A local english speaking agency that is located in Siem Reap since 1998, Terre Cambodge specialises in custom made trips and tours to Cambodia putting adventure and exchange with the locals at the heart of our enterprise. For us, travelling means responsible and sustainable tourism, especially with our local social engagements, notably by supporting the ADF Kulen project. It is also reflected in our staff wage policy, either in the office or in the field.
We have been designing customized adventure-discovery tours for the past 15 years, encompassing hikes, treks or mountain bikes rides. Not only is the majestic Angkor Wat site to be explored while biking, but also the beautiful countryside and the smiling people of Cambodia, remote temples, remote regions such as Mondolkiri to the east and the Cardamom Mountain Range to the west or Koh Ker, the ancient capital of the Khmer kings. We focus on sustainable tourism, respect for the environment, meeting and exchanging with Cambodians (overnight in homestays, etc.) and tour details (quality of the guide, overnight stays in charming places, lesser-known sites, camping in the jungle, evenings a traditional pagoda, etc.); all of this at a slower pace, closer to the people. Another area of our expertise is the Greatest Lake in Cambodia, the Tonle Sap, with homestays in floating houses and cruises up rivers to discover lakeside life. Discover our bird-watching tours, hikes, elephant-treks, mountain bike rides, and canoe in the inundated forest of the Tonle Sap, explore the sacred mountain of Phnom Kulen, cruise to discover the Mekong and share Khmer culture through interaction with local people. Our proficient guides will share with you our love of traveling and our experience in this country, one full of surprises.
Terre Cambodge is delighted to offer exciting and professional tours throughout Cambodia. Our international team originates from different continents and horizons. What brings us together is the love of this fascinating country, much of which is yet to be explored.
Every time I travel to Cambodia, I am struck by the warmth of the locals and their culture. I rapidly fell under the spell of the country. I worked for several NGOs and travelled to many provinces, which led me to establish Terre Cambodge, a local agency, so that travellers may explore Cambodia differently.
