What to expect

  1. Angkor Wat
    3h · Admission ticket not included
    Start your tour with an early morning pickup from your Siem Reap hotel and travel to the Angkor Archaeological Park in the comfort of an air-conditioned minibus. Once you’ve purchased your entrance tickets (own expense), head through the little-visited western entrance to experience Angkor Wat at sunrise.

    Siem Reap Tour Itinerary: Sunrise & Iconic Temples.

    Start your day early with a breathtaking sunrise at Angkor Wat, the world’s largest religious monument. Watch as the temple's iconic towers reflect beautifully in the surrounding moat. Capture stunning photos before the main crowds arrive.

    After sunrise, explore the interior of Angkor Wat, which was originally built as a Hindu temple for Vishnu but later became a Buddhist site.
    Discover intricate bas-reliefs depicting Hindu mythology, the grand galleries, and the impressive central sanctuary.
  2. Banteay Kdei
    1h · Admission ticket not included
    Visit Banteay Kdei Temple:
    A quieter, lesser-known temple compared to the others, Banteay Kdei means “Citadel of Chambers.”
    Built in the late 12th century, this Buddhist monastery features unique carvings and serene corridors. The temple is partially in ruins, giving it a peaceful, mysterious atmosphere.
  3. Ta Prohm Temple
    2h · Admission ticket not included
    Explore Ta Prohm Temple:
    Famous for the massive tree roots growing over its walls, Ta Prohm is one of the most photogenic temples.
    This 12th-century temple was left largely unrestored, creating a "jungle temple" effect. It was made world-famous by the movie Tomb Raider, featuring Angelina Jolie.
  4. Bayon Temple
    1h · Admission ticket not included
    Visit Bayon Temple:
    Located at the center of Angkor Thom, Bayon Temple is known for its 54 towers, each adorned with four massive, serene faces of Avalokiteshvara.
    The temple’s intricate carvings depict scenes of daily life and historical battles.
    It’s one of the most unique and iconic temples in Angkor.
  5. 30m · Admission ticket not included
    Stop at Tonle Om Gate (South Gate of Angkor Thom)
    This grand entrance to Angkor Thom is flanked by a dramatic causeway lined with statues of gods and demons. The massive gate is crowned with four giant stone faces, similar to those at Bayon Temple.

    It’s a great spot for photos before heading back to your hotel or accommodation.
