Itinerary

Meet a driver at your hotel in Siem Reap for the scenic, 2-hour trip to Phnom Kulen Mountain, passing a landscape of tropical forest and rural communities in your air-conditioned vehicle. 

The first stop of the day is a hilltop temple, where you’ll find a massive reclining Buddha carved directly into a sandstone boulder. Next, head to the River of a Thousand Lingas, exploring a riverbank adorned with ancient carvings of phalluses and Hindu gods.

Cool off at another sacred site, Phnom Kulen Waterfalls, which tumble into a wide basin that’s ideal for a midday swim or wade. Throughout the day, the guide will help bring the ancient sites to life by explaining their significance and symbolism, and you’ll have time to purchase lunch at a local restaurant before the return trip to Siem Reap.

Phnom Kulen

Gut organisierte Tour zum Phnom Kulen in einer Kleingruppe. Unser sehr gut Englisch sprechender Guide Han konnte uns sehr viele Informationen über den religiösen Hintergrund des Phnom Kulen vermitteln. Auch allgemeine Informationen über das heutige Leben in Kambodscha konnten wir erfragen und erhielten persönliche Antworten. Der liegende Buddha ist beeindruckend. Schön ist eine Erfrischung am Wasserfall. Leider haben nicht alle Besucher Respekt vor der Kultur und baden halbnackt.

Phnom kulen

Guide was friendy and good. Liked the lookout, waterfall and big Buddha statue. Pickup was 10 mins late but thats not a big issue. The price may have been a bit high as my friend has done a different Phnom Kulen tour for a lower price.

Très belle excursion de dernière minute

Une excursion que j'ai réservé à la dernière minute et qui en valait la peine : les lieux visités sont magnifiques et le guide qui accompagnait mon groupe (Choub) était plein d'énergie et pertinent dans ses explications, en particulier avec moi car contrairement aux autres personnes, je ne connaissais pas grand chose à l'hindouisme et c'est quelque chose dont il a tenu compte !
