At Asia Senses Travel we’re adventurers at heart. Our journeys are all about discovering new places and cultures while creating unforgettable memories through physical activity and breathtaking scenery.
One of Cambodia’s loveliest and furthest provinces, Ratanakiri is located 636 km from Phnom Penh and border with Vietnam and Laos. Anyone looking to truly get off the beaten track and away from the Angkor Wat crowds should head to Cambodia’s north-east, which has only recently opened up to visitors. This province is a diverse region of outstanding natural beauty that provides a remote home for a mosaic of peoples – Jarai, Tompuon, Brau and Kreung minorities, plus Lao. Although roads remain poor in parts (we say 'roads' - they're actually more like dirt trails at times) and journeys can therefore be long, Ratanakiri is truly worth the effort, and is now easier to get to than ever before and the rewards are immense - this is a truly stunning corner of Asia.

Many use Banlung as base to explore the province of Ratanakiri. Accessible only by road, there are a series of day trips that can be made from this dusty provincial capital.

Best Time to Visit Ratanakiri
Best time to visit Ratanakiri is during the dry season, between November and March, when the temperature is from 20°C to 32°C. In the rainy season (late May to early October), the journey can drag you to spend the whole day for the trip due to rains, car getting stuck, unbelievably slippery road, etc. The dry season is the best time to plan the Cambodia tour packages to Ratanakiri.
