Phnom Penh - Siem Reap Cruise - 3 days / 2 nights

Route: Phnom Penh - Kampong Chhnang - Tonle Sap - Siem Reap

This river and adjoining lake are home to some of the most important sites in all of the country, and  Exotissimo have specifically designed this tour to let you enjoy the serenity of this calm river, whilst sleeping in luxurious comfort on board the boat. Over a period of three days you will be introduced to some of the most unforgettable parts of the region, making this one of our favourite Cambodian experiences.

First up, you will get to see the capital of Cambodia between the years 1618 and 1866, Oudong. Much of the town suffered from American bombing raids during the 60s but a set of 509 steps survive, leading up the famed hill to a temple and fantastic views across the surrounding area.

After seeing or even buying some of the wonderful silverware that the region produces, the cruise continues to Kompong Chhnang. This community takes its name from the earthenware pots it makes and provides a beautiful site of stilted houses set amid flood plains that fill up during the wet season, providing the town with an abundance of fish, for which it is now famous.

Here, the river joins with the lake of the same name and you will get to see the intriguing villages scattered about its canal system. This tour will include the largest of them all, Kompong Luong, before your final night on board the boat and disembarkation from what we are sure will be an unforgettable trip.
