Grand Tour of Angkor and Sunset in Siem Reap

A 1-day trip from Siem Reap that visits ស្ពានសួនព្រះរាជដំណាក់, Banteay Srei Temple, Preah Khan Temple and Neak Poun. There are 9 stops altogether, so it fills the day rather than leaving long gaps between two or three highlights. The price covers Private transportation during the tour, Pickup and drop-off at your hotel and Local live guide. It does not cover admission ticket to the angkor temples, lunch at a local restaurant (at your own and additional drinks and personal expenses, 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. This one is priced for the group rather than per head: 1 traveller costs $189 and 8 costs $215, so the more of you there are the less each of you pays. Asia Voyage Travel & Tour runs it. We book with them directly, so the guide who meets you works for the operator rather than for a reseller.
