Day 1

Siem Reap – Arrival

Start your exploration of Cambodia at the jewel in its crown – mighty Angkor Wat. Upon arrival at Siem Reap International Airport, we will drive to the hotel for check-in with lunch at our leisure. In the afternoon, we follow in the footsteps of kings as we explore the centre of the Khmer Empire, Angkor Wat. Undoubtedly the country’s most spectacular temple, Angkor Wat is among the world’s largest religious monuments, spanning 162.2 hectares. It was built in the 12th century as a Hindu temple, but later transformed into a place of worship for Buddhists, and served as the centre of the Angkor Empire. We then head to dinner before taking a stroll around bustling Angkor Night Market, home to more than 100 stalls selling electronics, jewellery, arts, clothing and everything in between. Please note: Visitors are required to keep their knees and shoulders covered at all sacred sites. The guide and transportation will be at our disposal until 9 pm. Overnight in Siem Reap.

Day 2

Siem Reap

Today’s temple-hopping adventure starts at the more remote temples of Banteay Srei and Banteay Samre. Well-preserved 10th century Banteay Srei is famed for its pink sandstone walls adorned with apsara carvings. Banteay Samre is a 12th century Hindu temple built in the style of Angkor Wat. On our way to lunch, we stop at a village and, depending on the season, watch rice being planted and sugar palm being made. The afternoon’s temple exploration starts at the South Gate of Angkor Thom, the Khmer Empire’s last capital built in the late-12th century. Inside the city’s ancient walls, we visit Bayon and its hundreds of giant carved faces; 11th century Baphoun; Hindu temple, Baksei Chamkrong; and Elephant Terrace and the Terrace of the Leper King. On our return to Siem Reap, we stop at Theam’s Gallery, a traditional home that has been transformed into the gallery of artist Lim Muy Theam. Please note: Visitors are required to keep their knees and shoulders covered at all sacred sites. Overnight in Siem Reap.

Day 3

Siem Reap – Departure

Experience life on the revered Tonle Sap Lake before diving into Cambodian culture. After breakfast, we hit the road to the Tonle Sap Lake to enjoy a gentle cruise to one of the fishing villages that dot the water. Here, we can see how life is lived as we sail past homes, schools and shops that bob on the water. We then head back to Siem Reap to delve into Cambodia’s rich culture at Artisans Angkor. The organisation has spent more than 2 decades rekindling the country’s traditional arts, training and employing artisans across the province. We meet artisans as they carry out silk weaving, stone and wood carving, lacquerware, and ceramics. We then enjoy lunch at a local restaurant, bringing an end to the tour. Please note: The high-level water season is from mid-July to mid-February and the low-level water season runs the rest of the year.. We transfer to Siem Reap Airport for our departure flight to next destination. Note: The itinerary is subject to last-minute change and modification depending on local conditions. If this occurs, we will provide an alternative activity.
