The following are Gx Cambodia - Ambassadors tour dates available from G Adventures. Select a bonus offer graphic to view its details, including its terms.
Welcome to the capital of Cambodia - Phnom Penh! Upon arrival, you'll be greeted at the airport and taken to your hotel. After settling in, kick off this exciting venture by joining the whole GX crew for a spectacular 'Temple Fair' themed welcome dinner at the historic Wat Phnom. Meet your CEOs and hosts, and get the full down-low on the journey ahead as you dive into an authentic, G-style introduction to the magic of GX Cambodia!
Your opportunity to meet your CEO and fellow travellers, and learn more about your tour. Opt to join the group for a local meal afterwards. Don't forget to see the notice in the lobby (or ask reception) for the official time and place to meet up with the group.
Today's adventure is off to an incredible start. We'll kick things off by exploring the rich culture and vibrant history of Cambodia, from the majestic Royal Palace to the resilience of the Khmer people at S21. After a boxed lunch aboard a scenic river cruise, we'll head to the Silk Village to see traditional weaving in action. Then we'll finish the evening with a delicious, authentic feast at a local restaurant - the perfect end to an incredible day.
Visit the King's current dwelling place, a magnificent riverside palace with classic Khmer architecture. Dress appropriately please; visitors must wear clothing that covers knees and shoulders, and shirts must reach the elbow.
Learn about the dark history and devastation that occurred at Security Prison 21 (S-21); the prison, used by the Khmer Rouge regime, is now Tuol Sleng Museum. Take a guided tour to hear the stories behind the sombre photos lining the museum walls.
We leave the capital behind and head for the jungle - specifically, the ancient temple complex of Sambor Prei Kuk, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where stone towers have been quietly reclaimed by the forest for centuries. We'll refuel with lunch at a local homestay, offering a glimpse into daily life and traditional cuisine prepared by the Sambor Prei Kuk Community, a Planeterra partner that generates income for local families while supporting conservation efforts in surrounding villages. Then we'll roll into Siem Reap - the town that lives in the shadow of Angkor and thrives on it. We'll end the day with a delicious dinner at the hotel.
An early start rewards us with a breathtaking sunrise over Angkor Wat, followed by a community-supported breakfast at Spoons, a Planeterra partner, that empowers local youth through hospitality training and career opportunities. You'll then explore the "city on stilts" at Kampong Phluk Floating Village. We'll cap off the day with dinner at a local restaurant and, if you like, you can really get the night started among the neon lights and bustling energy of Pub Street.
Hop-on a wooden boat and enjoy a scenic ride through the high-stilt house village of Kampong Kleang.
Witness the iconic sunrise over Angkor Wat before returning back to the hotel for breakfast.
Happy World Tourism Day! Today is the centerpiece of our trip: the World Community Tourism Summit. You'll join industry trailblazers to discuss how travel can be a force for global good. To cap off this transformative day, we'll host a grand, final celebration at an iconic secret location featuring traditional cultural performances under the stars.
All good things must come to an end, and today is departure day. After a final breakfast, pack your bags and bid farewell to the new friends you've made from all over the world. Take a moment to cherish the incredible memories we've made together as we head to the airport for your journey home. Thank you for exploring the Kingdom of Wonder and sharing our love for making the world a better place. Until we meet again!
We recommend booking outbound travel no earlier than 9am
