Embark on a journey across the globe to this beautiful Southeast Asian nation that boasts a tapestry of ancient grandeur and a warm culture. From bustling cities encircled by lush rice fields, you'll experience it all!

Fall in love with the Cambodian people as you serve them in a variety of capacities. Serve in an orphanage and school that sits on an old landfill improving infrastructure and teaching primary age children classes. Spend a day at the local children's hospital providing vision screenings and glasses fittings with our partner Charity Vision. Eat dinner with locals in their home and be moved by their stories of finding success after being orphaned. Build a library in a rural village and teach English to hundreds of impoverished children. Create a sustainable financial ecosystem for a rural village by putting in a local garden, chicken coop, and grasshopper farm. Provide clean water to rural families with our partner Water for Life and teach hygiene lessons to women.

Visit the famous Temples of Angkor, Ta Prohm, and Bayon Temples intricately carved and full of tales of a bygone empire. Find yourself forever changed as you learn the devastating history of the Cambodian genocide with a memorable visit to S-21 and the Killing fields, and even possibly meet survivors. Meet local HEROrats and our adopted rats who are trained to find live landmines saving countless lives each year.

Eat delicious traditional meals and grow your tastebuds (and your courage) to the likes of crickets, water bugs, tarantulas, and rat! Walk local markets by day and shop in the bustling Phnom Pehn night scene by night.

Cambodia has it all with unmatched humanitarian efforts, a beautiful culture of kindness, history, and adventure.

All accommodations are in 3-4 star facilities that have been vetted by our in-country partners and ROAM Humanitarian to ensure they are clean and safe for our participants.
