Family Holiday in Cambodia

Cambodge
'

A Cambodian proverb perfectly sums up the Khmer philosophy of life: "Give, but be not hasty to take." You and your children will be greeted by the famous smile of the Cambodians, their kindness and unfailing serenity, making for a fun family trip.

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!

What I like about Cambodia is that the both young and old will find something to call this trip as a fun filled holidays. Play Indiana Jones or Lara Croft in the middle of the jungle and lost temples. Share story with locales who welcome you with a big smile; Leave for the Gulf of Siam Virgin Islands as Robinson Crusoe.
