Hop off Tour to Ancient Temple of Angkor Thom in Siem Reap

A half-day experience in Siem Reap. The operator sums it up as visit huge temple preah khan with tree grow up down the towers. The price covers English Speaking guide, Tuk Tuk and driver and bottle of water and cold towel. It does not cover angkor temple pass and food and other 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. Angkor Thom was the last capital of the Khmer empire, laid out by Jayavarman VII around 1200 behind eight metres of wall and a moat, with five gates whose causeways are lined by gods and demons hauling on a serpent. At its centre is the Bayon, whose towers carry over 200 enormous serene faces, and whose outer galleries show not gods but ordinary Khmer life: markets, cockfights, a woman giving birth, the naval battle against the Chams. The Baphuon behind it was dismantled for restoration and rebuilt over decades after the records were lost in the war. The Terrace of the Elephants was the royal reviewing stand, 350 metres of parading elephants and garudas. Priced per person at about $52 each, so a party of 5 comes to $260. The price you see on this page is the total for the party size you pick, not a per-head figure to multiply. Private Siem Reap Tour Guide & Transport runs it. We book with them directly, so the guide who meets you works for the operator rather than for a reseller.
