Itinerary
Angkor Wat
Start your tour with an early morning pickup from your Siem Reap hotel and travel to the Angkor Archaeological Park in the comfort of an air-conditioned minibus. Once you’ve purchased your entrance tickets (own expense), head through the little-visited western entrance to experience Angkor Wat at sunrise. Siem Reap Tour Itinerary: Sunrise & Iconic Temples 1. Sunrise at Angkor Wat Start your day early with a breathtaking sunrise at Angkor Wat, the world’s largest religious monument. Watch as the temple's iconic towers reflect beautifully in the surrounding moat. Capture stunning photos before the main crowds arrive. 2. Explore Inside Angkor Wat After sunrise, explore the interior of Angkor Wat, which was originally built as a Hindu temple for Vishnu but later became a Buddhist site. Discover intricate bas-reliefs depicting Hindu mythology, the grand galleries, and the impressive central sanctuary.
Bayon Temple
Visit Bayon Temple: Located at the center of Angkor Thom, Bayon Temple is known for its 54 towers, each adorned with four massive, serene faces of Avalokiteshvara. The temple’s intricate carvings depict scenes of daily life and historical battles. It’s one of the most unique and iconic temples in Angkor.
Ta Prohm Temple
Explore Ta Prohm Temple: Famous for the massive tree roots growing over its walls, Ta Prohm is one of the most photogenic temples. This 12th-century temple was left largely unrestored, creating a "jungle temple" effect. It was made world-famous by the movie Tomb Raider, featuring Angelina Jolie.
Banteay Kdei
Visit Banteay Kdei Temple: A quieter, lesser-known temple compared to the others, Banteay Kdei means “Citadel of Chambers.” Built in the late 12th century, this Buddhist monastery features unique carvings and serene corridors. The temple is partially in ruins, giving it a peaceful, mysterious atmosphere.

Great experience with a very nice driver!
I booked this tuktuk “big tour sunset” tour, the organizer was very quick and available knowing that I had booked quite late. The tour of the temples is great, a good complement to the first tour. My driver was great, he was punctual and provided me with several bottles of fresh water and a refreshing towel. It was very friendly, I recommend without hesitation this tour!

Amazing sunrise experience at Angkor, with an amazing guide
One of the best tours and the best guides I have ever had. Everything went smoothly and as per the plan. I had booked the tour online with no prior communication with the agency and was picked up on time from the correct place :) The itinerary covers most of the main spots at Angkor. The tour guide did an amazing job in managing the group of people, no drama no delays 😃 He had an amazing skill to deliver, what he called "lesson time" so other than the mesmerising structures we also got to learn a lot about the history. bonus: he also took great photos Totally recommend

Amazing tour
The best tour in Siem Reap, Angkor. The tour was very fun and good English speaking. easy to understanding. We then had an enjoyable tour, going around the temple complex with Prem being a very qualified tour guide with immense knowledge of the history and the buildings found in the complex. We also enjoyed our meal at the restaurant he took us to and the restaurant was also reasonably priced.
