Why Visit Battambang? 

Custom made tours to Battambang designed by locals ensure you get the most out of your holiday. During an unforgettable trip to Battambang ride a bamboo train, visit Cambodia’s first winery, discover the birthplace of the renowned Phare Circus, and enjoy the most authentic Khmer food . Tourists travel to this gorgeous rural area each year to immerse themselves in the traditional Cambodian way of life in a picturesque rural setting. Tours to Angkor Wat and Siem Reap provide a glimpse into Cambodian culture, but a holiday to Battambang brings you closer to Cambodia’s heart. 

Tours to Battambang

The film First They Killed My Father was filmed in Battamang. We offer history tours in the region where you will visit Phnom Sampeau, a former base of the brutal Khmer Rouge. It provides a sobering reminder of just how recent the mass genocide in Cambodia was and the impacts it still has today. 

One can be mistaken for thinking Angkor Wat is the sole destination in Cambodia to visit ancient temples. Our tours in Battambang are designed to immerse you in local life and culture by visiting local temples, before heading out of town to visit the ancient ruins of the Banan Temple. 

A tour to Battamang wouldn’t be complete without a ride on the famous bamboo train. This open-top train made almost entirely from bamboo is the perfect way to breathe in the stunning countryside.

If you were fortunate enough to witness the brilliant acrobatics and theatre at the Phare Circus in Siem Reap, we can add a stop to the academy where Cambodia’s best performers are trained before being accepted to perform at the circus.
