• Siem Reap - Begin your journey with a convenient hotel pick-up, followed by a relaxing afternoon Tuk Tuk ride led by our female guide to explore the charming rural areas surrounding Siem Reap. The tour kicks off with a visit to a local market, offering insights into its vital role in daily life, its origins, and the cultivation methods of local produce. Discover how supermarkets have influenced local customs and the culture of maintaining a healthy diet.

• Wat Athwear Road - Explore a local basket store to observe the extensive use of wood, rotting wine, and bamboo in crafting everyday tools, religious items, décor, and cooking supplies. The variety of these items varies based on their local origins. This visit also provides background on the small spiritual houses seen at the entrance of every local home.

• Wat Po Banteaychey - Following the basket store visit, proceed to the countryside for a rice wine distillation experience. Visit a local rice farm where rice is cultivated and transformed into rice wine. Learn about the sustainable use of resources: the farm’s rice is used for wine production, and the leftover rice post-fermentation feeds the pigs. This stop offers a deep dive into Cambodian culture and customs, sharing stories about raising cows and buffalos on the farm. Enjoy local snacks and sample the freshly distilled rice wine.

• Lotus Silk Farm - Next, visit the Lotus Farm, a highlight of today’s tour. Discover the lotus plant’s incredible transformation into an eco-friendly textile and its significance as a symbol of Buddhist teachings in Cambodia. Your visit supports a social enterprise that provides employment for local women and promotes sustainable energy use. Afterward, savor delicious local cake and freshly brewed lotus tea in the tea lounge on the top floor, while taking in the 360-degree view of the surrounding landscape and reflecting on the spiritual insights gained.

• Phnom Krom - Conclude the half-day tour with a serene sunset experience on a traditional mat near the rice fields. Relish the fresh and healthy countryside cuisine, and enjoy delectable lotus dishes from a nearby local restaurant.
