We were very pleased with our 9-day Cambodia tour with Auasia Travel. The itinerary was well planned and gave us a wonderful variety of experiences from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh.
We began with the incredible temples around Angkor, followed by visits to the countryside and local communities in Battambang. It was interesting to see a different side of Cambodia beyond the main tourist attractions. The journey through Kampong Chhnang, Chambok and Kirirom National Park added beautiful natural scenery and made the trip feel very diverse.
After several days of sightseeing, spending time on Koh Rong Sanloem was a lovely change of pace. We enjoyed having time to relax and appreciate the peaceful island surroundings before continuing to Phnom Penh for the final part of the tour.
Everything throughout the journey was handled very well. We stayed in lovely hotels, had comfortable transportation and received excellent support from our tour guide. The services were reliable, and the beautiful weather made the experience even more enjoyable.
Our only small difficulty was adjusting to some Cambodian dishes, as the flavors were stronger than we were used to. However, this did not take away from what was a fantastic trip overall. We are already planning to visit Vietnam, Thailand and Laos next year and hope to book with Auasia Travel again.

We had a wonderful holiday with Auasia Travel and returned home feeling both energized and refreshed. Special thanks to Ms. Jenny and the entire Auasia Travel team for organizing everything so carefully throughout our 9-day Cambodia tour.
The journey began in Siem Reap, where we explored the remarkable temples of Angkor before continuing to Battambang and experiencing more of Cambodia’s countryside and local communities. From there, the itinerary took us through Kampong Luong, Kampong Chhnang, Chambok and Kirirom National Park, giving us the opportunity to see a wide variety of landscapes and destinations within a relatively short time.
The stay on Koh Rong Sanloem was a relaxing part of the journey and provided a refreshing break after several days of sightseeing. We then continued to Phnom Penh for the final stage of our Cambodia tour from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh.
We were impressed by how much the itinerary included in only nine days while still feeling well organized. Every part of the trip ran smoothly, and the support from Auasia Travel made the experience comfortable and enjoyable from beginning to end.
We truly loved this journey and would happily recommend both the tour and Auasia Travel to anyone looking for a varied Cambodia culture, nature and beach experience.

Our 9-day Cambodia tour began in Siem Reap with the remarkable temples of Angkor. We then continued to Battambang, where we discovered more of the country’s rural landscapes and local communities. The journey through Kampong Luong Floating Village, Kampong Chhnang, Chambok and Kirirom National Park gave us the chance to experience several different sides of Cambodia beyond its famous historical sites.
After the cultural and countryside experiences, our stay on Koh Rong Sanloem provided a relaxing change of pace before we continued to Phnom Penh for the final part of the trip. This combination of temples, local life, nature and island relaxation made the itinerary especially enjoyable.
Every aspect of the tour was carefully arranged and smoothly managed. We appreciated all the guides, the comfortable hotels, the sightseeing tours and the meals arranged during the journey. Every part of the trip went very well, allowing us to relax and enjoy each destination without worrying about the details.
We enjoyed every minute of this Cambodia tour from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh. Thank you again to Linh Tracy and the Auasia Travel team for making our first Cambodia experience so memorable.
