What's this trip about?

    Touchdown in Siem Reap, Cambodia, and spend your nights in the city that rests at the gate to the ruins of Angkor. Explore amazing temples on full-day tours, starting with the crown jewel, Angkor Wat. Let fortified cities and temples lost in jungles amaze and inspire you. Delicate carvings, beautiful temples dedicated to ancient gods, and unique shrines all await on your travels, and you'll get to see them all. Enjoy a tour through a silk farm and get an in-depth understanding of the entire process that results in beautiful yards of silk, wander through forests where mysterious and ancient temples and faces stare at you from between the foliage. Then move toward the future, first with a stop at the port town of Kampong Cham, where you'll get to visit the site of a folk legend, then on to Phnom Penh.
