ITENERARY

A Day in Battambang: Bamboo Train, Temples, Markets, and Bat Caves

Start your day early in Siem Reap, where our friendly tour guide and driver will meet you at your hotel lobby at 6:30 AM. From there, enjoy a scenic 2½-hour drive to Battambang, passing through lush countryside and peaceful villages that give you a glimpse of rural Cambodian life.

Once in Battambang, the adventure begins with a ride on the famous Bamboo Train. This unique experience lets you glide along old railway tracks on a simple bamboo platform while taking in the beautiful rice paddies and village scenery—a fun and memorable way to explore the countryside.

Next, visit the lively Prohoc Market, known as the “Fermented Fish Market.” Here, you can watch locals making rice paper, sample authentic Cambodian rice wine, and experience the everyday life of Battambang residents. From the market, head to Wat Ek Phnom, an 11th-century Angkorian temple. Wander through the ancient ruins and admire the intricate carvings while learning about the temple’s history and cultural significance. A tasty lunch at a local restaurant gives you the perfect break before the afternoon’s adventures.

In the afternoon, explore a traditional wooden house built over a century ago during the French colonial era. Your guide will share fascinating stories about its history and architecture. Then, travel to Phnom Sampov, where a short hike brings you to the Killing Caves and other hidden caves, offering both a glimpse into the past and stunning views of the surrounding countryside. As the sun begins to set, pause on the hillside to watch an incredible natural spectacle: thousands of bats flying back to their caves, filling the sky in a dramatic, unforgettable display.

Finally, after a full day of adventure, culture, and nature, enjoy a comfortable drive back to Siem Reap, arriving in the late evening. This tour is more than just sightseeing—it’s an immersive journey through Battambang’s history, traditions, and natural beauty, offering experiences that you’ll remember long after the day is over.
