Take the tour and visit interesting temples along the way. Learn about Buddhism and the history of the local communities from your guide.

Continue our ride to the Silk House, where you can witness the timeless art of traditional silk weaving that has been passed down from generation to generation. Be prepared to be enchanted by the intricate techniques involved in crafting this luxurious fabric. You will be amazed at how each delicate thread is woven with skill and precision to create stunning patterns and designs that have stood the test of time.

Then, we cycle along the Mekong trails and board a typical boat for a cruise along the Mekong and Tonle Sap rivers. Relax and enjoy the sunset with free-flowing drinks (beer and soft drinks) and Canapé before heading back to your hotel.
