Phnom Kulen: Motorbike Adventure to Lost City Temples
Full description
A full-day trip from Siem Reap that visits Krong Siem Reap, Elephant Pond-Srah Damrei, Aram Rong Chen Temple and ប្រាសាទអូរផ្អុង O Phaong Temple. There are 5 stops altogether, so it fills the day rather than leaving long gaps between two or three highlights. The price covers Professional English-Speaking Tour Guide, Private and Insurance Air-conditioned Vehicle and Driver and Hotel Pickup and Drop-off. It does not cover phnom kulen passes, meals and drinks and personal expenses and tips, 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. Phnom Kulen is the sandstone plateau the Angkor temples were quarried from and the place where Jayavarman II declared himself universal monarch in 802, which is the founding date Cambodians give their empire. The road up is steep and the site carries its own USD 20 entry, separate from the Angkor Pass. At the top are the two-tier waterfall people swim under, the river bed carved with lingas at Kbal Spean's larger cousin, and a reclining Buddha cut into a boulder at the summit pagoda, reached barefoot. It is a full day from Siem Reap and best in or just after the rains, when the falls actually run. The price steps with party size rather than multiplying: 1 traveller is $306, 5 is $455 and 8 is $624. You are quoted the total for your party, not a per-head rate. SOUTHEAST ASIA JOURNEYS runs it. We book with them directly, so the guide who meets you works for the operator rather than for a reseller.

Important information
Meeting point
The operator confirms the exact meeting point and time once your booking is confirmed, and you will have it well before the day. If you would rather know before you book, message us on WhatsApp and we will ask them for you.
Weather
This runs outdoors, so the operator can call it off for rain, wind or sea conditions, and that decision is usually made on the day. If they cancel, you choose: another date, or your money back in full. We do not keep a booking fee on a tour that did not run.
