Description

Experience beauty and culture combined on this guided tour over 3 days. Discover the temples of Angkor, Banteay Srei, floating villages, and more, on this unforgettable trip.
Day 1: Full-Day Angkor Temples guided tour
At 8:00 am meet your guide and driver at your hotel
You will start your morning tour at Angkor Wat and travel through the vast collection of ancient temples. Your guide will take you to the best spots to make sure you capture the best photos of Angkor Wat.

10:00 am - 11:30 am
When you have finished discovering Angkor Wat, you will then head out into the center of Angkor Thom and enter the city through the Ancient Gate, an impressive stone gate carved with elephants and four giant faces. From here, continue to Bayon Temple, which is found in the center of the city of the Great Khmer Empire.

12:00 pm – 2:00 pm
Continue to visit Ta Prohm Temple, which is your next stop before some leisure time in the afternoon. Ta Prohm is unique in that it has been left largely as it was found overgrown by jungle trees and vines. After all that crawling, you will enjoy lunch with a large spread of local dishes. As the day heats up, we drive back to your hotel.

Day 2: Full-Day Exploring Banteay Samre & Benteay Srie
At 8:00 am meet your guide and driver at your hotel
This morning, we travel to Banteay Samre, built by Suryavarman II and Yasovarman II in the early 12th century. It is a Hindu temple in the Angkor Wat style. Named after the Samré, an ancient people of Indochina, the temple uses the same materials as the Banteay Srei.

10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Continue your journey to visit Banteay Srei. Along the way, you will have a chance to stop at a palm sugar village where the locals produce sugar from palm juice. Palm sugar is becoming more popular in local cuisine and is taking over from traditional white sugar.

12:30 pm -2:30 pm
You will have lunch at the local restaurant and continue to Banteay Srei, where your guide will take you around the complex and tell you about the history of the temple. As the day heats up, we drive back to your hotel.

Day 3: Explore the life of Floating Village and Sunset cruise

At 2:30 pm meet your guide and driver at your hotel
You will be picked up from your hotel and head south of Siem Reap through the picturesque Cambodian countryside. Stop at a local family house surrounded by rice paddies and farms. Here you will sip on cold coconut water or a local juice, meet the family, and spend time with them to learn about their farming life.

3:30 pm - 5:00 pm
You will then drive to Tonle Sap Lake and shuttle by boat through the floating villages, where friendly locals will greet you with smiles and enthusiastic waves. Your expert guide will describe the Tonle Sap lake in more detail and tell you about the phenomenon that creates a depth variance of up to eight meters and why this lake is vital to Cambodia’s survival.

5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
To complete the evening, we take a boat ride on the waterway with local delicacies, including soft drinks and other cold beverages, while enjoying a spectacular view of Tonle Sap at twilight. You can expect to return back to town around 7:00 pm.
