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.

Tour to kulen

Choub was our guide in this tour and was great. He explained us everything related to budism, hinduism and even moder history of Camboya. It is a great tour not only recommend it to visit the sacred mountains but also to know cambodia's history.

Excellent day with amazing guide

This was a fantastic day out with an amazing, friendly guide. Malin was very knowledgeable and fit the day around us. The atmosphere on the top, near the great Buddha was wonderful. And the views were stunning. Recommend good footwear and prepared for a little bit of scrambling. Thanks again Malin ????????????

An Excellent time

We were picked up from our hotel and had a private ride all day, we were well looked after and our guide was very knowledgeable. He told us all about the area, beliefs and culture. He was good company and happy to answer and of our questions. The sights were great and felt very safe all the way round. The national park was beautiful and so were the falls and the Reclining Buddah was fantastic.Would recommend to others whole heartedly.

Great tour with Phearom!

Mr. Phearom is a very knowledgeable guide and he explained not only the spots we went to but also the history of Cambodia. Our driver, Mr. Khen drove with cautious and we loved his great smile :)The reclining Buddha was very spiritual place and the waterfall was great for swimming.

Kulen Wasserfälle mit super Reiseleitung

Die Kulen Wasserfälle sind für Kabodscha aussergewöhnlich, da relativ naturnah und im Gebirge. Billig ist es nicht, neben den Tourkosten ist noch die Nationalparkgebühr von 18 $ zu bezahlen. Trotzdem sind die Wasserfälle ziemlich belebt, aber das ist wohl überall in Asien zu erwarten.Unser Reiseleiter Pheanom war klasse, hatte super Tips und viele Infos auf Lager.

Phearom is ace

What a lovely day! Phearom is an excellent guide giving you interesting snippets of the history and culture of the country. Those moments where you might be lost wondering what to do are alleviated and he has a great sense of humour to create a special day. The places you visit are interesting, beautiful and highly memorable. I highly recommend this tour.

Amazing experience

I had a really good day and enjoyed seeing the 1000 lingas, buddah statue and cooling of fun the waterfall. The guide, San, was very knowledgeable and keen to answer any questions. He gave us lots of facts about the national park, as well as Cambodian culture. San was also the perfect photographer and took some amazing pictures for us! He even extended his tour guide duties to sending some information about other sites to see in siem reap. Overall a really good experience, one which I would definitely recommend!

Amazing trip, 10/10 would recommend

Guide: Mr San Chau is a committed and well-informed tour guide with great knowledge on Cambodian history, religion, and culture and an incredible treasure of humour and personal experience. He is happy to comply with individual wishes and requests. Amazing! Driver: The minibus was equipped with AirCo and seemed like it came straight from the car dealer. The driver did his best to avoid potholes. Sights: The trip was carefully planned to avoid peak times of other tourist groups. Phnom Kulen National Park is definitely worth a visit, and Mr San Chau made sure that we not only saw the sights but also got in touch with locals and learnt about history, culture and the environment of the sights.

The Best Experience

San is an incredible guide. I came to Cambodia on a solo trip, and had started out renting a tuk tuk at Angkor Wat. It wasn’t until I went on the tour with San that I realized HOW MUCH context I was missing. He is a breadth of information. And the experiences we had, the photos we took, the places we went... all spectacular and special to me. I’m so thankful I had this day.
