Combo Tour
A TOUR LIKE NONE OTHER
Kid-friendly, a family favourite, and
OUR MOST POPULAR TOUR.
The focus throughout this tour is on FOOD, CULTURE, and CAMBODIANS away from the tourists and temples.
We take in a typical day as it unfolds, but can make no promises related to what you'll see, eat, do, or document along the way--as each and every day differs, and depends on our timing, the weather, and on the season.
Our first stop--an open market--may be an eye sore for some or a true taste of Cambodia for others, but it's arguably the best place to document the local diet. We like to do breakfast there, and have a look around before leaving town for the countryside.
In the countryside we visit a primary school with students at study or play. We visit a monastery and interact with Buddhist monks. We check out basket-weaving and mat-weaving, palm sugar production, blacksmithing, leather work, noodle-making, stone-carving, incense-rolling, rice-planting and harvesting; and, other aspects of rural life, i.e., weddings and funerals, when the opportunities arise. You can even treat your back to a traditional Cambodian massage (cupping), and sample food throughout the day. And if that's not enough, there may even be a few surprises in store.
No insisting, no arm-twisting, no forced-feeding... and no obligation to purchase souvenirs anywhere along the way.
We do like to help those who help us, however, so it's best to have some local currency with you.
Don't worry; we've got you covered!
Before our breakfast stop we visit Huy Keang Currency Exchange (with several branches in town), where we exchange foreign currency for USD and Riel, commission-free. Keep in mind that there is no ATM at the HKCE. If you need cash you'll have to withdraw it elsewhere, preferably before the tour.
Also keep in mind that US $1, $2, and $5 bills are no longer readily accepted, and $10 and $20 bills are also being phased out; so you'll need to change some USD to Riel during your Siem Reap visit, for things such as tuk tuks, T-shirts, elephant pants, massages, laundry, phone cards, food, beverages, souvenirs, etc.).
If you enjoy sampling new things, you'll definitely want to book this tour--a kaleidoscope of food, colours, and culture that is Cambodia.
Don't miss it... and remember to COME ON AN EMPTY STOMACH!
And please HANG ON TO YOUR HAT.
We travel by "air-conditioned" tuk tuk, with hammocks for the kids, and see Cambodia the way it's meant to be seen: slowly and deliberately, not rush-rush. We take in the sights, the sounds, the smells, the food... and, throughout the tour, we stop to take videos and pictures of whatever we want, whenever we want.
