Preah Khan Komung SvayTemple and Beng Mealea Day Trip in Siem Reap

A full-day trip from Siem Reap that visits Krong Siem Reap, Prasat Beng Mealea, Sangkum Thmei Area Programm and Prasat Preah Khan of Kampong Svay. There are 6 stops altogether, so it fills the day rather than leaving long gaps between two or three highlights. The price covers Local guide, Transportation and Temple tickets. 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 $351, 5 is $702 and 8 is $702. You are quoted the total for your party, not a per-head rate. Camboya Travel runs it. We book with them directly, so the guide who meets you works for the operator rather than for a reseller.
