mountain), an isolated mountain range within the larger Dangrek Mountain Range. This range stretches approximately 40km and is located about 50km from Siem Reap. The highest peak reaches 487m, with the average elevation across the range exceeding 400m. Here, you'll have the opportunity to receive a traditional monk blessing.

In the afternoon, we'll journey to Banteay Srei temple, situated approximately 37km from Siem Reap. Along the way, we'll stop at a local community, where you can experience the daily life of the villagers firsthand. Depending on the season, you may also have the chance to sample palm wine, palm sugar, and other local products.

Finally, we'll explore Kampong Phluk, a unique floating village on Tonle Sap Lake, the largest lake in Southeast Asia. Afterward, we will transfer you back to your hotel.
