All-Inclusive Holidays in Cambodia


Booking an all-inclusive holiday is a wise choice if you want to get on with having a great time the moment you arrive at your destination in sun-drenched Cambodia.

This is a stress-free option where you won’t have to constantly monitor your spending each day, the way you normally would on a traditional pay-as-you-go holiday.

Choosing an all-inclusive escape to the sun means most of your costs are paid-for in advance - your accommodation, your meals and your drinks.

Many all-inclusive deals also include other welcome extras at your hotel - this could include, for example, the use of spas, gyms and other leisure facilities.

Some hotels will also include the use of their facilities on the beach, such as water sports equipment, parasols and sun loungers.

Children also get a great deal when it comes to all-inclusive holidays. Most hotels and resorts will keep them happy with free ice creams, milk shakes and other treats.

A boat ride across to one of Cambodia’s enchanting islands is also a great option for an enjoyable day out - among the most popular islands to visit are Koh Rong, King Island and Koh Kong.

The Angkor Zipline is another thrilling adventure which children love - it’s not everywhere you get the chance to take to the heights and zipline your way across a forest canopy.

A ride on the bamboo train at Battenbang is another great idea or how about kayaking on the Mekong River where you can see the Irrawaddy dolphins jumping out of the water. Another great option for a family day out is a visit to the Cambodian Circus in Siem Reap.

Simply sampling some of the unusual culinary delights in local markets and beach bars can be a fun experience. Families will discover a whole new world of food and drink, unlike anything they’ve come across before. Some hotels even offer cooking classes so you can turn your hand to Khmer cuisine.
