Begin the day with pickup at your Siem Reap hotel, and travel to Angkor in an air-conditioned minivan. Spend the morning at Angkor’s most iconic sites, starting with Angkor Wat, where narrow stone passageways wind past bas-relief carvings and shrines. Find gold-shrouded statues tended by local monks, then climb the stairs into a central gallery filled with dancing apsaras figures. Continue to the southern gate of Angkor Thom: walk down a narrow lane guarded by 108 statues of smiling gods and fierce demons.
Discover the serene stone faces that stare down from the 12th-century Bayon temple, whose long bas-reliefs tell the dramatic story of Khmer victories against Cham warriors, then follow the richly decorated Terrace of the Leper King to the Terrace of Elephants.
Pause for lunch before exploring the maze-like Ta Prohm — this atmospheric site is also known as the ‘Tomb Raider’ temple — to find hidden chambers wrapped with creeping vines. This tour concludes with return transfer to your hotel.

Itinerary
Get picked up from your Siem Reap hotel in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle and head straight for the ruins. As you motor toward Angkor Wat, learn about its history as the world's largest religious monument, replete with Hindu-Buddhist architecture that took 30 years to complete. Follow your guide inside, glimpsing intricate stonework as you wander galleries that have been shockingly well-maintained.
Duration: 2 hours

Angkor Thom is the majestic site once served as the Khmer Empire's glistening capital city. Take a moment to consider its grandiosity before venturing inside the city. Arriving at the temple at Bayon, appreciate its beautifully crafted central towers covered in more than 200 enormous faces.
Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

After lunch pay a visit to Ta Prohm—a temple set in the midst of the jungle. Wander the maze-like ruins of this ornate worship site, marveling at the fig trees that threaten to overtake the edifice. Absorb a late afternoon breeze and enjoy the peaceful, rural atmosphere before heading back to your hotel.

Traveler Tips
- "It was good to have a small minibus group because this gave us the flexibility to adjust the itinerary to avoid the mass bus groups of mainly Chinese who flooded the temple entrances on a set schedule." See review
- "Speak english well and make our tour a fun one." See review
