Luxury Cardamom Mountains & Shinta Mani Wild Tours

A Wilderness Canvas of Conservation and Comfort

Deep within the wild heart of Cambodia’s Cardamom Mountains lies an extraordinary destination: Shinta Mani Wild - a luxury tented sanctuary built entirely without felling trees, merging high-end design with active conservation. Here, 800 pristine acres host a boutique camp of canvas-and-timber villas perched along a roaring river, framed by ancient rainforest and cascading falls. Each tent is themed - from “Botanist” to “National Geographic” - its doors folding away to reveal forest trails and rushing waters.

Come dawn, zipline into camp, then walk amid mist-lit foliage as rangers mounted with trackers discuss forest protection. Paddle at midday through soft emerald pools, perhaps spotting macaques or kingfishers, before joining a ranger patrol to dismantle snares threatening elephants. Lunch is riverside - Khmer cuisine prepared with foraged herbs under flowering trees. Evenings bring cocktails overlooking the 'Big Raging Sister' waterfall, spa wraps beside the river, and the gentle roar of nature from your plush tent.

At Shinta Mani Wild, wilderness isn’t tamed - it’s honoured. Each stay supports habitat protection, wildlife rescue, and village education programmes. This is not just luxury in isolation, but unity with land and life. Here, the rich pulse of unaffected jungle meets the comfort of design-led retreats - offering a rare balance of thrill, reflection, and impact.
