Beng Mealea, Koh Ker Temples Tour Siem Reap Phnom Penh

A half-day trip from Siem Reap that visits Siem Reap Angkor International Airport (SAI and Cambodi. The price covers 1-Way Siem Reap to Phnom Penh, pick up and drop off and English speaking driver. It does not cover lunch & personal expense, 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. Ta Prohm is the temple the French conservators deliberately left half-swallowed, so the silk-cotton and strangler fig roots still pour over its galleries, and it is the one every visitor recognises from Tomb Raider. It was built by Jayavarman VII in 1186 as a Buddhist monastery and university; an inscription records that it once supported more than 12,500 people, with another 80,000 in the villages that fed it. Wooden walkways now route visitors past the famous roots, which means the queue for the best-known tree can be long by mid-morning. Preah Khan, its larger companion to the north, gets a fraction of the crowds and is the better walk for anyone who wants the same atmosphere without the line. The price steps with party size rather than multiplying: 1 traveller is $436, 5 is $813 and 8 is $1,092. You are quoted the total for your party, not a per-head rate. Cambodia Taxi Driver runs it. We book with them directly, so the guide who meets you works for the operator rather than for a reseller.
