For centuries, the Angkor realm remained hidden from the naked eye. Spanning across close to 1000 square kilometres in the heart of Cambodia, construction of what is now seen as one of the ancient wonders of the world commenced at the beginning of the 9th century.

Under the ruling of various kings, the discovery of Angkor with its numerous temple ruins, palatial architecture, and impressive entrance gates have put the country on the tourism map. By local Tuk Tuk (three-wheeled motor cycle), guests will enjoy some of Angkor’s most recognisable sites and monuments, ending at the almost unmeasurable Angkor Wat.

What To Expect

Angkor Thom

Your English-speaking guide for the day welcomes you warmly in the lobby of your hotel, joined by a local Tuk Tuk driver, from where you head out to the main entrance of the Angkor Archaeological site. For guests with an entrance pass inside Angkor, it is straight to the first stop; other guests not in possession of a valid entrance pass, your guide will assist in purchasing a pass before entering this UNESCO World Heritage Site. The morning commences at the former city walls, and its documented downtown region, of Angkor Thom. Built at the end of the twelfth century, Angkor Thom was the Khmer Empire's capital city and translates to 'large city'. It contains a large collection of sites such as the enchanting Bayon (with its 200+ smiling faces), Baphuon, Phimeanakas, the Terrace of Elephants and Jayavarman VII's palace although this no longer remains.

2 hours 30 minutes • Admission Not Included

Ta Prohm

After lunch at a local restaurant, Ta Prohm is on our itinerary. Considered one of the area’s most intriguing and famous temples, thanks to its appearance in the film Tomb Raider, Ta Prohm is a jungle temple that has been almost left untouched since it was discovered. It is the perfect lost in the jungle temple as strangler figs and kapok trees entwine themselves around its ruins and their roots burst apart even the thickest of walls.
