We shall meet you at the airport / ferry / bus station and bring you to Golden Mango Inn / Similar Hotel for checking in.

As soon as you feel prepared and have agreed upon the itinerary we intend to make a short drive to buy the temple pass at the check point in Angkor Park, then heading to visit the Rolous Group of temples to the east of Siem Reap.
Hariharalaya was the earliest Angkor capital in region and was built by Jayavarman II (the first god king) in the ninth century. The principle temples there are Preash Ko, Lo Lei and the beautiful Bakong, the temple mountain.

We shall then explore a magnificent ancient archaeological Angkor Wat, ranked number 2 of all the wonders of the world and it is the biggest Hindu temple in Cambodia with a moat 200m wide and 5.5km long. This temple boasts many important bas-relief depicting Hindu mythology and Angkor history.

After breakfast, we shall intend to head directly to Angkor Thom, in its time the largest city in the world and political capital of King Jayavarman VII in the 12th century. We enter by the famous South Gate and see Bayon, Terrace of Elephant and Leper King and the golden palace, Phimeanakas with the beautiful Royal baths.

In the afternoon we shall visit some of the temples of the small circuit including the famously picturesque Ta Phrom with its giant fig trees growing intertwined with the temple ruins. This is the temple of film ‘Tombraider”.

After breakfast, we travel 37km through typical Khmer village at the countryside to visit Banteay Srey. Built in 967 AD by the great King Rajendravarman II, dedicated to Siva God. It is
unique pink sandstone temple with stunningly decorated and in pristine condition. On the way back to Siem Reap we may sample some traditional palm sugar sweets from a roadside seller. We can then visit Bantey Samre, built by the architect of Suryavarman II who built Angkor Wat.

In the afternoon we could take a Tonle Sap boat cruise to visit the floating village and see the surprising cultures of the people living there. It can be very photogenic at the lake. On the return journey to Siem Reap we would recommend visiting the Artisan Centre and market…etc.

Naturally we shall bring you to airport / ferry or bus station for your departure. End of Service, Good luck !!!
