Journey along the Mekong to Angkor 9-Day Tour

Phnom Penh → Siem Reap 9 days Up to 12

About this trip

Nine days in Cambodia built around the temples of Angkor and the rhythm of life along the Mekong and Tonlé Sap. You get the big-name sights, Angkor Wat, Ta Prohm, Bayon, alongside quieter corners like Banteay Srei and the Koh Ker ruins that fewer visitors reach.

Beyond the temples, the trip spends real time in rural Cambodia, visiting villages where silk weaving and palm sugar production still happen much as they always have. A boat trip on Tonlé Sap Lake adds another layer, taking you past floating villages and everyday life on the water.

Guides travel with you throughout, offering context on Khmer history and culture, and there's room to eat well along the way, from local markets to family meals.

  • Explore Angkor Wat, Ta Prohm and Bayon
  • Visit the lesser-seen Banteay Srei temple and Koh Ker ruins
