Tourism Indochina:Volunteer Tourism not only immerses the real travel Cambodia but also act as human

What is VolunTourism?

Volunteer Tourism also known as VolunTourism, in the broadest sense, Voluntourism represents voluntary service experiences that include travel to a destination in order to realize one's service intentions.

In a more refined and balanced approach, VolunTourism is the conscious, seemlessly-integrated combination of voluntary service to a destination with the traditional elements of travel and tourism - arts, culture, geography, history, and recreation - while in the destination.

Tourism Indochina:Volunteer Tourism not only immerses the real travel Cambodia but also act as human

Tourism Indochina:Date : 2008-07-18):

Volunteer tourism “makes use of holiday-makers who volunteer to fund and work on social or conservation projects around the world and aims to provide sustainable alternative travel that can assist in community development, scientific research or ecological restoration” (Wearing, 2004,p.217). Volunteer Tourism becomes increasingly important for those interested candidate in sustainable travel and humanity activities during the gap year and holiday.


Cambodia is now one of the must-visit destinations in South East Asia. With its pristine beaches, ancient temples and exotic jungle, it's easy to see why its turbulent history is now becoming an increasingly distant memory. This beautiful country is at peace, and Cambodians are focused on building a positive future. Visit Cambodia and you will be amazed by the juxtaposition of vibrant cities, achingly beautiful scenery and famous historical landmarks like Angkor Wat. However, Cambodia offers far more attractions than temples. Go elephant trekking in the East, try snorkeling and dolphin-spotting in the seas surrounding Sihanouk Ville, or take in the sunset with a bottle of Angkor beer at a local beach bar.


In harmony with the humanity activities and be apart of social welfare acceleration, you can take a golden opportunity to experience the real travel in Cambodia and explore the deep culture of the people through many types of special interest tourism activities such as ecotourism, cycling tourism, adventure tourism, agricultural tourism. Specifically, a type of volunteer tourism can be a good way to learn about Cambodia and communicate well with local residents. The Cambodia project is located in the town of Siem Reap near the UNESCO designated World Heritage Site of the Angkor temples (http://www.globalteer.org/projects/cambodia.html). If you are interested in a sustainable travel and community development, why DO NOT join a volunteer program that would immerse you!
