And what better way to take you on this trip than with a vintage jeep? By jeep, you get an even more unique experience of Cambodia’s countryside, along with a driver and private English speaking guide. Are you adventurous enough to go off-road?

Itinerary

This is a private tour so you can have your own choice of departure time. We recommend a time between 08:00 and 09:00 am.

We leave Siem Reap town in the vintage jeep and drive out to the beautiful countryside of Bakong where we will get on our bicycles and drive along the red soil roads through the villages. It is going to be a nice and peaceful ride which is flat all throughout. We will stop by the local Bakong market on the way where you can observe traditional Khmer trade, a daily event. After cycling, we take a small break for some cool drinks before continuing to the next part of the trip.

Floating Village – Kampong Khleang.

We then resume our journey with the visit of one of the most impressive floating villages in Cambodia – Kampong Khleang. Along the way, there is the opportunity to go off road and have a glimpse of other villages. When we arrive at Kampong Khleang, we will board a boat and head out to explore the floating village. At some point, your stomach will start rumbling… but don’t worry! That’s when we take you to a stilt house in the village to share a typical Khmer lunch.

After lunch we’ll hop on the boat to explore more of the floating village. You’ll get to see the floating school, hospital and local shops. An amazing sight, we promise! After that, we get back to reach a school and pagoda located on an island. We always have a great time there, walking by the monk school and watching monks in their day-to-day routine. Please remember to dress modestly with your knees and shoulders covered to respect the local culture during the tour.

The program may change a bit as our tour leader can decide day by day what’s best. Depending on the weather, the ability of our guests to ride a bicycle, and other matters that may lead him to decide to change the itinerary. Don’t forget to read our FAQ to get some complementary information.

At the end of the day, we return to the jeep and start driving back to Siem Reap passing through a different route for you to have a glimpse of other villages and to have an off-road experience. We will be stopping by one of them and there you can have the chance to interact with friendly villagers and enjoy a local snack.

We usually arrive back to town around 5 PM which may vary depending on your interest and energy (time spent with the locals, speed on the bicycle, etc.).
