When considering a family holiday destination, Cambodia may not immediately come to mind. The country is primarily associated with the renowned temples of Angkor, which, as parents know, may not excite children. However, there are two essential factors that address this concern. Firstly, these temples are far from ordinary; they are captivating structures where snakes dangle, monkeys climb, and enormous faces emerge from the jungle, reminiscent of an Indiana Jones adventure. They are a complete contrast to the lifeless ruins that your parents may have dragged you to during your own childhood.

Secondly, and perhaps more importantly, Cambodia offers much more than just temples. The city of Siem Reap, in close proximity, presents an array of excellent-value family-friendly resorts. Most of these accommodations boast the all-important swimming pool, perfect for enjoyable moments during downtime. For those seeking active pursuits, there are rope courses, horse riding, and cycling. Those inclined toward culture can try their hand at rice planting, traditional thatching, or Khmer cooking classes. Additionally, there are numerous child-friendly dining options and even a quirky modern Cambodian circus that make Siem Reap an ideal destination for Cambodia family holidays.
Family relax in Koh Rong, Cambodia
Beyond Siem Reap, Cambodia offers plenty of other fantastic family-oriented locations. Surprisingly, the country has a coastline tucked between the popular beach destinations of Thailand and Vietnam, comprising a relatively undeveloped collection of delightful islands. Tranquil resorts with safe, warm, and shallow seas await, while Koh Rong provides the perfect setting for a traditional wind-down towards the end of your holiday.
Before reaching the beach, why not embark on a boat ride through the stilt villages and floating markets of Tonlé Sap or take a trip across the lake to Battambang? The latter is a charming colonial town where you can explore the surrounding countryside by bicycle or experience the exhilarating Bamboo Train ride, known for its hair-raising thrills.
Not far from the capital city, Phnom Penh lies the Phnom Tamao Wildlife Rescue Centre—an absolute delight for kids. Visitors can actively participate in the daily routines of rescued sun bears and other rare wildlife, guaranteeing an experience that will eliminate any potential complaints or groans.
