    • Kampong Cham, Cambodia
    Transfer via motorcoach from Siem Reap to the AmaDara in Kampong Cham for your seven-night cruise. Your afternoon excursion takes you to the Twin Mountains, known as Phnom Pros and Phnom Srei (male and female mountains). In the annals of Khmer legend, the twin mountains were formed as the result of a competition between the men and women of an ancient Cambodian kingdom to resolve which gender would be responsible for wedding proposals. As the story goes, the women lit a fire at night, which made the men believe the sun was rising. As a result, the men stopped working and the women won the competition. Thus, men still need to ask the women's parents for permission and Phnom Srei is higher than Phnom Pros. Later, join fellow guests for an evening Welcome Dinner. (L,D); Note: All cruise only guests should meet at the Sofitel Angkor hotel in Siem Reap at 8 am on embarkation day to join the transfer to the ship in Kampong Cham. It's recommended that you fly into Siem Reap at least one day prior to embarkation; please inquire about important arrival arrangements prior to your cruise. ...
