Highlights

A fun half day afternoon tour around some of the key sights in Battambang and the surrounding countryside. You will be picked up in Battambang around 1pm, then we'll start with a short tuk-tuk tour of the city, passing major historical landmarks. Next, we'll head out into the Battambang countryside for a unique ride on the original old Bamboo train, organised by local people (*see below for bamboo train ticket cost - see Excluded). Continuing through the countryside, we'll stop at a fruit farm, visit Battambang's famous suspension bridge (great photo opportunity), visit a local mushroom farm and learn how local people grow mushrooms in the village. Then we'll drive along roads through rice fields to visit a secret bat cave and enjoy a beautiful sunset (more great photo opportunities), before returning to Battambang city.

  • 5Amazing value trip.

    Incredible day. The 11 year old and I both loved it. Great mix of history, adrenaline, fun. Heaps packed into 6 hours. Very knowledgeable guide with good English. Incredible value. Just make sure to have an extra $20 to add bamboo train and Ute ride up to caves.

  • 5Great guy, lovely tour.

    It was fantastic, we only had about 3/4 hours as the bus company cancelled our bus to Phnom Penh and put us on a 3pm one. But Mr.Kim made sure we saw as much as possible in our short period of time. He explained things clearly and made it interesting, very funny and made sure we understood his countries history and culture before we left. I would recommend him to anyone who's interested in seeing more of Battambang, just wish we had more time :(

  • 5Highly recommend!

    The tour with Mr. Kim was fantastic! He is a very kind, funny, and open-minded guide with a great personality. We explored Battambang with him by tuk-tuk, and he shared a lot of interesting information about all the sights we visited. We enjoyed it so much that we decided to book a private tour with him the next day. We were able to tell him what we wanted to see, and he created a personalized itinerary just for us, which made the experience even more special. Both days were absolutely beautiful and so much fun. We got a great insight into the city and local life in Battambang. I can highly recommend this tour! It was truly one of the highlights of our trip. A huge thank you for these unforgettable days! Take care and see you next time :)

  • 5A must do in Battambang

    Such an amazing experience for a cheap price! You learn so much about Battambang and see incredible views. He even has a secret spot to watch the sunset and bats which is surreal. A really nice man who you enjoy spending the day with. I would not recommend anyone to come Battambang without doing this tour. Thanks so much Kim! - Matt, Evie, Erin (United Kingdom)

  • 5A good introduction

    A good introduction to the local area with relevant history. Filled a full afternoon into the evening. We were intrigued before arriving in Battambang about the Bamboo Train and Bat Cave and both were a unique experience. Be prepared to be dusty. Have some spare cash for extra fees or unintended shopping. Mr Fie was our Tuk Tuk driver/guide who made our experience very special. He shared some personal experiences with us that were very emotional but he also gave us some joy (and a few local desserts to try)

About Battambang

Battambang is a quiet riverside city in north-west Cambodia, with French colonial streets, hill temples, a circus school and a wide rice plain.

Battambang lies on the Sangkae River in the middle of Cambodia's main rice-growing plain, and its French colonial shophouses, many of them faded and weathered, still line the streets near the water. The covered market anchors the old town, and a short walk leads to art galleries and cafés. Phare Ponleu Selpak, an arts school, stages circus shows that tell Cambodian stories.
