About this experience
This is the ultimate tour of the most haunting and spectacular temples in Cambodia. While Angkor Wat deservedly steals the limelight as the most famous sunrise in the world and the largest religious monument, Ta Prohm, Banteay Srei, and Angkor Thom (with the stunning Bayon Temple at its center) are equally humbling and beautiful.
On this guided private tour, you’ll visit these sites at your own pace in the comfort of an air-conditioned minivan (or with the wind in your hair in a tuk-tuk, if you prefer!). Our guides are some of the best—personable, knowledgeable, passionate, and friendly. With chilled water provided throughout and the option to customize the route and start time, this is the finest way to experience the most incredible temple sites on Earth!

Detailed itinerary
1
Stop 1
Angkor Wat is the largest religious monument in the world, and the world's most famous sunrise. It is an astonishingly large and ambitious complex symbolising the power and majesty of the ancient Angkor civilisation.
2
Stop 2
Angkor Thom was the latter capital of the Angkor Empire. The road takes us through the famous South Gate, lined with gods and demons locked in an eternal tug-of-war. The temple of Bayon at the centre of the site is lined with countless beatific carved faces, gazing eternally at the surrounding forest.
3
Stop 3
Ta Prohm is a picturesque and attractive ruin partially retaken by jungle. It is also known as 'the Tomb Raider temple', made famous by Angelina Jolie in the 2001 film.
4
Stop 4
Banteay Srei is a miniature temple in much better condition than most in Angkor. It received extensive restoration after it was 'rediscovered' in the early 20th century, including many elements being rebuilt with original materials. As such it provides an excellent insight into how many of the other Angkor temples might have looked when originally built (albeit smaller and without paint).
