We will have lunch at a local restaurant opposite the Angkor Wat temple. After enjoying your lunch, we continue to explore the most spectacular Angkor Wat temple and climb up mountain of the Phnom Bakheng for sunset and then transfer you back to your hotel.

You will be picked up from your hotel at 8:00 am via a private air-conditioned vehicle to visit Banteay Srei, known as the "Ladies' Temple", and the jungle temple of Beng Mealea. After exploring these sites, we will stop for lunch at a local restaurant where you can enjoy authentic Cambodian cuisine.

Next, we'll head directly to see the two main temples of the Rolous Group: Bakong temple and Lolei temple before returning you to your hotel in Siem Reap.

Leave at 4:40 am from the hotel and continue to the watch the sunrise over Angkor Wat temple. This is truly unforgettable experience. After the sunrise, experience a very authentic breakfast in the countryside of Siem Reap, that you can enjoy of taste the local food known as Num banhchok ( Cambodian noodle soup) and traditional desserts such as palm cake and steam rice dumplings with palm sugar. Then continue to visit the most beautiful temples outside city of Angkor Thom like Preah Khan temple, Neak Pean temple, Ta Som temple, East Mebon temple, Pre Rup temple and take a lunch break. Transfer you back to your hotel after having lunch.

You will be picked up from your hotel at 8:00 am via a private A/C vehicle to Phnom Kulen National Park. This journey takes you through rural Cambodian villages, where you may observe locals going about their everyday lives and admire beautiful landscapes such as rice paddies and traditional dwellings. Stop at the Cambodian Land mine museum and spend 20 minutes for its visit. Afterward, we continue to the hilltop of Phnom Kulen, and our knowledgeable local guide will take you to the most spectacular tourist attractions in the national park, including the largest and most beautiful waterfalls, the reclining Buddha sculpture, and the River of Thousand Linga, which was constructed in 802 AD. After all the crawling, we stop for lunch at a local restaurant, where you can enjoy Cambodian food.

After having a great lunch, then we'll go directly to the Kampong Phluk, flooded & fishing village of Tonle Sap lake, located just 21 kilometers from Siem Reap town. Once in the lake port, we'll take a local boat from the ferry to explore the famous floating villages of Kampong Phluk. There, you can see firsthand what everyday life is like for the many families who make their living primarily from fishing. Most families live on the lake shore in brightly colored houses on long poles, so the high water levels are not a problem during the rainy season. Explore the flooded mangrove forest surrounding the area, which is home to a variety of species, including crab-eating macaques and 3,000 inhabitants.

Be picked up from your hotel at 6:00 am and travel to the north of Cambodia. Once you arrive near the Thai border, see Preah Vihear, the most spectacular mountain temple in Cambodia.

Know before you go

  • Angkor pass of 4 days ($62 per person) is not included. We require all participants to have an Angkor temple pass before the start of the tour. This is to ensure that you will not miss the beautiful parts at Angkor. You can purchase your pass via online.
  • Dress code: All visitors are not allowed to wear as shorts as you want for the Angkor temple’s visit. Please make sure that your knees and shoulders are covered.
  • The end of March to the end of June is a crucial time in all the floating villages in Siem Reap, as the water levels start to recede and present a unique opportunity for tourists to experience a new perspective. Although the picturesque landscape of the floating community may lose some of its charm during this time, visitors have a chance to immerse themselves in the daily life of the villagers living in the dried season. While some boats may become stuck, and smaller canoes are unable to traverse the jungle forest, these challenges add to the thrill of the experience. The dry season in floating village of Kompong Phluk may not be the ideal time to visit for those seeking postcard-perfect photos, but it offers a chance to witness a facet of the village’s daily life that is not typically seen. As they say, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. We recommend visitors to embrace this rare chance to witness a different facet of this incredible destination and truly get a different taste of life in the village.
