3 Day Private Tour Angkor Wat Ta Prohm and Beng Mealea

Day 1: Roluos Group, Banteay Srei and Banteay Samre

1. Prasat Bakong
   3h
   Your guide and driver will pick you up from your hotel lobby to begin your journey into the earliest roots of the Khmer Empire. Explore the Roluos Group, starting with Bakong, a striking 9th-century mountain temple dedicated to Shiva by King Indravarman I. Next, visit Preah Ko, built in 879 AD to honor royal ancestors, showcasing early Khmer artistic brickwork and carved sandstone. Finish at Lolei, an island temple originally built in the middle of a massive, now-dry reservoir (baray).
2. Banteay Srei
   2h · Admission ticket not included
   Travel north to Banteay Srei, affectionately known as the "Citadel of Women." Famous for its intricate pink sandstone carvings that cover walls like delicate tapestry, this 10th-century shrine is widely celebrated as the jewel in the crown of classical Khmer art.
3. Banteay Samre
   1h · Admission ticket not included
   Discover Banteay Samre, one of the most complete and beautifully restored complexes in the Angkor region, meticulously brought back to life using the anastylosis method. Built in the same classic architectural style as Angkor Wat, it features grand proportions, detailed bas-reliefs, and a unique interior paved moat that once created an ethereal floating effect.

Day 2: Angkor Thom City, Ta Prohm and Angkor Wat

1. Angkor Thom South Gate
   4h · Admission ticket not included
   Begin the day at the majestic South Gate of Angkor Thom, where stone causeways are lined with 54 devas (guardian gods) and 54 asuras (demons) holding a sacred serpent. Explore the heart of the walled city at Bayon Temple, renowned for its 54 towers featuring over 200 serene carved stone faces and vibrant bas-reliefs of everyday ancient life. Continue to Baphuon, Phimeanakas, the Terrace of the Elephants, and the Terrace of the Leper King.
2. Ta Prohm Temple
   1h · Admission ticket not included
   Step into the romantic, atmospheric ruins of Ta Prohm. Left largely as it was found, giant fig, banyan, and kapok tree roots wrap around ancient stone walls and corridors, creating the iconic "Tomb Raider" jungle landscape.
3. Angkor Wat
   3h · Admission ticket not included
   In the afternoon, explore Angkor Wat, the world’s largest religious monument. Admire its soaring central towers, sprawling galleries, and exquisite bas-reliefs depicting epic Hindu mythology. Take time to walk along the peaceful outer laterite walls and moat to enjoy tranquil views of the surrounding countryside.

Day 3: Beng Mealea and Tonle Sap Lake (Kompong Khleang)

1. Prasat Beng Mealea
   2h · Admission ticket not included
   Journey east into the jungle to explore Beng Mealea, an overgrown 12th-century temple hidden beneath thick vegetation. Built in the same architectural style as Angkor Wat—and believed to have served as its prototype—this sprawling, unrestored sanctuary offers a true Indiana Jones-style adventure over mossy stones and fallen towers.
2. Kompong Khleang
   2h · Admission ticket not included
   Head to Tonle Sap Lake, the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia, to explore the authentic community of Kompong Khleang. Board a local boat to glide past stilted houses towering high above the water, floating schools, lush flooded forests, and rich birdlife, offering an unforgettably authentic perspective on traditional waterborne culture.
