This is a trip you cannot afford to miss if you want to make the most of your time in this delightful country. An exciting blend of river boats and the air-conditioned vehicle will take you in comfort from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap whilst including many fascinating stops end-route. The first leg of your journey is a leisurely boat cruise from Phnom Penh to Koh Chen Island. Riverbank life is at the heart of Khmer culture, and you will see many such aspects as you pass the villages on the way. Your destination island is famous for its silver craftsmen whose skills have been passed from generation to generation. A short walk on the island will also help you to better appreciate life in a traditional Khmer village. The next leg of your journey to Siem Reap is by an air-conditioned vehicle which takes in further places of interest on the way. These include a stop at Skun to see their edible tarantula spiders. Both live and deep-fried spiders are on sale for those who are not faint-hearted! Further stops and highlights include a village famous for its stone carving, a picturesque lunch break beside the impressive Tonle Sap Lake, the famous Kampong Kdei bridge (which is the oldest bridge in Cambodia, dating to the Angkorian era), and the chance to see traditional bamboo sticky rice is prepared. Finally, you reach your Siem Reap destination after a memorable day's sightseeing.
