What to expect

Embark on a full-day guided tour from Siem Reap to Kulen Mountain, enchanting waterfalls, and the ancient temple of Beng Melea. Experience rural life in the floating village of Kampong Phluk by boat and immerse yourself in Cambodian culture and nature on this enriching adventure.

Your tour starts with a morning hotel pickup in Siem Reap. After securing your ticket for Kulen Mountain, the adventure unfolds with a scenic 1-hour drive through rice paddies and traditional Cambodian villages, offering a glimpse into local life and picturesque landscapes. You'll stop at the Palm Cake Village to witness traditional palm cake. Next, ascend to the hilltop of Phnom Kulen, guided by a local. Explore the park's highlights, including magnificent waterfalls, a reclining Buddha sculpture, and the River of Thousand Lingas from 802 AD.

After that you'll stop for a picnic at a nearby waterfall, where you can enjoy grilled chicken with seasonal fruits and swimming at the waterfalls before heading deep into a rainforest to explore Beng Melea, a mysterious 12th-century jungle from the Angkor Wat period. You'll continue the journey with a boat ride to Kampong Phluk, the floating village. Witness the daily lives of families dependent on fishing, residing in colorful houses on stilts. Then you'll enjoy boating along the flooded beauty of a mangrove forest, home to diverse species including crab-eating macaques, before you're transferred back to your hotel in Siem Reap.
