Itinerary
Following a hotel pick-up at 9 am from Siem Reap City area hotel, your first stop will be Angkor Wat which is the biggest and most spectacular of all the temples at Angkor.
It has a moat and an outer wall that stretches for 3.6 kilometers. Within the walls there is a large area of empty space with a long path to the main temple. Along the sides of the temple are detailed bas reliefs mainly showing epic Hindu stories. You can climb to the top of the central towers and look out over the whole site from there.
Next you will visit Banteay Srei. Banteay Srei is one of the most beautiful temples in the Angkor region and gives its name to the surrounding district. However, Banteay Srei is so much more than a temple, offering visitors a diverse range of real-life experiences just a short distance from cosmopolitan Siem Reap. Discover life beyond the temples and experience the real Cambodia with a visit to the heart of Banteay Srei District.
Continue to Bayon Temple. The Bayon is a well-known and richly decorated Khmer temple at Angkor in Cambodia. Built in the late 12th or early 13th century as the official state temple of the Mahayana Buddhist King Jayavarman VII, the Bayon stands at the center of Jayavarman's capital, Angkor Thom. Following Jayavarman's death, it was modified and augmented by later Hindu and Theravada Buddhist kings following their religious preferences.
After lunch, at your own cost, you will proceed to visit Ta Prohm. Ta Prohm is one of the Buddhist temples in Siem Reap, built by King Jayavarman VII in 1186. This temple was dedicated to the King's mother and made in the form of Prajnaparamita ("Perfection of Wisdom " or the name of the mother of Buddha). Ta Prohm was initially named Rajavihara. At approximately 05:00 pm, you'll arrive at your hotel in Siem Reap, where the tour will end.

We were picked up from our hotel on time in a spacious van. Mr Vong was professional, knowledgeable and fluent in English. He explained the order in which we were going to see the temples. It was a very hot day even though it was early January so the cold water bottles were a nice relief. Mr Vong explained the history and cultural background of each of the temples visited. He also pointed out to us what angle we would get the best photos from. He also answered all our questions regarding life in Siem Reap and Cambodia. Would totally recommend this tour as you see the best four temples in a full day and at a good pace.
Picked up from hotel on time. Mr Thou was very knowledgeable & fluent in English. Explained the history & importance of each temple. Took lots of good photos for us & emailed to us later. Highly recommend this tour.
we only visited three temples the main big one, the face temple and the Angoline Jolie temple. used these names as its easier to identify them. there are of course more, a lot more. Go for the sunrise tour. you have to wake up early, we had to be there at around 05:30. but worth the while. you could also break the tour into morning, and late afternoon. in the meantime take a midday break. we opeted to go through the main temples all the way until 1600. also best if you go with a guide (an official one, book it from the hotel) we had an excellent guide !
Thank you for joining with us and high rating us.
<p>The tour was excellent! I learned not only about the temples, but also about Cambodian history and culture. Mr Thou took the time to explain carvings in the walls, and was helpful with photos since I was by myself. The place we went for lunch was great as well</p>
<p>This tour gave us everything that we wanted to see in Cambodia. We couldn't ask for anything better. Our tour guide Mr. Thou was well versed and educated us in Cambodian culture. The sites we saw were incredible. It amazed us that it took us just a day and we were given enough time at each place.</p>
<p>We had an amazing time, and our tour guide Mr. Sophorn was very good. He spoke very good English, knew a lot about the country's history and about the temples we visited. The car was air conditioned and roomy and the lunch spot was good as well. If you have limited time in Siem Reap, this definitely was the best way to go see all three of the temples in one day.</p>
