Activity itinerary

Battambang
  • 5h
The journey from Phnom Penh to Battambang is an experience that showcases Cambodia's rich landscapes and vibrant culture. This route, spanning approximately 300 kilometres, presents several transport modes, allowing travellers to choose the most suitable option for their journey.
Bamboo Train Ou Srauo Laou
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
The old bamboo train, affectionately known as the ‘Norry,’ presents a unique travel experience that combines history, culture, and adventure. The ride is distinctively slow-paced, allowing travellers to appreciate the natural scenery surrounding them. Amidst the lush greenery, rice paddies, and local villages, riders can witness daily life unfold as they travel through picturesque landscapes.
Killing Caves Of Phnom Sampeau
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
A visit to Phnom Sampov is incomplete without exploring the haunting history of the Killing Cave. During the Khmer Rouge regime in the 1970s, thousands of innocent Cambodians were executed and thrown into the cave. Today, the Killing Cave serves as a memorial to the victims, reminding visitors of the atrocities committed during that dark period. Inside the cave, you can see the remains of the victims and pay your respects at the memorial stupa. While the experience can be emotionally challenging, it is an important reminder of Cambodia's tragic past and the resilience of its people. It serves as a tribute to those who lost their lives and a call for peace and understanding.
Battambang Bat Caves
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Simultaneously, as twilight approaches, an impressive phenomenon occurs—the mass migration of bats from the caves of Phnom Sampov. This enchanting event is not merely a spectacle for the eyes, but also a remarkable natural occurrence. Each evening, million of bats swirl out of their cave dwellings, forming captivating clouds that dance against the backdrop of the darkening sky. The sight of these agile mammals in motion, reveals a blend of nature's artistry and instinct, captivating observers and photography enthusiasts alike.
