Description

Join an unforgettable experience on this private tour of Angkor Wat. Follow an English-speaking guide and explore the Angkor complex before the crowds.
At 8:30 AM, depart from your hotel and travel to Angkor Archaeological Park. First, travel to Angkor Thom, the last capital of the Angkorian Empire. It was built by Angkor's greatest king, Jayavarman VII. Angkor Thom's major attraction is the Bayon Temple, where you can marvel at wise smiling faces. After, visit the Terrace of Elephants. It was used as a giant review stands for public ceremonies and as a base for the King’s grand audience hall. The Terrace of the Leper King is another of Angkor’s mysteries, whose walls are deeply carved with seated deities. You will continue to Ta Prohm, a jungle-clad temple offering strange beauty as stone works intertwine with jungle vines. For many this temple will be well known as it was featured in Angelina Jolie’s Tomb Raider.

Angkor Wat was built in the 12th century by King Suryavarman II. The temple's balance, composition, and beauty make it one of the finest monuments in the world. The sheer size of the monument makes it very overwhelming as it towers over the landscape and is breathtaking, especially at dawn. Towards the end of the afternoon, watch the sunset at Pre Rup, a Hindu temple built as the state temple of Khmer king Rajendravarman. This temple is very popular among tourists for its sunset views. At 6:00 PM, your tour ends, and your driver transfers you back to your hotel.
