Battambang Full Day Small Group Tour from Siem Reap｜Cambodia

Enjoy a comfortable, air‑conditioned trip from Siem Reap to Battambang (about 2.5–3 hours), passing flood plains, stilt villages, and rice paddies with your guide explaining how the province helps feed Cambodia.

Stop first at Wat Ek Phnom, an atmospheric 11th‑century Angkorian temple with fewer crowds and beautiful surviving carvings. Then visit a rice paper village to see how spring roll sheets are made, with fresh tastings, followed by a lively local stop at Psar Nat market for optional street food.

After exploring Battambang’s French colonial architecture, enjoy the famous bamboo train (norry)—a fun ride through rice fields and banana plantations. Lunch is around 2:00 PM at a local restaurant (about 3–5 USD per person; vegetarian options available if requested).

In the afternoon, ride up Phnom Sampov in a pickup truck and explore Wat Sampov, then visit the killing caves with a careful historical explanation. Finally, before sunset, head to the bat cave viewing platform for one of Southeast Asia’s top wildlife spectacles—millions of bats swirling out continuously for about 30–45 minutes.

Return to Siem Reap around 9:00 PM.
