Is this trip right for you?
verified
This trip includes some long travel days. Although this can be tiresome, it’s all part of the adventure and a great way to get to know your fellow travellers and enjoy the picturesque scenery.
verified
Lots of time allocated for optional activities means freedom and flexibility, but also a level of independence. Only a few meals are included, but your leader will have plenty of suggestions for great eats at any budget. This is a great way to mingle with locals and discover unexpected delights!
verified
You'll be spending a night with a local family on this trip. While the accommodation is shared and basic, this is a great opportunity to connect with the local people (and enjoy delicious home-cooked meals!).

Temperatures and humidity can be high in Cambodia, especially when walking around sights like the Angkor complex, where there may be little shade. Be prepared by taking plenty of drink breaks and wearing appropriate skin protection. Some travellers find an umbrella handy to keep the sun off (this will also come in handy if it rains!).
verified
You will visit a number of temples on this trip, and this requires a level of modesty. Be sure to bring clothes that cover your arms and pants or skirts that go past the knees. A light scarf is also a good idea for covering shoulders and arms when it’s hot.
verified
This trip is part of a longer itinerary. You might be joining travellers who have already spent some time together. If you have more time to explore, you might like to check out Epic South East Asia or Epic Vietnam to Cambodia.

An amazing way to see Cambodia and learn about this beautiful, resilient country. The quality of tours and activities was great, whether from our tour leader or local guides, and I learnt so much. A fast-paced whirlwind of a trip but you will see and experience so much, and in the safe hands of your tour leader.

I’m a 19-year-old female. I’m grateful that I chose an Intrepid tour for my first „solo“ travel experience. I had a great time with Intrepid! Everything was well organized: accommodations, transportation, activities, etc. The tour leaders were super lovely and their first priority was always the group's well-being.
