Angkor Thom – South Gate: After purchasing your entrance pass, the tour begins at the magnificent South Gate of Angkor Thom. This impressive entrance features gigantic smiling stone faces and marks the gateway to the ancient walled city.

Stop 3
Bayon Temple – The Temple of Smiling Faces: Continue your journey through Angkor Thom with a visit to the impressive Bayon Temple, located at the heart of the ancient city. Famous for its imposing structures adorned with more than 200 serene, smiling faces, Bayon is one of Cambodia’s most iconic and photogenic temples. Its intricate bas-reliefs and mystical atmosphere make it an unforgettable highlight of the tour.
4
Baphuon – The Temple Mountain: Continue on to the impressive Baphuon Temple, a pyramid-shaped monument once known as the “Bronze Tower.” Built in the 11th century and originally dedicated to Shiva, Baphuon is one of the most important temple-mountains of the Angkor period. Its steep terraces and grand scale offer an excellent insight into early Khmer religious architecture and engineering.

7
Ta Prohm – The Jungle Temple: Step into a cinematic scene at Ta Prohm, one of Angkor’s most iconic and atmospheric temples. Famous for its appearance in Tomb Raider, this 12th-century Buddhist monastery has been largely preserved in its natural state, with massive silk-cotton and strangler fig trees intertwining with the stone ruins, creating a breathtaking “lost in the jungle” atmosphere.
