Meet a guide at your hotel in Siem Reap, then begin the drive to Phnom Kulen in a climate-controlled vehicle, passing a series of local communities and lush forest.

The first stop of the day is a reclining Buddha image cut from a huge sandstone boulder in a hilltop temple that draws pilgrims from around Cambodia. From there, continue to the River of a Thousand Lingas, a riverbed that’s carved with images of phalluses and Hindu gods. 

Another sacred site is Phnom Kulen Waterfalls, where you can cool off by swimming in the pool at the base of the falls. Throughout the day, take advantage of your time with a private guide to learn about the sites’ historic and cultural significance, enjoying the flexibility to explore each destination at your own pace.

Your tour ends with drop-off back at your hotel.

Great family day out.

This day trip was worth getting out of town to see something different! The waterfall was pretty cool to swim in and was a welcome cool-down opportunity! The reclining Buddha was also worth seeing and it was quite nice to see a bit of the local religious culture. Pee (not sure of the spelling!) was great and very knowledgeable and good with the kids. The car was nice and clean and had plenty of cold water available in an ice box! You so need to take some cash though, as lunch isn’t included and if you want to buy a few bits and donate at the temple. Nowhere on the way to get cash out if you don’t have any. Overall, definitely worth a trip out for the day and good for kids!

Highly recommend the Kulen Mountain & 1000 lingas tour!

We had a great time with our tour guide Nak today! We completed the Kulen Mountain & the 1000 lingas tour. Nak and his driver (James Bond 009) were very friendly, and Nak was very generous with his knowledge of Cambodian history and the different sites. The locations were beautiful and it was a very informative experience. Would highly recommend!

National Park and Waterfalls near Siem Reap

Our guide was fantastic. He arrived on time and greeted us at the hotel reception. The guide was dressed professionally, spoke excellent English and was kind and polite. Our guide was extremely informative and knowledgeable about the National Park and answered all of our questions. There was nothing that he did not know about the Park or waterfalls. Our guide made sure we had a great experience and even took time to take wonderful pictures. We are very happy and would highly recommend him for other travelers.

Great tour!

This tour is worth it! The tour guide, Nak, was very friendly and patient. The driver was safe. They were on time and did not rush through. Great drive outside Siem Reap to the Kulan Mountain. The tour does have stairs to access the reclining Buddha and waterfall. Highly recommend!

Excellent end to our time here

Good value for the money. Nak, our guide, was quite knowledgeable, and his grasp of English was helpful too. Visited some authentic vendors (at our request), rather than the generic ones along the route.
