Taste of Battambang and Bamboo train
Battambang is the provincial capital of Battambang province and is the second biggest town in Cambodia. However, it still has a very local, un-touristy, provincial atmosphere. On this two-day, small group tour (maximum 10 people), travel to Battambang from Siem Reap or Phnom Penh by local bus.
Enjoy a stroll around the city to explore the town and see the old colonial buildings, including the Governor’s residence and the small museum. Visit the Wat Ek Phnom temple along the Sang Ker River and also visit the 12th-century Prasat Bannon temple where you can enjoy a stunning view over the surrounding plains. A real-life experience on the bamboo train will bring you through the countryside and the local villages. On the second day, catch a local taxi back to Siem Reap.

The temple still retains its original beauty and has literally been let undisturbed over time, a stark contrast when compared to most Angkorian ruins.
Next up on the itinerary is the Yeay Peau temple, the silk weaving village in Tonle Bati and the stunning temple of the Black Virgin at Prasat Neang Khmao.
We finally make our way to the Chisor Mountain, which is an ancient site that is known for offering picturesque views of surrounding Cambodian villages and rice paddies. You can also check out the Phnom Chisor Temple on the top of the mountain.
