Expert Tips for Day 1:
Please note that the new Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport (SAI) is located approximately 45-60 minutes from the city center. Your private transfer is the most comfortable and reliable way to reach your hotel after a long flight. If you arrive in the afternoon and feel energetic, we recommend a stroll through the Old Market (Phsar Chas) area to get a feel for the local rhythm. Our team monitors all flight statuses in real-time, so your guide will be there to meet you even if your flight is delayed.
Today is a journey through time as you explore the colossal stone masterpieces and jungle-clad ruins of the Angkor Archaeological Park.
Morning: Jungle Temples & Hidden Passages: Your adventure begins at Banteay Kdei, a quiet, sprawling monastic complex that offers a peaceful start to the day. From there, you will head to the world-famous Ta Prohm. Unlike other temples, Ta Prohm has been left to the clutches of the jungle, where massive silk-cotton trees and strangler figs grow directly out of the ruins—a breathtaking sight made famous by cinema.
Afternoon: The Lost Capital & Divine Faces: After a local lunch, enter the grand walled city of Angkor Thom through the monumental Victory Gate. You will explore the heart of this ancient capital, including the Terrace of the Leper King, the Royal Palace, and the enigmatic Bayon Temple, famous for its 54 towers adorned with over 200 serene, smiling stone faces. Your temple exploration concludes at the impressive Preah Khan, a labyrinthine complex built by King Jayavarman VII to honor his father.
Evening: Apsara Dance & Traditional Flavors: As the sun sets, experience the grace of Cambodian culture with a traditional Apsara Dancing Show paired with a buffet dinner. Watch as performers in shimmering silk costumes bring ancient legends to life through intricate hand gestures and movements. To add to the local charm, you will be transported to the venue by a Tuk-Tuk, the most iconic and fun way to navigate the streets of Siem Reap.

Expert Tips for Day 2:
To respect the sacred nature of the Angkor temples, a strict dress code is required: please ensure your shoulders and knees are covered (scarves or sarongs are acceptable). We recommend wearing breathable, light-colored clothing and sturdy walking shoes, as the temple stones can be uneven and the tropical sun intense. Your private guide will carry chilled bottled water for you, but we also suggest bringing a hat and sunscreen. For the best photos at Ta Prohm, your guide will lead you through the lesser-known entrances to avoid the main tour groups.
Your journey through the ancient mysteries and vibrant culture of Cambodia concludes today with a smooth and comfortable transition to your next destination.
A Final Morning in Siem Reap: After a leisurely breakfast at your hotel, enjoy some free time to soak in the final moments of your Cambodian adventure. You may choose to wander through the Old Market (Phsar Chas) to pick up unique handcrafted souvenirs, explore the local artisan boutiques for high-quality silk, or simply relax at a riverside café and reflect on the memories of the past few days.
Transfer to Airport: At the designated time, your private driver will meet you for the transfer to the Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport (SAI). We ensure you arrive well in advance for your departure flight, assisting with your luggage and the check-in process to make your journey home or to your next stop as effortless as possible.
Departure from Cambodia: As you board your flight, the echoes of ancient stone faces and the warmth of Khmer hospitality will stay with you. Our service concludes here, and we wish you a safe and pleasant journey ahead!
