The morning begins with a private pick up at your hotel before visiting the magnificent beauty, Angkor Wat. Walk the grounds of the temple with your experienced tour guide, admiring the stone carvings that depict ancient life. You will have ample time to explore the inside and outside of the temple, snapping photos of the massive monument.
We then head to Bayon, known for its unique 200 smiling faces that decorate its 54 towers. Walk through the jungle-like maze, exploring hidden crevices of the temple.
In the afternoon, we leave Angkor park to learn about local life and culture in Siem Reap. See silk spun by hand at the Angkor Silk Farm, where an exhibition center sits alongside locals spinning handmade clothes to see the product from start to finish.
For a look into the country’s harrowing past we visit Wat Thmei memorial, one of the infamous killing fields, and the resting place of many of the victims killed during the Khmer Regime.
Our last stop takes us to the Old Market to learn about Siem Reap’s now-thriving center at the town’s oldest market. Shop like the locals for shows, jewelry, or pick up some souvenirs to take home.
