Itinerary

DAY 1: Phnom Penh - Kep - Koh Tonsay

 

Journeying south, we make for the colonial-era coastal resort of Kep-sur-Mer, known simply as Kep today. Once little more than a ghost town, its charms are once again being discovered and new hotels and resorts are opening up. After dining on fresh crab in Kep, we board a boat for the short journey to Koh Tonsay or Rabbit Island in English, where we will lead the life of lotus eaters for the night. While our team makes camp, you are free to swim or relax or explore the island, inhabited by a small community of fisherfolk. Later we have a seafood barbecue for supper.

DAY 2: Koh Tonsay - Kep - Kampot

 

We leave the morning free to enjoy the island life and make for Kep for lunch. We continue to Kampot, stopping to explore the cave temple at Phnom Chhnork, dating from the 7 th century but perfectly preserved in its underground location. Kampot is a charming riverside town with a rich legacy of French architecture. We check into the Bokor Mountain Club, set in handsome old building and enjoy sunset over Bokor Mountain, our destination the following day.

 

DAY 3: Kampot - Bokor National Park

 

We depart Kampot for abandoned hill station of Bokor, set within the lush surroundings of Bokor National Park. The road snakes upwards through the jungle, arriving at the 1000m plateau, with magnificent views across the coast of Cambodia. We take in the atmosphere of this ghost town with a visit to the empty Bokor Palace Hotel and King Sihanouk's old guest villa. Our team set up camp while we visit the impressive Popokvil Falls where we can have a picnic lunch. From here, it is possible to trek back to the abandoned hill station for three hours through the jungle or you can return by car and enjoy an afternoon at leisure at Bokor.

 

DAY 4: Bokor National Park - Sihanoukville

 

We leave Bokor after breakfast, heading down the mountain road to the coast below. We journey west to Cambodia's leading beach destination, Sihanoukville, also sometimes known as Kompong Som. We enjoy lunch in town and leave the afternoon free for you to enjoy the stunning beaches here. We spend the night at a comfortable beachside hotel or resort.

 

DAY 5: Sihanoukville - Koh Rong Samleon

 

This morning, we board a boat to journey to the island of Koh Rong Samleon, one of the most beautiful off Cambodia's coast. On the way, we can stop at selected snorkeling spots for a chance encounter with some marine life. Once at the island, our team set up the camp, while you relax in the crystal clear waters or on the white sand beach that you have all to yourself. At night we have a fresh seafood barbecue.

 

DAY 6: Koh Rong Samleon - Sihanoukville or Phnom Penh

 

After breakfast, we have most of the morning free for swimming, sunbathing or exploring the island. We return to Sihanoukville by boat where the trip can be extended for a more traditional beach holiday or you can return to Phnom Penh by car.
The luxury Angkor Safari Tent allows us to take you to places in Cambodia that currently have no or little tourism infrastructure, ensuring you have a truly unique experience. The tents are based upon the tried and tested African safari luxury tents. Each day they are pitched at our destination by our staff on a durable tarpaulin and they consist of two layers, the outer waterproof layer sits about 20cm above the inner layer. The inner layer comes with complete mosquito and insect protection and includes five meshed windows for light and breeze during the day. The overall dimensions of the tent are 3m wide x 4m long x 2.5m high. Yes, you heard it right, 2.5m high offering standing room throughout. Furnishings include custom-designed camp beds, 2m long by 1m wide with a foam mattress and cotton bedding. There are small square tables inside for suitcases or rucksacks, and two chairs and a table under the veranda awning where you can relax and enjoy morning tea and coffee, as well as and your meals which are prepared by our expert cooks.
What about calls of nature? – no problem! The Angkor Safari Tent comes equipped with toilet and shower tents to ensure maximum privacy in the middle of nowhere. The shower is the same as an African bush shower, essentially a heavy-duty bag that is filled with water and has a handle to stop and start the flow. Our team boils up a large pan of iodised water, mixes it with some cold and voila, a hot shower in the jungle. The toilet is a wooden box with a standard toilet seat on top. When our team sets up camp, they dig a small hole and put the toilet tent over the top. When everything is packed away, it is filled in again leaving no trace.
