Explore this huge and beautiful temple, seeing its detailed carvings. Afterward, go into the ancient walled city of Angkor Thom through its South Gate. Discover the mysterious Bayon Temple, known for its many smiling faces, along with the old Royal Palace area, the grand Terrace of the Elephants, and the Terrace of the Leper King. You’ll also visit Baphuon Temple, a big temple-mountain. The afternoon brings you to Ta Prohm Temple, famous as the ‘Jungle Temple’ because of its giant tree roots wrapped around old stone ruins – you might know it from ‘Tomb Raider’. After a full day exploring these Angkor temples, we will take you back to your hotel.
  • Day 2: Outer Angkor Temples & Panoramic Sunset Day two explores more unique Angkor temples beyond the main complex. Visit the beautiful Pre Rup Temple, then move on to the special Banteay Srei Temple, famous for its delicate pink stone carvings and distinct style. You’ll continue to explore other important temples like East Mebon Temple, Ta Som Temple, Neak Pean Temple, and the large Preah Khan Temple. We’ll stop for lunch at a local restaurant near the temples. To end your Angkor tour, enjoy a breathtaking sunset view from Bakheng Mountain, giving you wide views of the whole Angkor complex before we bring you back to your hotel.
  • Day 3: Sacred Kulen Mountain & Kompong Phluk Village Your third day takes you to Phnom Kulen National Park, a sacred mountain and a beautiful escape about a 1.5-hour drive (50km) from Siem Reap. Explore its spiritual wonders, including the unique River of 1000 Lingas with ancient carvings on the riverbed, and take a refreshing dip in the stunning Kulen Waterfall. At the top, see the revered Reclining Buddha statue. After a picnic lunch in nature, we head back towards Siem Reap, then drive to Kompong Phluk Village, a unique floating village (about 31km, 1 hour drive). On the way, we’ll stop at a local market. At Kompong Phluk, explore by boat, seeing its stilt houses and learning about life on Tonle Sap Lake. (Please note: Water levels change with seasons, affecting village views.
