Itinerary
Experience the most significant sunrise in South-East Asia, Angkor Wat. Angkor Wat is the world's largest and best-preserved monument, as well as an architectural masterpiece. It is one of the world's finest monuments due to its perfection in composition, balance, proportions, reliefs, and sculptures.
In stark contrast to the often overwhelmingly crowded and popular Angkorian ruins, Banteay Kdei is peaceful and quiet. Serving as a Buddhist temple, these ruins have been home to an active monastery at multiple periods since its construction in the 12th century, up until the 1960s. Today, the ruins are overgrown and seemingly forgotten by the bustling Angkor tourism industry. Its solitude and mystery make it a hidden gem for explorers of the region. Tall trees cast shade over Buddhist bas-reliefs, and many hours can be spent on its meandering design.
After exploring Angkor Wat and Banteay Kdei, we'll take a break for a delicious breakfast and relax with the best view of the Srah Srang reservoir.
The world's most gorgeous temple! The ruined temple inside the jungle is known as "Ta Prohm," but it is also known as "Tomb Raider Temple" by international tourists because it was featured in a film starring Angelina Jolie. The enormous trees that have grown out of the temple stones have made Ta Prohm Cambodia's most gorgeous temple.
Angkor Thom was the Khmer Empire's final and most enduring capital city. It was founded in the late 12th century and covers a 9-square-kilometer area, inside which are numerous structures from earlier eras, such as Bayon temple, Baphoun, and the Royal Palace........from the earlier era.
Constructed in the 12th century as a state temple of King Jayavarman VII, Bayon Temple is located right in the heart of Angkor Thom. It is a perfect sample of the artistic brilliance of the most renowned king of Khmer Empire. The 54 towers of Bayon are decorated with 216 smiling faces of Avalokiteshvara.

We visited the temples during Covid-19 cause we're living in Cambodia. All temples are beautiful and quiet. We bought one day pass but we can go to temples for two days, this is great. in the morning at 8, it was a time for breakfast but we were really difficult to get breakfast because all the restaurants are closed, but our guide took us to have a very simple local breakfast on along the way to Angkor Thom call "Bor Bor Kroeung" i hope i spelled it right, it was really nice though. Great tour, guide and driver, all are just great!

We wake up at 4 in the morning and being ready to go down to lobby, our guide and driver just sit and waited us in there. It was really early for us to do that but Angkor Wat in the dark morning is stunning. We sat at the south library of the temple and our guide is started to tell the story of Angkor. We really loved the way he presenting the details and after that we went to the inner side of Angkor Wat. Spent almost 3 hours in Angkor Wat then we did Angkor Thom, Bayon temple, it is the face temple and it represent the Buddha that's what our guide said. We did a two more temple surrounding, Ta Nei and Ta Prom. All in one package, this is great for us and we recommended this to you.

A great thing to see real of Cambodia. I and my husband went on vacation to Siem Reap and decided to do this Angkor tour. We were the only ones on the tour, the tour was very flexible to what we were wanted to do and see. Our guide Chamreon was really great and knowledgeable about the area, especially Angkor. The food was great too and Mr. Vann, driver always being smiled and friendly. I highly recommended this to everyone when come to Siem Reap!
We met our guide Phally at the hotel we stayed and we asked him to take us to Angkor for one day tour because we had a very short time in Siem Reap, only 2 days. Phally is working here, Pineapple Cambodia Tour and he recommended us to do a sunrise tour, it was a bit early for us because sunrise tour is started at 4,45am but the sunrise is unexpected, stunning and amazing. Thank you Pineapple Cambodia and recommended Phally as your guide!
