Start your day with a pick-up from your hotel where you will be transferred to the Angkor Wat ticket office to purchase your Angkor Pass (at your own expense), before setting off to Angkor Wat, one of the best-preserved archaeological sites in Southeast Asia.

Get Your Guide and spend the day exploring the temples of Angkor National Park. Begin with the Angkor Wat Temple, considered as one of the seven wonders of the world. Explore the massive Angkor Wat and be captivated by its complexity, intricately carved walls, columns, and chambers. With the help of your professional guide, discover the symbolic meanings of its carvings and architecture, and gain a deeper appreciation of Khmer culture.

Next, you will be driven to the fortified city of Angkor Thom. Enter through the South Gate as you walk in the middle of a causeway flanked from side to side by symbolic statues of demons and gods. The entire length of the causeway contains a total of 108 mythical creatures serving as guards to the fortified city.

Then, visit the majestic Bayon Temple, one of the most popular temples within the Angkor Thom Complex. Be mesmerized by over 200 large faces carved on 54 towers, which at that time represented the 54 provinces of the Khmer Empire. Continue your exploration at the Terrace of the Elephants and the Terrace of the Leper King.

In the afternoon, proceed to the ethereal Ta Prohm Temple, built in AD 1186 by King Jayavarman VII a,nd witness how the trunks of trees seem to devour the temples. After your tour of the temples, weather permitting, you’ll have the opportunity to rise 200 meters (can be in the morning or afternoon depending on the weather) over the site by a tethered helium balloon to admire an areal view over the temple and jungle.

This tour concludes with drop-off at your hotel in the city.

Amazing Angkor

Today I had the pleasure to visit Angkor temples with Nak. Everything was wonderful. I was received with great attention and details. Nak was very kind and took a lot of photos for me. He was very knowledgeable and proud of his heritage. The temples were absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend this tour. Don’t forget to ask for Nak as your tour guide.

Experiencing Angkor's magic with family

An amazing experience!! Phy picked us up in the morning and guided us through the miracle monument of Angkor Wat. We travelled with small kids so it was really helpful that Phy adjusted the itinerary to the needs of our family. He told us a lot about the history of the temples and assured that we all enjoyed an adventurous and insightful time. Thanks a lot to Phy and his tour operation company!

Amazing Angkor Wat - Siem Reap

Amazing ancient contraction... I highly recommend to go with an guide to get more knowledge about the whole history and the background information. I tried to do it also on my own, but there you get only a limited chance to soak all that knowledge. Thank you my tour guide Mr. Ty Sath for your hospitality and excellent tour

Must do when you are in Angkor Wat!

I had a great time with Sath and the driver. We travelled to Angkor Wat, Bayon, and Ta Phrom with nice experiences . Sath, our guide, is well-versed in the history and architecture of the compound. The automobile ride (private van) was quite chilly and refreshing. The cold water offered was quite beneficial in dealing with the heat.

Más que impresionante: imprescindible!

Hemos visitado 3 diferentes templos dentro del complejo de Angkor, todos increíbles! Las explicaciones de Sath, nuestro guía local, han sido una inmersión en la historia de cada uno de ellos, haciendo aún más interesante la visita. Nuestro conductor ha estado siempre atento para desplazarnos y recogernos en los diferentes puntos de la visita, lo que es de agradecer enormemente, y siempre con una botella de agua fría para cada una, algo que era muy necesario con este calor! También hemos hecho el ascenso en globo, una nueva experiencia para mí, en la que me he sentido muy segura y he disfrutado oteando el panorama desde el cielo. Hemos hecho el almuerzo en un restaurante donde nos han tratado con mucha atención, degustando las típicas comidas jemer, todas ellas deliciosas! Al regresar nos han dejado de nuevo en el hotel, a la hora prevista, así que puedo decir que el tour ha sido de 10!!! Gracias Sath por las mil fotos que nos has hecho, que además han quedado profesionales! Sin duda, recuerdos para toda la vida, un tour que no puedes perderte si vienes a Camboya. Gracias Sath!!!

100% worth the money

Sath was a great tour guide, he was so knowledgeable and passionate about Angkor Wat’s history. I would definitely recommend this tour for history buffs or anyone interested in the mysticism of Angkor Wat. The balloon ride was incredible and we had a spectacular view of Angkor Wat and the surrounding jungle.

Beautiful Siem Reap and Awesome Tour Guide Phy!

Took the private tour with Phy. Very patient and friendly guy. Very comfortable to talk to. He is very passionate about the culture and explain the visiting sites really well. He is also very caring and understanding as I’m an solo female traveller. The whole time, I feel very safe with Phy and the driver. Sorry I forgot his name. I enjoyed the tour so much and I must say this is something you need to do once in your lifetime. Cambodia is such a beautiful ancient country that not known to many. So raw and rich with historical sites and views. I’m glad to decide to visit Cambodia, Siem Reap. I would love to go there again.

Perfect tour with Balloon ride and excellent guide

We booked the trip as a small group Tour and found our self in a Perfect private Tour with Nak a fantastic tour guide and a private driver. The transport was done with an airconditioned Minibus whiche I can highly recommend due to the heat and hummidity. Nak who was a former Buddhist monch supplied us with all detailed information and was able to summarize the complex history of all the famous places in a simple and comfortable way. We really had the feeling to get a Deep Insight by a local. Just a perfect tour.
