Cambodia Adventure Tours (CAT)

Discover Beyond. Experience the Real Cambodia.

Who We Are

Cambodia is a country of incredible landscapes, hidden trails, rich biodiversity, ancient traditions, local beliefs, and fascinating cultures. Beyond its famous temples and popular tourist destinations lies another Cambodia waiting to be discovered.

At Cambodia Adventure Tours (CAT), we are passionate about taking travellers beyond the ordinary and introducing them to the wild, authentic, and adventurous side of our country.

We specialise in outdoor adventures and exploration, offering experiences such as off-road dirt-bike riding, 4×4 expeditions, trekking, kayaking, camping, birdwatching, cycling, and other unique nature-based activities. From exploring remote countryside trails and discovering hidden natural landscapes to connecting with local communities and experiencing their traditions, we invite travellers to see Cambodia from a different perspective.

Discovering and Preserving Local Heritage

We believe some of Cambodia’s greatest treasures are its lesser-known cultures, traditions, beliefs, stories, and local ways of life.

We want to help revive, preserve, and share these valuable cultural elements by transforming them into authentic and meaningful experiences for travellers. By working closely with local communities, we aim to create opportunities for local people to share their knowledge, traditions, customs, and stories while ensuring they are respected, involved, and benefit directly from tourism.

We believe that culture should not simply be something visitors observe, but something they can understand, appreciate, and connect with through meaningful local experiences.

Tourism That Makes a Difference

Our vision goes beyond creating memorable travel experiences. We believe tourism should create lasting value for both travellers and the destinations they visit.

By encouraging visitors to explore more destinations and stay longer in Cambodia, we aim to create more employment opportunities, support local businesses and communities, generate additional income for local families, and contribute to the development of sustainable tourism throughout the country.

We want to help distribute tourism opportunities beyond the major destinations, allowing more communities across Cambodia to participate in and benefit from the growing tourism industry.

Our Future Vision – Connecting Cambodia to the World

Our long-term ambition is to develop Cambodia Adventure Tours into a leading Cambodia-based online tour operator and travel marketplace, connecting international travellers directly with local tourism providers from every corner of the country.

We believe Cambodia’s tourism industry should create more value for the people and businesses who make it special. Rather than relying heavily on international booking platforms and intermediaries, we want to build a strong local network where Cambodian tour operators, independent guides, community-based tourism groups, accommodation providers, and small businesses can showcase and sell their own services and experiences to travellers worldwide.

Through this platform, local suppliers will have the opportunity to upload their products, manage their offerings, reach international customers, and grow their businesses.

By creating more direct connections between travellers and local suppliers, we aim to offer better and more competitive prices to visitors while allowing Cambodian businesses to retain a greater share of the revenue generated by tourism.

Instead of sending a significant portion of booking commissions overseas, we want more tourism income to circulate within Cambodia, supporting local businesses, creating jobs, strengthening communities, and contributing to the country’s economy.

Our ambition is to build more than just another online booking website. We want to create a trusted Cambodian travel platform that brings together the country’s hidden destinations, authentic experiences, local knowledge, and independent tourism providers — making them accessible to travellers around the world.

Our Mission

To showcase Cambodia’s natural beauty, adventurous spirit, and rich cultural diversity while creating meaningful travel experiences, empowering local communities, supporting Cambodian businesses, and contributing to a more sustainable tourism future.

We believe every corner of Cambodia has something special to offer. Our ambition is to bring those hidden treasures to the world, empower local communities, and make tourism opportunities accessible to more Cambodian people.

Better experiences for travellers. Better opportunities for local people. More tourism value staying in Cambodia.

Lovely Kayaking tour We had a lovely tour of the floating village and mangroves on the lake. The guide was excellent and everything was well organised. Perhaps the kayaking could be longer (45 min) and wish the operator offered a loner tour possibly with an overnight stay. Yet overall it was an excellent experience. I recommend it highly .

What an experience! What an amazing tour ! Our guide was fantastic - we were a group of 6 and had a rider for each of us - we went to a traditional house, street markets that were nowhere near the tourist areas ( just for locals) and a bar /restaurant where the locals listen to live music We tried all different kinds of food and drinks in all 3 locations! Highly recommended

Great experience. We were very fortunate to book this experience very last minute and Zil and his team put a great day together for us. We were able to ride an Oxcart thru the village, take a walk near cooking space and buy some beautiful hand made baskets. Then we began the class and everything was very easy to follow along and prepared by the team so perfectly. Zil was such a nice young man and so easy to talk with. I will use his team again on my next visit.

Half day tour by Motorbike around Siem Ream We had a half day Tour by Motorbike to the market in Siem Reap and the surrounding Farmers. It was very interesting, and our guide showed us all the famous herbs and what local people eat. We had a lot of fun touring around on the bikes. even if we didn’t drive ourselves. We can warmly recommend this compagnie. Extremely friendly people.

A great Street food tour by motorbike. 👍😀 It was a very great tour. It was interesting to see the lokal life when we drove around in the small streets during the evening. We tasted a lot og lokal food at the local marked and in restaurants. Our tourguide Khnom told a lot about life in Cambodia, it was interesting to be together with him. And he and Ratana were good drivers, so we felt safe and could enjoy the trip. We highly recomend this tour.

Do this, great night out. Fantastic night seeing non touristy side of Siem Reap and eating what the locals eat. Couldn't manage the frog, squirel, cow innards or pigs brain soup. Beef, chive balls and pancakes were fantastic. Looking for a Cambodian restaurant when we get home.

Amazing trek away from the crowds! My friend and I decided to do the trek with Cambodia Adventure Tours to see the sights around Phnom Kulen national park, rather than jump from site to site in a tour bus, and could not be happier! The experience was incredible! We were spoiled with untouched beauty to admire and no other tourists, including a temple in the side of the mountain with a fresh spring water pool, lunch in a private camp site by the river, a local ranger guiding us through the deep jungle, and access to the Kulen waterfalls when the rest of the crowds had subsided. Our guide Sam was incredible! Very accommodating, knowledgeable and funny! I would recommend this to anyone wanting to really experience the area.

Trekking through Cambodia's National Forrest (Mt Kulen) 1 day trek through the national park Phnom (Mount) Kulen. It's an hours drive away from Siem Reap. I rate the trek as not difficult as children as young as 6 yrs could manage it. The trail has spectacular views. I felt safe walking through forest that (I was told) in former years was inhabited by elephants and tigers. Take your bathers as the walk down to the base of the waterfall is well worth it.

True Adventure in the home of Angkor I am delighted to have been lucky enough to experience real adventure in the home of Angkor on Phnom Kueln (Lychee Mountain) with Cambodia Adventure Tours. Their one day trek takes you along genuine off the beaten tracks to areas of the mountain not seen by regular tourists. Not only is the tour what I deem to be a genuine adventure, but it's informative too with the local guide and owner, Mr. Samban explaining about the history behind the mountain and its Hindu past, local life and flora and fauna of the mountain too. It's a full day so make sure you take proper foot wear, sunscreen, water, swimsuit and a decent backpack for your camera and other items.
