Tour activities in Cambodia:
Angkor Wat Sunrise Jeep TourWhat To ExpectThere are a lot of ways to welcome a new day, but what could be more memorable than witnessing the sunrise along with a breathtaking view of an ancient Cambodian complex? Tucked deep inside the tropical forest of the country, Angkor Wat is the former capital of the expansive Khmer Empire. As time goes by, the abandoned ancient city was slowly overgrown by nature. As you stand in one of its halls, you will be energized by the refreshing morning breeze and lifting fogs as it blows through the complex. Witness how the sunrise transforms the surroundings into a dramatic landscape. After that, you'll visit the richly-decorated temple of Bayon. Believed to be built in the late 12th or early 13th century as the state temple of the Mahayana Buddhist King Jayavarman VII, Bayon stands at the center of Angkor Thom. A day of exploring these tourist sites will surely make you hungry. So have your delicious and filling lunch while looking at the calming views of the countryside. Wrap up the tour by visiting a local village where you can learn more about the vibrant culture of the Cambodians.

Koh Ker and Beng Mealea Day TourGo on a fun adventure on this one-day tour of Siem Reap that takes you to some of the temples furthest from the city, Koh Ker and Beng Mealea. Choose between a join in or a private tour depending on your personal preference. On the day of the tour, start off with a pick up at your hotel, immediately followed by departure to the first stop of the tour, Beng Mealea Temple. Located a couple of hours northeast of Siem Reap, it is one of the most mysterious temples as it has been consumed by the jungle. However, some of the dense forest has been cut back, allowing visitors to explore it and see chiseled sandstone blocks, impressive wall carvings and maybe even a peek at the well-preserved library of the collapsed central tower. You'll then make your way to Koh Ker, a complex of temples abandoned to the forests of the north that was once the capital of the Angkorian empire from AD 928 to AD 944. Walk around and inspect the detailed stone carvings, doorposts and slender window columns of Prasat Krahom and climb the stairs of Prasat Thom for a spectacular view of the entire area. Reenergize yourself after half a day's worth of travel and exploration with a lunch at your own expense, where you can enjoy a variety of traditional Cambodian cuisine, right before you head back to your hotel.

Koh Rong Samloem Snorkeling and Diving Experience from SihanoukvilleWhat To ExpectThe beautiful beaches of Koh Rong Samloem will be your underwater playground in this half day excursion. You’ll be able to soak up the sun in the fine, white sand beaches of Koh Rong Island’s sister island. You’ll have the option to go for a morning or afternoon snorkeling trip through a long boat service with staff on board at all times. Marvel at the underwater world around you as marine life found at Samloem island coral reefs includes more than 600 hundred species. These include cuttlefish, angelfish, butterfly fish, parrot fish, puffer fish, seahorses, and much more in and around the reefs. If you’re up swimming deeper without a snorkel, you can try a SNUBA experience. This gives you the thrill of swimming deeper than you could through snorkeling, but without the burden of scuba gear or the need for a certification. It would be a thrilling opportunity to dive deep into the crystalline waters of the bay and see the vivid underwater ecosystem below with its wealth of coral reefs and vast diversity of marine life. What better way to spend half a day in paradise?
