Cambodia Stray 9 Day Phnom Penh to Siem Reap Tour

Depending on what time you arrive you should have time to start exploring. Phnom Penh is a diverse city with a walkable riverfront, lots of lush parks and great restaurants and historical landmarks such as the ornate Royal Palace and the Silver Pagoda. At the heart of the city is the huge Central Market which is always worth the time to explore! You will meet your Tour Leader and the rest of your group at 6pm in the hotel foyer and head out for an orientation walk and dinner.

Inclusions: City Orientation Tour. Accommodation: Hotel Sor

Today we’re leaving the busy city and taking a ferry to the idyllic island of Koh Rong, known for its sandy coves, coral reefs and great nightlife. The dense jungle terrain is dotted with coconut palms and waterfalls. In the south are Jewel orchids, a small zoo home to butterflies, snakes, and birds, and lively Police Beach, a party spot. High Point Rope Park has suspension bridges, rope walks and zip lines.

Inclusions: Ferry to Koh Rong. Meals: (B). Accommodation: Scarlet Sails Resort

Inclusions: Beach day. Meals: (B). Accommodation: Scarlet Sails Resort

Today we have another full day to spend on Koh Rong. Take a boat trip to Koh Rong Samloem to see more pristine beaches, spend the afternoon drinking refreshing beverages or eating incredible food at one of the many restaurants, go to the High Point adventure park for an adrenaline rush or head down to the Sok San waterfall if there’s been some rain in the previous days! At night, why not go swimming and see some bioluminescent plankton for a truly magical experience.

Today we’ll depart Koh Rong and make our way to experience Cambodia’s history brought to life with a tour of two of the most infamous attractions: the Khmer Rouge’s Killing Fields and the Tuol Sleng S21 Prison.

Today we’ll explore the energising capital city of Phnom Penh. With an edgy blend of harrowing history and modern development, Phnom Penh is an incredibly important place for a number of political, economic and cultural reasons. Explore the Royal Palace, Silver Pagoda and Wat Phnom, take a river cruise, shop for souvenirs at the huge Russian Market or see a living art performance at the National Museum.

Inclusions: Free Day. Meals: (B). Accommodation: Hotel Sor

No trip to Siem Reap is complete without a visit to the UNESCO World Heritage Angkor temples, a crucial part of the Cambodian national identity and one of the world’s most iconic landmarks. Ranked at the top of many ultimate travel bucket lists (including Lonely Planet’s), this awe-inspiring architectural wonder is the largest temple complex in the world. Embrace your inner Tomb Raider as you spend the whole day on a guided tour that will take you to highlight sites including the famous Angkor Wat and Ta Prohm.
