Full description

Day 1: Angkor Thom, Bayon, Neak Pean, Bantreay Srei, Banteay Samre, and Bakheng Mountain

Visit the Southern Gate of Angkor Thom, flanked by a row of 54 stone figures on each side - gods to the left and demons to the right – and the fortified city of Angkor Thom. At ‘The Bayon’, you will see its beautifully crafted central towers, covered in more than 200 enormous faces, then explore the famous Terrace of the Leper King and the Terrace of Elephants. Move to Neak Pean, an artificial island with a Buddhist temple. Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant before visiting the intricately carved and well-preserved Banteay Srei. The detailed reliefs on this smaller sandstone structure are regarded as the finest, most skillfully crafted in Cambodia.  One the way back, enjoy a brief stop at the well-preserved Banteay Samre, a laterite structure that once featured internal moats. End your discoveries with an ascent for sunset at Bakheng mountain.

Day 2: Angkor Wat at sunrise, Preah Khan, Ta Nei, and Ta Prohm Temple 

Begin with a pre-dawn departure for sunrise outside of Angkor Wat. Enter the great temple in darkness (please bring a torch) from the little-visited eastern side, and creep along hoary cloistered corridors past the longest stretch of bas-relief carvings in the world.  End your touring at Angkor with breakfast outside the temple. Continue by moving on to Preah Khan temple, a ruined but highly atmospheric mélange of tree roots and crumbling stone structures. At the end of the morning, have lunch at a local restaurant. Next, drive to Ta Nei, a late 12th century stone temple located in Angkor. Move on to the jungle-enveloped Ta Prohm, one of the most atmospheric temples in Angkor that was once home to 2,740 monks.

Sok was a perfect tour guide, he made us feel comfortable throughout the entire tour, fulfilled all of our special requests. Plus, he has a “narrator voice” that makes listening to him captivating. Yet, at the same time there is no information overload. He also knows how to take unique photos of you! Dena was a very safe and smooth driver. Both highly recommended. The 2 day tour was the ideal solution for us as we also got to see temples apart from Angkor Wat and Bayon where there were hardly any people. It made us feel as if we were the first people ever to discover the places deep down in the remote jungle. Please mind though that as for the sunrise at Angkor Wat you might not always be lucky weather wise, which was our case. Due to thunders in the early morning there literally was no sunrise. However, Sok still made the best of it for us! The restaurants you stop at for lunch and breakfast serve decent food that didn’t give us any stomach troubles. 10/10 experience

Visiting the temples was an amazing experience; we got to visit some of the most impressive ones, saw the sun rising over Angkor Wat and our guide and driver were friendly and made sure we got all we needed. I was also impressed to learn about life in Cambodia from our guide.

An excellent 2 day private tour 17th & 18th March '23, with an enlightening, informative and extremely pleasant guide. Day 1 was a full 11 hour day, taking in 6 temples and lunch. The final temple visit was for the sunset. Day 2 was a 4.45am start, for a sunrise visit to Angkor Wat, subsequently visiting 2 more temples and then a mid day drop off. Our guide did offer to take us to more temples, but we were flagging in the heat and decided not to accept his offer! Top marks to our guide, Samnang Yean (Lucky) and our driver, Usa, who were both excellent and affable. The stories behind the temples were fascinating and interesting and brought everything to life! Very highly recommended if our guide and driver are anything to go by...many thanks to them both for making our 2 day tour so pleasurable.
