There are large areas of Cambodia which are often completely overlooked by travellers and tourists alike. The majority of people will drive through these regions to get to their next destination. However more often than not in countries like Cambodia the journey can often be the destination. If you think about it, some of our most memorable moments in travel come when you least expect it and often on the road somewhere unexpected. In years to come you will remember these small things over the sumptuous dinner you had at the end of the day in the fantastic hotel you were staying in.

Family Holiday’s in Cambodia

Going on a holiday with young children is always a point of discussion, especially if that holiday is to a developing country like Cambodia. I want to reassure you that the rewards gained by your children for the experience of such a trip will far outweigh your initial trepidation’s and fears. Being based in Cambodia with a very inquisitive 5 year old daughter I can ascertain to the fact that each day is an adventure for her and her friends. We have ventured out on multiple trips around the country and indeed our neighbouring countries (Pre-Covid of course), and always found it to be far easier than expected.

We interviewed several Khmer tourism professionals to understand more about how this halt to tourism has affected their lives.

Angkor Wat Without Tourists

Angkor Wat Without Tourists

The year 2020 has certainly been a year of surprises, not in the least with the onset of Covid19 and the subsequent global lockdown. As a consequence the travel industry has ultimately been devastated, with many companies struggling to survive during these extraordinarily lean times. Nowhere has this been felt more than in the developing world where the government safety nets and subsidies are simply not available to regular SME’s and individuals as they have been in some of the developed western nations. I would like to give an idea of what it has been like living in Cambodia during these tough times.
