Cambodia Cruises
Located in Angkor Archaeological Park, the Angkor buildings are a quite simply stunning collection of Hindu and Buddhist temples which were built in the 12th century and are seen as architectural masterpieces. Spread over 400 acres, it's said to be the largest religious monument in the world. The main temple - Angkor Wat, blends symbolism and symmetry perfectly, where each part of the building is covered with intricate carvings. [ReadMoreMob]
The history of Cambodia has given the country a rich cultural tapestry, stemming from the beauty of Angkor Wat, and the events which happened during the Khmer Rouge period. However, there are also beautiful beaches and natural attractions, waiting to be discovered on a Fred. Olsen cruise to Cambodia, such as the coastal town of Sihanoukville.

Frequently asked questions about Cambodia
Why should I cruise to Cambodia?
Cambodia combines heritage, riverside towns and coastal communities. Cruising allows you to explore ports with ease, arriving close to local culture and history.
Sailing with Fred. Olsen gives time to absorb the atmosphere ashore and enjoy reflective moments on deck.
When is the best time to cruise to Cambodia?
Cambodia is most comfortable from late autumn through to early spring. These months bring drier, milder conditions, making it easier to explore ports, coastal towns, and riverside settlements at a relaxed pace.
What can I see and do on a Cambodia cruise?
A Cambodia cruise brings you close to island beaches, French‑era charm and Khmer culture. You can:
- Relax on Otres Beach in Sihanoukville, known for its long stretch of sand and calm, tropical setting.
- Walk Kampot’s riverside promenade (reached from Sihanoukville), with its French‑era architecture and laid‑back atmosphere.
- Visit Wat Leu Temple overlooking Sihanoukville for views and an introduction to local Khmer traditions.
Between destinations, you’ll enjoy steady scenic sailings as Cambodia’s coastline, islands and lush landscapes come into view from the ship.
How long are Cambodia cruises and what itineraries are available?
Cambodia is featured as part of world cruise itineraries with Fred. Olsen, rather than as a standalone sailing from the UK. These extended journeys include selected calls such as Sihanoukville, experienced within the wider rhythm of an unhurried world voyage.
What should I pack and what should I know before cruising to Cambodia?
Cambodia cruises call for lightweight clothing, comfortable shoes for exploring harbours and cultural sites, and sun protection. A light jacket is useful for cooler evenings, and smart-casual attire is suitable for evenings onboard.
Are Cambodia cruises suitable for first-time cruisers/couples/solo travellers?
Cambodia cruises are ideal for first-time cruisers, offering gentle sailing and fascinating cultural harbours to explore. Couples will enjoy shared visits to ancient temples and scenic towns, while solo travellers will feel at ease aboard Fred.’s smaller, welcoming ships.
