Cambodia with children (family / kids)
Travel with children is perfectly fine in Cambodia. It is safe, distances are reasonable, there is plenty to do and people are very child friendly. Why wait to travel until the kids are grown up? Kids can easily join from the age of 6. They enjoy the cultural differences and notice complete different things than adults. Of course you should adjust the pace a little to the children.
Cambodia is 5 hours (6 hours in winter) ahead of Central Europe Time. Don’t plan too much during the first 2 days because of the jetlag and choose hotels with a pool. It’s nice if the children can have a swim at the end of the day! Many hotels have family rooms or connecting doors.It is nice to include activities for children in your program. You can see the temples of Angkor, go from temple to temple by bike, they can sit on an elephant and they can use their full imagination going to the jungle temples. The Tonle Sap Lake is impressive when you take a boat trip and visit the floating villages. Take some bread and fruit and let the children hand out to their peers in the villages. An unforgettable experience for them!
A ride on the "bamboo train" in Battambang is an experience for young and old! Only the Killing Fields in Phnom Penh are less suitable for children. But relax on the beach or some adventure in the jungle again is wonderful to do. Here we have a 'child' selection from our program.
