OVERVIEW

Meet the hero rats that are helping to clear landmines in Cambodia. Apopo has trained the highly sensitive, almost-blind Gambian pouched rat to sniff explosives, which dramatically speeds up the detection of mines in the countryside. The visitor centre gives background on the work of Apopo, with a short video and the chance to meet the rats themselves.

Video Travel Inspiration

APOPO’s brand new Visitor Center in Siem Reap gives you the chance to discover the history of conflict in Cambodia, the impact of landmines on local communities, and the opportunity to meet and see the HeroRATs in action.

APOPO provides a low-tech, cost-efficient solution to pressing humanitarian challenges

APOPO's innovative scent detection technology has a massive potential to relieve human suffering and promote development when deployed in the fight against tuberculosis and landmines, as well as other applications under development.

GUIDED TOURS

Join us at our Visitor Center and experience the realities of humanitarian demining and how we train rats to save lives. You will learn about the mine clearance process from an expert, enjoy a series of videos showing our work and can read all about how Cambodia became one of the most mine affected countries in the world.
