Your countryside jeep tour will begin with a pickup from your accommodation in Siem Reap as your guide gives a short introduction to the tour highlights of the tour. First, visit the War Museum Cambodia, the biggest war museum in the country. Here you’ll find a unique collection of war machines used in Cambodia, some of which seen action during World War II. Among the collection there are also many landmines and rare photographs from periods of war in Cambodia.

You will then explore a Buddhist temple in order to understand the practice of Buddhism in Cambodia. Get a spiritual blessing by a monk and listen to a Khmer fortune-telling.
