The plateau where Sen Monorom is located is about 3000 feet above sea level, making it a cool region for Cambodia. The climate plays a particularly important role and you'll need to consider it in your travel plans. The rainy season makes access to the town complicated because of landslides. As for winter, don't forget your fleece, because it gets cold at night!

Sil Island is called that because of the numerous silk weavers who perpetuate their skills. You can spend a day here , cycling around and discovering the real, authentic Cambodia.

Banteay Srei is a Cambodian temple located in the vast territory occupied by the temples of Angkor. It is also known as the "Citadel of Women", and the fineness and delicacy of its decoration is quite extraordinary.

Feel a total sense of wonder standing before the temples of Angkor! The dark years of Cambodia are gone for good and the country is open to the world. Visitors are ever increasing and come to discover the majestic site of Angkor, the internationally renowned pearl of the tourist industry. The city of Angkor has known an extraordinary fate: forgotten for several centuries, rediscovered by the French in 1907 and once again forgotten. Visitors have been able to rediscover its secrets for the past twenty years. Built between the 9th and 14th Centuries, Angkor was one of the biggest towns in the world and is today, one of the most visited sites in the world! Although it’s difficult to be able to contemplate these sublime temples alone, like the explorers of the beginning of the 20th century, to discover them through Evaneos Travel, will guarantee you an adventure off the beaten tracks and a long way away from tourists. Enchantment is guaranteed! Cambodia also has other riches to offer curious visitors: as a member of Evaneos Travel, the things you will remember about your holiday, apart from the magnificent sites you have visited, will undoubtedly be the « kindness and availability of the Cambodians », that you will be lucky enough to encounter during your visit…

Stung Treng is the last major town before the Laos border (with Si Phan Don – or "4000 Islands" – lying just 50 kilometres away). It's simply a place at which to make a brief stopover and has nothing of any real interest to offer, except perhaps that it serves as a way to get to Ratanakiri.

Koh Trong is a tiny island in the south of Cambodia with beautiful scenery: large white sand beaches, warm turquoise sea, little bungalows on the sea shore... In short, paradise! Fruit there is delicious and cheap. In the evening, even the most ardent party goers have a huge choice as lots of bars turn into night clubs. There is a beautiful, if difficult, walk from one side of the island to the other toreach the "long beach" - which is very long. When the sun goes down the scenery is magical. There are boats that will take you back to the other side of the island at nightfall.

One thing is certain, on a family trip to Cambodia, neither you nor your kids will ever be bored. <h3>Best things&nbsp;to see and do in&nbsp;Cambodia with kids</h3>Cambodia’s overgrown temples make the perfect stomping ground for family travellers and provide the perfect mixture between fascinating history for the adults, (that may even keep the kids entertained for a bit too) and fun environment for kids to play in. While the UNESCO-listed site of&nbsp;<a data-place-id="16916" data-internal-link="place">Angkor Wat</a> is the most popular choice, Cambodia has so many temples and interesting archaeological sites that you can choose to head away from the crowds without compromising on any of the fun. <a data-place-id="14753" data-internal-link="place">Beng Mealea</a> is just one example of another temple site that families are sure to love exploring and you will feel like true adventurers as you clamber over the twisted tree roots that cover the remains of this site that once hosted an ancient civilisation. If you want to admire the local countryside in <a data-place-id="16913" data-internal-link="place">Siem Reap</a>, why not hire quad bikes and head off on a thrilling adventure? For younger children, don’t worry, an ox cart ride&nbsp;is a perfect alternative and allows you to experience a fun glimpse of local life here. A local market is another unmissable visit where you and your family will be able to buy souvenirs and taste delicious local food. For an even longer lasting souvenir, you can take a family cooking class to learn how to create all your favourite Cambodian dishes even after you return home. Animal-loving families should visit the Phnom Tamao Wildlife Park to see the native sun bears and you can even help to prepare their food and help to make toys for the bears here. If you're looking for a more authentic, local experience with your children, why not sit down and drink&nbsp;tea with a welcoming local family, who can tell you all about their life in Cambodia and share some fascinating stories? You’ll also love visiting one of Cambodia’s colourful, bustling markets, where the sights and smells (not to mention the food) are sure to sweep you all off your feet!&nbsp;For families wanting to relax, Cambodia’s strings of islands provide the perfect location. Take a boat ride&nbsp;off the shore of <a data-place-id="597" data-internal-link="place">Sihanoukville</a> and land on any of the beautiful islands, each with its own appeal. If you can’t decide, you can go on an island-hopping trip and visit as many as you like.&nbsp; <h3>Best time to visit&nbsp;Cambodia as a family</h3>Cambodia’s weather is very varied but is generally split into a wet season and a dry season, with the dry season falling between November and April. This is the time when Cambodia is most visited and so, in some popular places, can seem a little crowded. If you’re keen to enjoy dry, hot weather with no chances of rain then travelling during this period is the choice for you, however, it is advisable to book accommodation a little in advance since they can fill up. Contrary to its name, rainy season is not filled with constant downpour, but rather sees rainfall for around an hour every day, and usually in the afternoon or evening. This brief daily shower rarely puts off plans but can be quite dramatic and sudden. For the other hours of the day, bright sunshine is accompanied with green scenery as plant life and trees flourish during this season and it is generally considered to be the time when the country is at its most scenic. April and May are very hot and humid, and may be overwhelming for younger visitors who could find dramatic storms frightening, however this can be the perfect time to visit with older children and teenagers since they will be able to enjoy the hot summer mornings and then relax in the shade of a palm tree and have an afternoon siesta during the hot midday hours. You will have to make the decision of <a data-document-id="1946" data-internal-link="article">when to travel </a>based on what you and your family’s needs and what you want to get out of your trip. <h3>Family holiday tips for travelling to&nbsp;Cambodia</h3>With a little research and knowledge you can ensure that you are as prepared as possible for your family trip to Cambodia, here a few tips and tricks to ensure that everything runs smoothly on your holiday. <ul><li style="font-weight: 400;" data-mce-style="font-weight: 400;">Most Southeast Asian countries operate around a very family orientated culture and so you and your kids will feel incredibly welcome here. You may find that children get a lot of attention, with locals stroking their hair (especially if its blonde or curly) and are generally treated like little celebrities. Locals may also ask to hold babies and very young children, which is a completely normal request here. If this makes you uncomfortable you can simply politely decline. </li><li style="font-weight: 400;" data-mce-style="font-weight: 400;">Nothing spoils a holiday quite like a stomach bug and whilst Southeast Asia may have a reputation for this kind of thing, it is completely avoidable and a few good practices may save you trouble later on. Avoid drinking tap water and always ask for drinks without ice in restaurants. </li><li style="font-weight: 400;" data-mce-style="font-weight: 400;">Food wise, if your children aren’t mad about spice, remember to specify that you would like your food without it, since spicy food is the norm here. There are plenty of delicious alternatives but it’s worth mentioning when you order your food to avoid having to reorder something else.</li><li style="font-weight: 400;" data-mce-style="font-weight: 400;">Check in with your GP before leaving to see what vaccinations and medications you will need before and during your trip.</li></ul>

<a href="https://www.evaneos.co.uk/cambodia/" data-mce-href="https://www.evaneos.co.uk/cambodia/"></a><a data-destination-id="88" data-internal-link="destination">Cambodia</a> is the perfect place to immerse yourself in a totally different and exciting culture for one week, enjoying food, landscapes, people and traditions that you may have never encountered before. Whether you’re looking for a relaxing holiday, an action-packed adventure or an educational experience, Cambodia has something special and unforgettable to offer every visitor. <h3>Best things to see and do for one week in Cambodia</h3>What to see in one week The first thing to see on any visitors’ list should be the many ruins and temples that can be found all over Cambodia. With so many to choose from, you’ll never be able to see them all during a 7 day itinerary and so here are some of the best. <a data-place-id="16916" data-internal-link="place">Angkor Wat </a>and <a data-place-id="33480" data-internal-link="place">Angkor Thom</a>; perhaps the most well known ruins in Cambodia are famous due to their size and well preserved detail. Wander through temples and ancient streets and feel as though you’ve been transported back in time. Beng Mealea is another great site of ruined buildings and temples and is the choice for those looking to feel as though they’ve truly explored, since it is almost totally overgrown with vines and jungle. Visit <a data-place-id="21851" data-internal-link="place">Tonlé Sap</a> to cool down after all that adventure in Asia’s largest freshwater lake. Go for a boat ride to see the floating markets and towns along the way. A visit to Phnom Penh is also not to be missed and sightseeing here will give you the opportunity to see incredible things such as the Silver Pagoda, a temple covered in silver tiles and home to several encrusted Buddha statues that make for an impressive sight. The Royal Palace in Phnom Penh is another jaw-dropping sight and you’ll love seeing the colours and details of this amazing building. <h4>What to do in one week</h4>Start in the city of <a data-place-id="22886" data-internal-link="place">Phnom Penh</a> to take in some sightseeing as well as take a few educational tours to get you up to speed with Cambodian culture and history before you set off around the country. What better place to start that with a trip to Phnom Penh’s National Museum of Cambodia to see traditional art and artefacts from many different eras as well as to learn about Cambodia’s more recent history. Before leaving the city, explore the bustle of the many markets that can be found here, as well as all over the country. Visit the central market in Phnom Penh to pick up a few souvenirs that you can take home with you. After some time in the bustling, lively city, a bit of peace and quiet on the beach is just what the doctor ordered and you’ll have a lot of choice when it comes to where you’d like to stay. Otres Beach is popular with visitors for its long stretch of white sand lined with indigenous trees, as well as for its relaxed, youthful atmosphere. You can also head offshore to one of Cambodia’s many islands, such as Koh Thonsáy for a bit of snorkelling or even scuba diving and some much needed time to relax in the sun, sea and sand. <h3>Best time to travel to Cambodia for a week</h3>On a one week trip to Cambodia, it’s important to <a data-document-id="1946" data-internal-link="article">choose the right time of year&nbsp;</a>for your visit&nbsp;to ensure that you get the most out of your itinerary for your short stay here. Due to Cambodia’s weather pattern, it has very clearly defined peak and low seasons, with the peak season falling during the dry and slightly cooler months from November to February. The rainy season falls between June and October, although it often only means a short but dramatic shower or storm each evening and should not be taken off the table as an option. What’s more, prices tend to be cheaper during this period and&nbsp;you can often find a bargain when looking for accommodation. The shoulder seasons that fall between these two major seasons are also great times to visit, meaning that you’ll get the best of both worlds with none of the crowds.
