3D/2N Kampong Thom Discovery: Sambor Prei Kuk UNESCO & Phnom Santuk 24/04/2026

Kampong Thom sits squarely at the centre of Cambodia — geographically and historically. For travelers who want something beyond the Siem Reap circuit, this 3 days / 2 nights private program delivers pre-Angkorian UNESCO heritage, a mountain-top Buddhist temple, and a rural countryside that remains almost entirely untouched by mass tourism.

Why this package works for Holidar

• UNESCO-anchored selling point: Sambor Prei Kuk is Cambodia's only recognized pre-Angkorian World Heritage site.
• High-conversion differentiation: most travelers have never heard of Kampong Thom, which makes the discovery narrative compelling for cultural and slow-travel audiences.
• Flexible pricing ladder: three tiers (Budget USD 215 / Mid-range USD 315 / Luxury USD 525 per person, twin share) let sales teams match any client budget.
• Clean extension logic: pairs naturally with Phnom Penh or Siem Reap as a 1–2 night add-on to longer Cambodia itineraries.

Package summary and pricing

• KT-3-B – Budget: USD 215 per person (range USD 180–250). Twin share, private AC transport, English guide, daily breakfast, local lunches, entrance fees.
