Siem Reap Trip Overview
Angkor may be the magnet that draw in visitors from around the globe and has put Siem Reap on the map as one amazing place to witness the splendour of the once mighty Khmer Empire but there is more than meets the eye.
Siem Reap’s origins and the widely-spread province borders has always been the domain of rural activities: fertile grounds and generation-long traditions in work in cohesion with land and available means to give the nation ample fresh ingredients that are the cradle of Khmer cuisine. Scattered around Siem Reap are still villages and settlements that have not turned away from traditional forms of agriculture and buffalo as their priced possession. We have brought this means of transport and visualize in a laid-back way back into play when guests seek a relaxing way to bear witness of traditional farming while buffalos tread land roads with you as their passenger.
