Apsara Theatre Show Private Round-trip Transfers in Siem Reap

A 3-hour experience in Siem Reap. The operator sums it up as enjoy a private round-trip transfer from your hotel to apsara theatre. The price covers Hotel pickup and drop-off, Transportation by tuk-tuk, AC car, or AC van and Parking fees & road tolls. It does not cover apsara theatre tickets, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price. Apsara dance takes its name and its poses from the celestial dancers carved in their thousands on the Angkor walls, and the classical form was rebuilt after the Khmer Rouge years from the handful of teachers who survived. The hand positions are a fixed vocabulary, each one a meaning, and a trained dancer's fingers bend back further than looks possible because the training starts in childhood. Most Siem Reap shows come with a buffet; the serious performances are shorter and ticketed on their own. Phare, the Cambodian circus, is a different thing altogether, a school in Battambang that takes children from hard backgrounds and stages modern acrobatic theatre about Cambodian life. The price steps with party size rather than multiplying: 1 traveller is $30, 5 is $62 and 8 is $120. You are quoted the total for your party, not a per-head rate. Happy Angkor Tour Cambodia runs it. We book with them directly, so the guide who meets you works for the operator rather than for a reseller.
