Overview

Experience the best of Cambodia's nearby nature and culture on this convenient full-day adventure.
Your journey begins with a stop at the beautiful lakeside area of Tonle Bati. Here, you'll explore the ancient temple ruins of Ta Prohm and Yeay Pov, built over centuries, and enjoy the tranquil atmosphere of the lake.

Next, we visit the Phnom Tamao Wildlife Rescue Center, a safe haven dedicated to wildlife rescue and conservation. You'll spend time exploring the center and learning about the vital work being done to rehabilitate native and exotic animals. After a rewarding morning and a relaxing local lunch, we head to the historical site of Phnom Chisor (Jisor Mountain). Prepare for a gentle hike up the mountain to discover the ruins of an impressive 11th-century ancient temple. The effort is rewarded with a fascinating look at Khmer architecture and breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding countryside before making our return trip to Phnom Penh by the early evening.
