What To Expect

Day 1

Angkor Sunrise Tour - Most famous temples

1

Angkor Wat

Pick-up at your hotel: Early departure from your hotel to admire the unforgettable sunrise over Angkor Wat, the most famous temple complex of the Angkor Archaeological Park. The entire archaeological site spans over 400 square kilometers/ 4305 square feet and was declared a UNSECO World Heritage Site in 1992.

1 hour•Admission Not Included
2

Angkor Thom South Gate

After breakfast, which you can either have at the food stalls/restaurants in Angkor Park or returning to your hotel with us, our driver brings the group to the south gate of Angkor Thom. It is the most beautiful and best preserved of the five entrances to Angkor Thom, the largest complex of the Angkor Archaeological Park. The royal city of Angkor Thom was built at the end of the 12th to the beginning of the 13th century.

2 hours•Admission Not Included
3

Bayon Temple

Here you will find the main temple Bayon of King Jayavarman VII. It is famous for its 37 towers with sculptural decorations and impressive rock faces.

1 hour•Admission Not Included
4

Terrace of the Elephants

As you might guess from the name, this site is made up of three platforms surrounded by elephants carved in stone and representing an elephant hunt.

15 minutes•Admission Not Included
5

Terrace of the Leper King

It is considered one of the most beautiful Khmer artworks. The name comes from King Yasovarman I, who built the first city of Angkor and died of leprosy. The relief is very detailed and extremely well preserved.

20 minutes•Admission Not Included
6

Phimeanakas

The royal temple is one of the smallest temples of Angkor. At the top of the 12-meter-high pyramid you have a great view of the entire archaeological site of Angkor Thom.

45 minutes•Admission Not Included
7

Ta Nei Temple

After lunch, which you can choose from the wide range of local and international food offered directly in the Angkor Park area, we visit a smaller temple located about 4.5 km/ 2.7 mi from Angkor Wat, called Ta Nei. It isn't part of the main tourist routes of Angkor because tour buses do not reach the place. Therefore Ta Nei is not so crowded and there is enough room to explore the temple of King Jayavarman VII with our guide.

1 hour•Admission Not Included
8

Ta Prohm

Before you visit the most famous temple complex called Angkor Wat, our driver will take you to Ta Prohm. The “Jungle Temple”, which was built by Jayavarman VII in honor of his mother. The temple was almost swallowed by the jungle. The impressive Bayon architecture merges with the tropical forest. The unforgettable scenery was made famous by the movie “Lara Croft: Tomb Raider” starring Angelina Jolie. It is an unforgettable sight as nature incorporates a former civilization. Definitively a highlight of the first day of your trip in Angkor.

1 hour•Admission Not Included
9

Angkor Wat

A short drive will take you to Angkor Wat, the most famous temple in historic Angkor Park. Angkor Wat with its pagoda was once the center of the mighty Khmer kingdom. You can climb the steep steps up to the tower and have a magnificent view over the World Heritage Site of Angkor. Your guide will tell you exciting stories of the Khmer Empire and its kings of long ago. One thing is certain, you will not get bored. Maybe your feet will get a bit tired, but the UNESCO World Heritage Site is worth the effort.

2 hours•Admission Not Included
Day 2

Remote temples of Angkor

1

Banteay Samre

Since the tour starts very early on the first day you have the opportunity on the second day to sleep a little longer and to have breakfast in the hotel before we pick you up. On day two we visit the more distant and hidden temples of Angkor Park. These are up to 60km/37mi from Siem Reap and are not clustered in a nearby complex, as is the case with the temples on Day 1 of the tour. They are scattered near Kulen National Park. Banteay Samre: East of the main area of Angkor is Banteay Samre. The temple shows Buddhist and Hindu reliefs. Banteay Samre is not part of the usual tourist route for Angkor and thus little crowded. Especially this remoteness makes it worth seeing, even if the restoration was neglected here a bit. The processional path is decorated with guard figures. Even the drive through fields and villages is a nice experience.

1 hour 30 minutes•Admission Not Included
2

Banteay Srei

The temple of Banteay Srey is located about 20km/12.5mi from the main complex of Angkor. The drive through small villages and rice fields offers you a deeper impression of the Cambodian culture. Banteay Srey is the only temple not built by the king himself but by his minister. It was used until the 14th century and only rediscovered in 1914 and then extensively restored. It's called the Pink Temple, like the color of the sandstone. At the same time it is the smallest temple of Angkor as well as one of the most beautiful stone carvings, even among the most beautiful in the world. Therefore, anyone who wants to get a little deeper into Khmer history should include this temple in their program. Translated, Banteay Srey is called “Citadel of the Woman” and gives an indication that the work was done by a woman. This is reflected in the fine structures of the stone figures which are often worked in three dimensions. That’s why the nickname of the temple is Art Gallery of Angkor.

1 hour 30 minutes•Admission Not Included
3

Kbal Spean

You can decide where you want to have lunch on the way to Kbal Spean is located on a river in the jungle about 60km/37mi from the main complex of Angkor. It is often referred to as the “river of a thousand lingas”. Lingas are fertility symbols that appear in various forms in Hindu culture and are intended to show Shiva’s creative and destructive power. In addition to the lingas, there are also numerous stone paintings of deities and animals. To reach the stone painting it takes about 30 minutes of walking through a jungle path along the river. Depending on the season, the river even dries out completely, allowing a closer look at the stone paintings in the riverbed. If you are looking forward to a filled river, the place is best visited between July and December. The path along the river leads on one side to the stone carvings and on the other to a small waterfall. Here you also have the opportunity to have lunch depending on your wishes.

1 hour 30 minutes•Admission Not Included
4

Srah Srang

Srah Srang translates to Royal bath. The water reservoir is located south of the East Baray and close to the Pyramid Temple of Pre Rup.

30 minutes•Admission Not Included
5

Pre Rup

Sunset in Pre Rup or Srah Srang: To end the day with a beautiful sunset, we drive again into the main area of Angkor. Here you have the choice of seeing the sun settling in the water reservoir of Srah Srang, a historic ritual ablution site near Angkor Thom, or the Pre-Temple Pyramid Temple, the Shiva-sanctified Hindu temple with a 360-degree all-round view.

    Hands down, one of the most exceptional tour experiences we've ever had! Our guide, Sokky, was a true gem - a history buff, philosopher, photographer, and storyteller all rolled into one. His passion and knowledge were contagious! We opted for the two-day tour, which we highly recommend. Unless you are really pressed for time, one day simply isn't enough to appreciate the grandeur of Angkor Wat. Sokky tailored the tour to our preferences, even allowing us to flip the Day 1 and Day 2 itineraries. Sokky also provided multiple alternatives beyond the 'must-see' based on our comfort. He is very knowledgeable about the history as well as the mythology associated with artwork! And he has a deep understanding of the topic beyond the typical tourist facts that guides recite from rote memory. If you're in the mood for it, you can have a philosophical discourse with him, and you won't be disappointed! He also knows all the less crowded and perfect photo spots, and he can snap some Instagram-worthy pics for you. Our driver was courteous and ensured our comfort throughout, providing cold towels and water after each temple visit.

    Khemrint Kheng was our guide for a 2 day private tour of Angkor Wat and he was so attentive and knowledgeable. He made us laugh so much over the 2 days which made our trip so much enjoyable. We highly recommend the private tour with Royal Angkor Tours as we were able to customize and change things around as we had 2 elderly members and 1 child in our group.
