The complete Cambodia experience in one journey: the royal capital, a pre-Angkorian homestay, Angkor and the remote Koh Ker temples, Battambang's countryside and the island of Koh Rong.
Grand Cambodia is a 12 day, 11 night private tour that begins and ends in Phnom Penh. It takes in the capital, two nights in a community homestay near Sambor Prei Kuk, Angkor Wat at sunrise, Beng Mealea and Koh Ker, a full Battambang day with the bamboo train and the bat caves, and two nights on Koh Rong. It is the itinerary for travellers who want the whole country in one trip.
Capital, rice plain, temple forest, the second city and an island - the five Cambodias, in an order that makes geographic sense.
Two nights with a family near Sambor Prei Kuk, with the temples of the first Khmer capital at dawn and dusk and village work in between.
Eleven nights is a lot of temples. Finishing on Koh Rong is the reason most guests arrive home rested rather than wrung out.
The UNESCO-listed brick temples of seventh-century Ishanapura, rice farming, palm sugar making and local crafts, with a village family as your hosts.
Sunrise at Angkor Wat, Ta Prohm and the Bayon, then a day north to the jungle temple of Beng Mealea and the Koh Ker pyramid.
The bamboo train, Wat Ek Phnom, rice paper and rice wine makers, bats pouring from Phnom Sampov at dusk - then two nights on the island.
