Highlights

Battambang Province - As Cambodia’s second-largest city, Battambang exudes a tranquil charm reminiscent of the French colonial period. It is also referred to as the nation’s “rice bowl” due to its significant contribution to Cambodia’s rice production, ensuring the country’s food self-sufficiency.
Arrive in Battambang around 10:00 am, embark on a city tour that includes a stroll along the Steung Sangké River and an exploration of the colonial architecture, such as the governor’s residence. Proceed to the impressive hilltop temples at Phnom Sampeau, a prominent limestone formation riddled with caves, some of which are easily accessible and others that house poignant relics of Cambodia’s past. Cap off the experience with a bamboo train ride at Phnom Banan, offering a glimpse into the innovative transportation methods devised by local farmers.
Conclude the day with a drive through Battambang’s historic district.

A must do tour - This tour was very well organised the tour guide Mourk was extremely patient, attentive, and informative. The driver was also very friendly and kept us hydrated in the almost 40 degree heat! Battambang is a beautiful place steeped in history and the bamboo train was an unexpected highlight. The lunch was very good with mourk catering to our tastes.

Perfect & fun day! - We had an absolute fantastic day with our guide Mock (Moung Thoui) and our driver Vishna. They were always looking for the best views, the best places, and they were concerned about our well-being throug the whole day. We had two highlights: the bamboo train ride and the perfectly timed stop on our way back: the sunset above the endless rice fields. They even brought some beer so we could cheer upon the wonderful and fun day we had! Thank you very very much, we would always book again with Mock! Désirée & Sinan

Great fun day in Battambang - We had a great day coming from Siem Reap to Battambang. Even if it is a very long drive we had great fun with our guide Mork on the very comfortable bus who explained a lot and showed us villages, caves, temples and the city of Battambang. Highlight was our ride with the Bamboo Train which was great fun. Everything was perfectly organized and we will book with Bayon Guides again! Thank you!
