Overview

Angkor Homestay


Angkor homestay is special tourism product that enable visitors and tourists to experience, up close and personal, the local way of life in rural communities in various parts of Cambodia. Families warmly welcome guests into their homes and are delighted to be able to share and exchange knowledge and offer insight into Khmer culture, ways and traditions.

The program is new to Cambodia but it has been enthusiastically received by both travelers and villagers. Participation in a homestay program is generally a village initiative. Up to a dozen homes within each rural community offer to host both foreign and Khmer guests.

Visitors are free to decide how they wish to spend their time. They are able to relax or go into the fields to plant or harvest, herd the cows to pasture, ride an ox-card, or toss a net for fish. There are usually local attractions, a trade pursued only in that village, or unusual temples. Guided tours to these sites are organized a part from homestay program.

Homestays provide villagers with an opportunity to earn income that normally eludes them in the more sophisticated travel industry. It also enables them to meet outsiders they often see only from a distance and to experience a wider world through sharing their lives with others.



For the visitor, a homestay is often the highlight of a trip. There are few experiences to rival a tranquil night’s sleep. There is nothing quite like being nudged from sleep at dawn by the sounds of a village’s myriad inhabitants greeting the day.
