1.Tuk-Tuk, Bamboo Train, Killing/Bat Caves, Sunset

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 1,436 reviews · 5 - 12 hours · from $9Our pick

Spend about seven hours with an English-speaking guide such as Samol, Somol, or David, moving by tuk-tuk through Battambang’s markets, villages, farms, and rice fields. Ride the original bamboo train, visit Phnom Sampov and its Killing Cave, taste local food, and watch thousands of bats leave the cave at sunset.

“Samol is the little tour guide with a big personality. The tour was fun, informative and interesting. Samol is a proud Cambodian who is happy to share his family history. Thank you for helping us learn about your history and culture. The sight of the natural phenomenon of the bats was a great ending to the day. Highly recommended!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 182 reviews · 7 hours

Spend seven hours with a local English-speaking guide such as David, Kim, Dan, or Rich. Ride Battambang’s original bamboo train, cross a suspension bridge, sample local food, learn about Khmer Rouge history at the Killing Cave, and watch bats stream from Phnom Sampov at dusk.

“We had a great day with our guide David. He made sure we had the best experience. We had plenty of stops along the way being supplied with water and fruits, singing and dad jokes. The train was fun, the killing cave saddening and the bat cave amazing. Would definitely recommend.”
