What to expect
Day 1: Temples of Angkor with Sunrise
Angkor Wat
3h · Admission ticket not included
We begin with a pre-dawn departure (5.00 am depending on the time of year) from your hotel for sunrise outside Angkor Wat. Enter the great temple in darkness from the little-visited eastern side, and creep along hoary cloistered corridors past the longest stretch of bas-relief carvings in the world.
Soak up the atmosphere of dawn at Angkor Wat, from the edge of one of the ancient library pools. We then explore the interior of the great temple, spending a thorough two hours discovering the corridors, central chambers and upper terraces of this truly great temple. Your expert local guide will decipher the myriad of stories behind the bas-relief carvings, and give you an insight into life during the height of the Khmer empire. We end our tour at Angkor with breakfast outside the temple (take away, from your hotel), and a short rest.
Angkor Thom South Gate
15m · Admission ticket not included
This majestic site once served as the Khmer Empire's glistening capital city. Take a moment to consider its grandiosity before venturing inside the city.
Bayon Temple
2h · Admission ticket not included
Pass by the famous Terrace of the Leper King, and the Terrace of Elephant.
See the large smiling faces at the Bayon Temple and some of the lesser-known but still outstanding temple, like the Buddhist temple of Banteay Kdei, a pyramid temple that is used by monks.
Ta Prohm Temple
1h · Admission ticket not included
One of the most atmospheric of all temples in Angkor. Once home to 2,740 monks, Ta Prohm today looks much as it did in the early 1850s, when French explorer Henri Mouhot ‘rediscovered’ this crumbling site. After exploring the maze-like interior of Ta Prohm, return to your hotel after a long but fulfilling day, which will leave you with a lifetime of memories of one of the wonders of the world.

Day 2: Tonle Sap lake & Monk blessing
Tonle Sap Lake
3h · Admission ticket included
This morning at 8.00am depart your hotel for the journey through the countryside to the world’s second largest freshwater Tonle Sap Lake.
The Tonle Sap Lake swells to 12,000 km². During the dry half of the year, the lake shrinks to as small as 2,500 km², draining into the Tonle Sap River. Each year, millions of fish come to spawn in the seasonally flooded forest surrounding the lake, attracting a myriad of water birds as well as people, who have settled in villages along the shores and who live with the rhythm of the water. This ecosystem was classified as a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 1997.
