A short drive takes us to nearby Wat Kor to see heritage Khmer homes built over a century ago and get our first taste of Khmer village life.

Next it’s Ta Prohm, whose crumbling walls have been swallowed by root systems from the surrounding jungle - an atmospheric testament to its age.
Finally, we come to Angkor Wat, the most exquisite and complete structure in the whole complex, where we’ll hear about its myths, stories and religious history from an expert local guide. After lunch at a local restaurant, the rest of the day is free to explore at your leisure.

Boarding a local boat we’ll sail out through mangrove forests, keeping a look out for birds and wildlife, to visit one of these fascinating floating communities. We’ll get hands on in the art of broom making with a local family, and help with village chores - farming, fishing or taking care of animals - during a guided walk.
After a simple Khmer lunch, there’s time to see or try more activities, or just chat with the villagers about life on the lake. Heading back to Siem Reap, we’ll stop at a Buddhist temple to receive a blessing from the monks and this evening we’ve arranged a visit to the Big Top of Phare, whose young circus performers enthral audiences with their acrobatics and stories about Cambodian history and folklore.

Then it’s the landmark art deco Central Market, a noisy hubbub where you’ll find everything from Buddhas to bandanas. We’ll up the tempo as we board a speedboat for the next leg of our Mekong River tour.

Later we’ll see a different side to life in rural Vietnam as we take a small boat downriver to a Muslim Cham village, whose mosques and stilted houses have a distinct architectural style.

We’ll then swap our sampan for a rowboat to scull the little canals shaded by water coconut trees. Next, it’s on by bicycle to learn about other local cottage industries like mushroom cultivation, beekeeping and a weaver who makes straw hats and baskets.
After tucking into Mekong delicacies for lunch, eaten al fresco in a family’s garden, we head back to the sampan to return to the mainland, and drive back to Ho Chi Minh City in the late afternoon.

We’ll see history first-hand at the War Remnants Museum and at Reunification Palace, which witnessed the end of the Vietnamese War in 1975. And we’ll visit the Central Post Office which was designed by the French architect Gustav Eiffel.
Lastly, we’ll explore the graceful curves of one of the city’s most flamboyant and beautiful buildings, the Saigon Opera House. Spend this afternoon at leisure, exploring more of the city or relaxing at the hotel.
