The main tourist destination in Cambodia is Siem Reap, which is situated in the northwest of the country. It acts as a link between the Angkor Complex's historic temples and ruins. But there is more to Siem Reap than Angkor, and tourists can choose from a plethora of fascinating activities. Our Siem Reap Discovery tour package offers a less crowded way to see the remote Angkor temples, which were discovered in the jungle not long ago, and the rich, cultural communities.
