Shanti Travel has come up with this family trip to Cambodia in keeping with the rhythm of life of the country. There are long stays to allow you time to discover yourself. There are many fun activities for the young and old alike that expose you to the richness of Khmer culture. What can be better than a treasure hunt in the Angkor temples to discover the history and myths of these temples with your family? You'll end your stay with the beaches of Sihanoukville and Kep to get your fair share of sunshine and the sea before leaving.

Whether in the February holidays, or around Easter or Christmas, enjoy the lush surroundings of Cambodia: Tropical jungles, floating villages on the Tonle Sap, waterfalls of the Khmer countryside, and unexplored islands in the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Siam await your arrival.

It may be your first trip to Asia with family or you may even be distinguished travellers. Cambodia will welcome you accordingly and will undoubtedly give your whole family a taste for travelling and for Asia!

day 3

There's nothing like a treasure hunt to make your visit to Angkor Thom great fun. The prompt is handed to you by your guide in the form of a map and a list of 10 places to photograph. This would take you through a series of beautiful forgotten sites. At the South Gate of Angkor Thom you will take a ride on the popular but mysterious Bayon elephant, then continue on foot to the temple of Preah Pithu. This is your turn to play! The evening is free. Overnight at the hotel.
