Full description

A 1-day trip from Siem Reap that visits Krong Siem Reap, Phnom Kulen Mountain, Poeng Ta Kho (Amazing Cliff) and Kulen park. There are 6 stops altogether, so it fills the day rather than leaving long gaps between two or three highlights. The price covers Pick up & drop off from your hotels, English Licensed Guide and A/C vehicles ( Car/Van/SUV ) with driver. It does not cover national park kulen mountain ticket: 20u and meals ( lunch ), so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price. Phnom Kulen is the sandstone plateau the Angkor temples were quarried from and the place where Jayavarman II declared himself universal monarch in 802, which is the founding date Cambodians give their empire. The road up is steep and the site carries its own USD 20 entry, separate from the Angkor Pass. At the top are the two-tier waterfall people swim under, the river bed carved with lingas at Kbal Spean's larger cousin, and a reclining Buddha cut into a boulder at the summit pagoda, reached barefoot. It is a full day from Siem Reap and best in or just after the rains, when the falls actually run. This one is priced for the group rather than per head: 1 traveller costs $214 and 8 costs $234, so the more of you there are the less each of you pays. Happy Angkor Tour Cambodia runs it. We book with them directly, so the guide who meets you works for the operator rather than for a reseller.
