Angkor Wat - Adventure Tour

08:00-17.00 hrs

You will be picked up from your centrally located hotels between 8.00 and 8.30am. We start our Angkor temples adventure with a visit to Angkor Wat easily the most famous and best-preserved of all temples within the Angkor complex.

We then move on to Angkor Thom city visiting Bayon, with its 54 towers decorated with more than 200 enigmatic smiling faces, Phimeanakas, Baphoun, Terrace of the Elephants and the Terrace of the Leper King. We finish the morning with a stop at the very photogenic South Gate of Angkor Thom City where the gods and demons line the road leading to the gate struggling in a cosmic tug-of-war.

The Gate itself is crowned with four large faces facing in the cardinal directions. Lunch is Khmer style in a village surrounded by rice paddies. Enjoy a spread of great local food followed by a nap lazing in a hammock, or explore the village to see the traditional way of life and play with the families there.

After lunch we visit the beautiful Ta Prohm (Tomb Raider) temple which was made famous by Angelina Jolie. Feel like one of the early explorers as you visit this temple which has been left to be reclaimed by the jungle. If time permits finish the day climbing one of the oldest buildings in the Angkor complex, the brick temple of Pre Rup.
