Follow the sun & evade the crowds
Whether it’s Angkor Wat, floating villages, temples in Siem Reap or remote islands, Cambodia’s charm is endless.
Cambodia Trips & Tours
South East Asia has always been a beguiling place, and if cultural immersion, evocative, heady landscapes, and a good dose of light adventure sounds up your holiday alley, let us spill the beans on Cambodia… An overwhelmingly rural country outside the (surprisingly) forward-thinking capital, Phnom Penh, life plays out on verdant rice fields and on the banks of sparkling rivers. In the highlands, virgin forest hides endangered animals; at its feet are a smattering of untouched beaches and islands; and then, of course, there are the fabled temples of Angkor Wat, one of the most recognised sites in the world and a focal point of many a Cambodia itinerary. Historically, the country hasn’t had the easiest ride, from French colonial rule to the terrifying reign of the Khmer Rouge. But despite their hardships, the spirit and charm of Cambodia’s people is incomparable and all part of the draw to this warm and welcoming country. Our conclusion? Tourism is certainly in its infancy, but those who make the journey to Cambodia are infinitely rewarded; here, every road is an adventure and magic is never far away.
Angkor Wat can never fail to impress, but get beneath the tourist veneer and you’ll discover real treats in Cambodia: hidden beaches, Amazonian floating villages on jungle-clad rivers, elephant conservation, towns that pulsate with life, and traditional life playing out, just as it should.
Trekking in the Cardamom Mountains probably tops our Cambodia bucket list for its sheer wildness, jaw-dropping scenery, and range of exotic wildlife – and the chance to stay in some of the most wonderful accommodation the country has to offer.
If you’d like to explore the remotest parts, especially in the north and northeast, avoid the wet season (May to October). Travelling is almost impossible thanks to high rains and water-logged roads.
