Teen Tours in Cambodia


Rustic Pathways has been bringing students to Cambodia for over five years, and we have developed a team of full-time local staff who are waiting to share their home with you. One of the poorest and most underdeveloped countries in the region, Cambodia is finally waking up from its dismal past, and the smiling youth here have high hopes for a brighter fure.

Our operations in Cambodia are designed to bring year-round love, care, and support to the Cambodian children who need it most. From the floating villages on the Tonle Sap, to the smiling faces of our little friends the Orphanage Project, to the majestic ruins of Angkor Wat, Cambodia is one of the world’s most intriguing destinations.

a parade of pick-up trucks, oxen and bicycles
ramble down bumpy trails to bustling village markets
behind intricately woven walls of stilted river homes

families share company and home-cooked meals
curious children stare shyly before breaking into laughter
waving as they duck in and out of view
while you float gently past

a vibrant and determined nation
building a brighter future on a turbulent history
waking from years of isolation
welcome to unseen southeast Asia

You Really Can Make a Difference!
We are proud to announce our continued partnership with Children Poor Communities Development. This dedicated local NGO provides a home to about 53 children who range in age from 7 to 17 years old. Most of these children have lost their parents to disease or other tragic events, and all are in need of a little positive energy in their lives. Please feel free to contact us at cambodia@rusticpathways.com for more information or ways in which you can help us bring happiness back into the lives of children who had everything taken away.
