Option 4:        A Green Day in Angkor

With climate change and other environmental issues looming large, Asian Trails points the way and seeks to limit the travel’s impact on the environment. To reduce carbon emission and to help to turn travel green we encourage you to leave your petrol-driven vehicle behind for just one day and visit the AngkorArchaeologicalPark with a battery car instead. These new electric cars are not dependent on gasoline and significantly reduce the amount of noise and CO2 released into the atmosphere.  You will be picked up and dropped off again at your hotel. Make your contribution to environmental protection and book a Green Day in Angkor. Leave footprints not waste!
