The largest religious monument in the world, Angkor Wat stands as the crowning glory of ancient Khmer civilisation. At its height during the 9th-12th centuries, the city of Angkor covered more than 1,000 square kilometers and played home to history's largest pre-industrialised civilisation.
Mountain Bike Tours
If you have never visited Cambodia before and are limited on time, the highlights not to miss are the ancient, UNESCO World Heritage-listed temples of Angkor, including Angkor Wat, and the Mekong riverside capital of Phnom Penh, once regarded as the Venice of old French Indochina.
Liveaboard Diving
There are no sophisticated liveaboard dive boats operating yet in Cambodia, but an overnight, or a two night dive safari to some of the further away islands will bring some surprises. Cambodia Scuba Diver is Cambodia's only purpose built, stay-over dive boat with a fully trained staff of diving instructors from Europe, Australia and North America.
Canoeing & Kayaking
Kampot Province is quintessentially Cambodia - verdant, shimmering rice paddies puntuated with sugar palm trees, with a backdrop of karst limestone hills and the infamous Bokor Tabletop mountain... from where the Kampot River flows down to the French Colonial era river port town of Kampot itself and out to the Gulf of Thaland.
Music & Dance
The Phare Ponleu Selpak Circus combines fun, acrobatics, juggling, contortion and humour while at the same time gives a helping hand to Cambodia's poor families.
