Embark on an exhilarating journey with ACTIVETRAVEL ASIA's unique adventure tour that mirrors the suspense and excitement of a James Bond film. Set in the dense jungles near the majestic Angkor Wat in Cambodia, participants engage in a thrilling mission to rescue a captured British journalist, all while uncovering hidden treasures and navigating treacherous terrain.
ACTIVETRAVEL ASIA has crafted an extraordinary experience that transports thrill-seekers into a cinematic escapade reminiscent of a James Bond adventure. This meticulously designed tour combines elements of action, suspense, and exploration, set against the backdrop of Cambodia's lush jungles and ancient ruins.
Participants in this adventure are cast as commandos on a daring mission to rescue a British journalist held captive by remnants of the Khmer Rouge. The journalist, on a quest to uncover a legendary treasure believed to possess the power to alter the future, is taken hostage in the depths of the Cambodian jungle near Phnom Kulen Mountain, approximately 70 kilometers from Siem Reap.
The journey begins with a helicopter flight from Bangkok, Thailand, landing the team of commandos 9 kilometers from the ancient temple ruins where the journalist is imprisoned. The group must then navigate through the dense jungle, cross streams, and abseil down large rocks under the cover of darkness to reach their destination.
Upon arrival, the team sets up camp in hammocks under a large tree, a kilometer away from the ruins. Utilizing night vision equipment, they scout the area and devise a plan of attack. At dawn, as the Khmer Rouge soldiers gather for breakfast, the commandos strike, swiftly rescuing the hostage and retreating back into the jungle.
With the journalist freed, the group presses on to locate the hidden treasure. By late afternoon, they successfully uncover the treasure and set up camp for a second night in the wilderness.
The following day, the team navigates their way back to Siem Reap, marking the completion of their mission. This adventure, however, is not a Hollywood script but a real-life tour organized by ACTIVETRAVEL ASIA for a UK-based security service firm. The tour was a resounding success, providing participants with an extreme and enjoyable experience.
After the adrenaline-fueled mission, the participants unwind with a sightseeing tour of the iconic Angkor Wat, indulge in fine dining at the luxurious Grand D'Angkor Hotel, and explore the vibrant nightlife of Siem Reap.
This tour represents the first of its kind in Cambodia, and ACTIVETRAVEL ASIA plans to promote similar adventure tours in 2021. The company has captured behind-the-scenes footage and photographs of the tour, with a complete video version to be released soon.
