Day trips from Pnom Penh
OPTION 1: PHNOM PENH CITY TOUR
(-/L/-) 
The private quarters of the Royal Palace are now home to
the royal family and are therefore very close to the
public. At the northern area of the palace grounds is
Silver Pagoda, the most sacred shrine in the country. We
visit both structures as well as the legendary temple of
Wat Phnom before continuing to the National Museum,
dedicated exclusively to Khmer art and sculpture. The
majority of the exhibits are from the Angkor period (9th
to 15th Century), but some date from as early as the 4th
Century. The Tuol Sleng Prison Museum and the notorious
‘Killing Fields’ of Choeung Ek are not to be missed. A
visit to these sights provides us a deep insight into
the painful bloody rule of the Khmer Rouge.

OPTION 2: PHNOM CHISOR & TONLE BATI EXCURSION (-/L/-)
An interesting drive through the rich farming land to
Takeo with the first stop being Phnom Chisor Temple
Mountain, which dates from the 11th Century. There are
500 steps leading up to the top of the hill from where
we can enjoy fabulous views over the surrounding
countryside. We continuously travel south to the quiet
town of Takeo before we board a boat for a short cruise
to the pre-Angkorian style temple of Phnom Da and a
nearby temple of Asram Maharosei. The steep path over
some big rocks makes Asram Maharosei different from
other temples in Cambodia. On the way back, we have a
chance to visit the Tonle Bati with Ta Prohm and Yeay
Peau Temple. The trip ends after arrival in Phnom Penh.

OPTION 3: KONGPONG CHAM EXCURSION (-/L/-)
An early morning start to drive towards Kompong Cham.
This town has plenty of interesting sights, some of
which are old colonial buildings and Wat Nokhor with its
ancient temple and mordern style pagoda. After seeing
these sights, we have time strolling around the town to
discover different way of lifes. Heading out of the
town, we drive across the new bridge to Chhup, Cambodia
's biggest growing rubber area. The deep contrast of
lush vegetation and red surface of basaltic soil is
incredible. The trip ends after arrival in Phnom Penh.

Day trips from Siem Reap
OPTION 4: TONLE SAP LAKE CRUISE TOUR (-/L/-)
The Shallow Tonle Sap is the largest of Southeast Asia's
lakes. Numerous streams feed it and it drains by Tonle
Sap River west to the Mekong River. During the wet
monsoon season of june to November, the high waters of
the Mekong River reverse the flow of the Tonle Sap River
and increase the size of the lake from about 2, 600 to
10,400 sq km. This morning we take a short drive to the
boat landing before we set off on a full day excursion
exploring Tonle Sap Lake. We pass by the Chong Keas on
our way to the bustling floating village of Prek Toal.
There is an exciting cruise around this village as we
see the local lifestyle close up. We continue venturing
into the flooded forest which is home to many species of
rare waterbirds The trip ends after arrival in Siem
Reap.

OPTION 5: ANGKOR TEMPLE EXCURSION (-/L/-)
The sightseeing tour begins with a visit to the South
Gate of Angkor Thom, famous for its series of colossal
human faces carved in stone, the impressive Bayon
Temple, the Royal Enclosure, Phimeanakas, the Elephant
Terrace, the Terrace of the Leper King, the largest and
most complete structure of Angkor Wat. The temple of Ta
Prohm, with enormous fig trees and gigantic creepers
embracing themselves in the stone foundations of the
structure giving the impression of man's creation being
reclaimed by the powerful forces of nature is an
incredible sight. We explore this masterpiece as well as
its surrounding temples of Banteay Kdei, Sra Srong, Ta
Keo,… before we walk up to Phnom Bakheng Hill for a view
of the spectacular sunset over these sandstone
monuments.
