Going Solo in the Kingdom of the Khmer

This 14 day Cambodia solo itinerary travels from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh, Koh Rong and Kampot, combining guided experiences with time to explore independently in a well-balanced route. It’s ideal for travellers looking to experience Cambodia confidently on their own.

Each stop brings a different rhythm, from Angkor and Phnom Penh’s cultural weight to the slower pace of Koh Rong Samleom and Kampot, where the journey becomes more about atmosphere, flexibility and time to move at your own pace.

The itinerary below is shown as an example route. Every journey we create is planned from scratch and can be shaped entirely around you — unless you like it exactly as it is.
