We recommend!

If you feel rather cooling down we invite you to come for a skiing holiday of your lifetime to some of the biggest ski resorts in France. Find more on our dedicated websites www.skiinfrance.co.za or www.cksunatur.eu

Stay on a rice farm and see the different rice growing stages.

Do you feel you can experince something special? Come to our farm, sleep in hammock half way between Angkor Thom and Banteay Srei and see how the rice is grown. Send us an email to talk about the details.

 

Now it is the unique time to visit Angkor Temples!!!

Ideal time to visit the temples of Angkor. The photos are from yesterday, around 11am. Instead of large crowds and a 15-minute window to tour Angkor Wat, there were barely a dozen of us in the entire area. If you prefer tranquility and want to soak up the genius loci and magical atmosphere, this is the time to come! Let us know today and you can be here next week! We'll arrange a turnkey holiday, or just the parts you're interested in - a tour of the temples and floating villages on bicycles, a jungle trek, a cooking class, and much more.

 

The project of NGO Eyes Wide Open (www.ocidokoran.cz) goes well even in these troubled times and supports the Primary school CBE (Christine) Bush School (https://bushschoolcambodia.com) close to our farm. Already 22 trees are planted and growing. You can watch the video.A project supporting a school is fully in line with our mission (and hearts).
 
 
What’s the idea? It is pretty simple – you buy a tree, plant it which will secure funds for children education while helping the nature at the same time.
The price is $100 for one sapling planted. Of these funds $10 will be used for the purchase and planting. The remaining $90 is paid to the School. Zero handling costs.

Dear friends, have a look at the beautiful photos of Cambodian Angkor temples and nature. Perhaps you have already visited Cambodia, maybe it is on your bucket-list for the good times ahead of us or you will visit Cambodia the virtual way. In any case this 2021 calendar will take you through the country for 12 months of 2021. I will really appreciate you buying one. The artistic quality of the photos is exceptionally high as is the HQ digital print out. But more importantly, your purchase will help a very special person, living in Cambodia for 14 years already, earning his modest living as a photographer and Angkor Temples connoisseur. As you may have guessed he has no income at all since mid-March due to Covid measures. He was part of the Czech anti-communist dissent and spent three years in the communist jails, paving our road to freedom and democracy.

The price of the calendar is $29 or €25 plus postage. You can order by This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or at Ota's web site (link above) and you will be informed about delivery time – expecting mid-September. The entire amount (after deducting the cost of printing) goes to Ota Veverka without any transaction costs. It is also a good investment – both Ota Veverka and Eco-Trails Asia will offer the buyers/donors 5% discount on their prices for the trip to SE Asia. Will you help, too? 🙏
 
P.S. In case of purchasing higher number of calendars (e.g. for a company) a discount can be individually arranged and the name and/or logo of the company can be added. It will make a memorable present for the clients.

Not only Cambodia is currently ‚tourist-free‘ and our project of Agro-Tourism didn’t get a chance to even start. At this point we were approached by Petra with a fantastic idea – Trees for Christine – which is already up and going.

Her NGO Eyes Wide Open (www.ocidokoran.cz) supports a Primary school CBE (Christine) Bush School (https://bushschoolcambodia.com) close to our farm. A project supporting a school is fully in line with our mission (and hearts).

What’s the idea? It is pretty simple – you buy a tree, plant it which will secure funds for children education while helping the nature at the same time.

Every Tree that is planted will help toward creating a new Forest, improve the local Ecosystem and most importantly will support the children with a better school based education

The price is $100 for one sapling planted. Of these funds $10 will be used for the purchase and planting. The remaining $90 is paid to the School. Zero handling costs.

You can currently support the project remotely/offsite but in future when travelling re-opens also personally. You will receive its GPS co-ordinates and a photo of “your very own tree” with your name tag. At a later date you will be most welcome to come and greet your tree personally, or plant one by yourself. Maybe spend a night in a hammock or in an authentic Khmer house and visit the school as well. The first trees are already growing and making us happy!

Greetings to all our friends and fans of Cambodia and Southeast Asia in general!

It appears that the travel options are opening again, at last. It is a good time to start thinking about your next winter destinations to get away from cold, dark and blizzards 🛫. It just the right moment to pick some great deals which are appearing now. Let us know what is your ideal vacation: sandy beaches with warm sea 🏖, jungle treks, homestays, cycling by the ancient temples and among rice fields 🚴‍♀️ or maybe learn how to cook authentic Khmer dishes 🍜? Something else? Let’s plan it together to your full satisfaction! ☀️

Bayon Temple, the fabulous masterpiece of Angkor Thom, the capital of Angkor Empire will be undergoing extensive restoration beginning on January 1, 2020.

This late 12th century temple will undergo extensive restauration. There is no fixed date for re-opening but the works take up to several years. You should not postpone your visit to the magnificent Angkor Temples!


You can enjoy the rare experience of cooking your own meal on an open fire which you set all by yourself in the middle of the Cambodian jungle. You will be accompanied by our experienced guide – cook and a National Park ranger. You can book a single day trip from Siem Reap or a multiple day trek (2 days/1 night or 3 days/2 nights) and learn how to cook a local curry (or another dish) one of the evenings. It will taste much better than in the city restaurant, for sure. Look at the photos and book your Jungle Cooking Class now!

Volunteers in Cambodia needed!

We are setting up an orchard, fruit & vegetable garden and a homestay – Eco-Trails Orchard Retreat. Be the first to experience it! We can offer accommodation in new, clean, comfortable hammocks. Toilet, shower and a pond to swim in is also available. Modest but healthy, organic breakfast is also part of the package. Kitchen is available for your own cooking. We have two well maintained mountain bikes which you can use for trips around. Your help will be appreciated in the morning. You will be free to explore the surroundings from 1 a.m. onwards.

In the evenings we offer free English lessons to the local village children. You will be most welcome to participate in the classes as well. Located on Road 67, opposite Bantey Srei Butterfly Center, just 11km from Bantey Srei Temple, 18km form Angkor Thom, Bayon, Angkor Wat and other temples and 25km from Siem Reap downtown. A pair of hands – or more pairs 🙂 would be more than welcome. Have a look at the recent photos here. Ask us about more detail!

Looking forward to having you with us smiley
