Siem Reap to Kampot via Phnom Chisor Temple

A full-day experience in Siem Reap. The operator sums it up as travel from siem reap to kampot in a private air-conditioned vehicle. The price covers Hotel pickup in Siem Reap, Hotel drop-off in Kampot and Private air-conditioned vehicle. It does not cover phnom chisor temple entrance fee, licensed tour guide and meals and beverages, 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. The countryside immediately around Siem Reap is rice paddy, sugar-palm trees and villages that are five minutes off the temple road and rarely seen by people doing the circuits. The sugar palm is the national tree and its sap is tapped from the crown by men who climb a notched pole twice a day, boiled down to the palm sugar used in every Khmer kitchen. The rice year sets everything: transplanting in the wet months, the fields green through the rains, harvest around November and December, then dry stubble and dust. Late afternoon is when the light works and when the villages are out, so most of these rides run to sunset. The price steps with party size rather than multiplying: 1 traveller is $389, 5 is $462 and 8 is $903. You are quoted the total for your party, not a per-head rate. Golden Escape Cambodia runs it. We book with them directly, so the guide who meets you works for the operator rather than for a reseller.
