Our first morning on The Jahan commenced early with tai chi on deck as we cruised along the Mekong River. After a hearty breakfast, we disembarked and, led by our Cambodian guides, wandered through the remote village of Angkor Ban.

Our walk through this village was truly fascinating. We saw locals going about their day-to-day life and managed a brief visit into one of the wooden homes.

Back on board, we participated in a Buddhist monk blessing in the lounge, learning all about the culture and traditions of Theravada Buddhism.

In the afternoon, we explored Prek Bangkong by tuk-tuk and visited a traditional silk farm and the residence of the architect for the Cambodian royal family.
