Stop At: Angkor Wat, Sangkat Nokor Thum, Siem Reap Cambodia
Angkor Wat (/ˌæŋkɔːr ˈwɒt/; Khmer: អង្គរវត្ត, "City/Capital of Temples") is a temple complex in Cambodia and one of the largest religious monuments in the world, on a site measuring 162.6 hectares (1,626,000 m2; 402 acres).[1] Originally constructed as a Hindu temple dedicated to the god Vishnu for the Khmer Empire, it was gradually transformed into a Buddhist temple towards the end of the 12th century.[2] It was built by the Khmer King Suryavarman II[3] in the early 12th century in Yaśodharapura (Khmer: យសោធរបុរៈ, present-day Angkor), the capital of the Khmer Empire, as his state temple and eventual mausoleum. Breaking from the Shaiva tradition of previous kings, Angkor Wat was instead dedicated to Vishnu. As the best-preserved temple at the site, it is the only one to have remained a significant religious centre since its foundation. The temple is at the top of the high classical style of Khmer architecture. It has become a symbol of Cambodia,[4] appearing on its national flag, and it is the country's prime attraction for visitors.[5]
Angkor Wat combines two basic plans of Khmer temple architecture: the temple-mountain and the later galleried temple. It is designed to represent Mount Meru, home of the devas in Hindu mythology: within a moat more than 5 kilometres (3 mi) long[6] and an outer wall 3.6 kilometres (2.2 mi) long are three rectangular galleries, each raised above the next. At the centre of the temple stands a quincunx of towers. Unlike most Angkorian temples, Angkor Wat is oriented to the west; scholars are divided as to the significance of this. The temple is admired for the grandeur and harmony of the architecture, its extensive bas-reliefs, and for the numerous devatas adorning its walls.
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Angkor Thom South Gate, National Road #6 Angkor Archaeological Park, Siem Reap 17252 Cambodia
Angkor Thom (Khmer: អង្គរធំ pronounced [ʔɑːŋ.kɔː.tʰum]; literally: "Great City"), (alternative name: Nokor Thom, នគរធំ) located in present-day Cambodia, was the last and most enduring capital city of the Khmer empire. It was established in the late twelfth century by King Jayavarman VII.[1]:378–382[2]:170 It covers an area of 9 km², within which are located several monuments from earlier eras as well as those established by Jayavarman and his successors. At the centre of the city is Jayavarman's state temple, the Bayon, with the other major sites clustered around the Victory Square immediately to the north. It is also a very big tourist attraction, and people come from all over the world to find it.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Bayon Temple, Angkor Thom, Siem Reap Cambodia
The Bayon (Khmer: ប្រាសាទបាយ័ន, Prasat Bayon) is a richly decorated Khmer temple at Angkor in Cambodia. Built in the late 12th or early 13th century as the state temple of the Mahayana Buddhist King Jayavarman VII (Khmer: ព្រះបាទជ័យវរ្ម័នទី ៧), the Bayon stands at the centre of Jayavarman's capital, Angkor Thom (Khmer: អង្គរធំ).[1][2] Following Jayavarman's death, it was modified and augmented by later Hindu and Theravada Buddhist kings in accordance with their own religious preferences.
The Bayon's most distinctive feature is the multitude of serene and smiling stone faces on the many towers which jut out from the upper terrace and cluster around its central peak.[3] The temple has two sets of bas-reliefs, which present a combination of mythological, historical, and mundane scenes. The main conservatory body, the Japanese Government Team for the Safeguarding of Angkor (the JSA) has described the temple as "the most striking expression of the baroque style" of Khmer architecture, as contrasted with the classical style of Angkor Wat (Khmer: ប្រាសាទអង្គរវត្ត).
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Preah Khan, Angkor Wat Angkor Archaelogical Park, Siem Reap 17252 Cambodia
Preah Khan (Khmer: ប្រាសាទព្រះខ័ន; "Royal Sword") is a temple at Angkor, Cambodia, built in the 12th century for King Jayavarman VII to honor his father.[1]:383–384,389[2]:174–176 It is located northeast of Angkor Thom and just west of the Jayatataka baray, with which it was associated. It was the centre of a substantial organisation, with almost 100,000 officials and servants. The temple is flat in design, with a basic plan of successive rectangular galleries around a Buddhist sanctuary complicated by Hindu satellite temples and numerous later additions. Like the nearby Ta Prohm, Preah Khan has been left largely unrestored, with numerous trees and other vegetation growing among the ruins.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Ta Prohm Temple, Angkor Archaeological Park, Siem Reap 21000 Cambodia
Ta Prohm (Khmer: ប្រាសាទតាព្រហ្ម, pronunciation: prasat taprohm) is the modern name of the temple at Angkor, Siem Reap Province, Cambodia, built in the Bayon style largely in the late 12th and early 13th centuries and originally called Rajavihara (in Khmer: រាជវិហារ). Located approximately one kilometre east of Angkor Thom and on the southern edge of the East Baray, it was founded by the Khmer King Jayavarman VII[1]:125[2]:388 as a Mahayana Buddhist monastery and university. Unlike most Angkorian temples, Ta Prohm is in much the same condition in which it was found: the photogenic and atmospheric combination of trees growing out of the ruins and the jungle surroundings have made it one of Angkor's most popular temples with visitors. UNESCO inscribed Ta Prohm on the World Heritage List in 1992. Today, it is one of the most visited complexes in Cambodia’s Angkor region. The conservation and restoration of Ta Prohm is a partnership project of the Archaeological Survey of India and the APSARA (Authority for the Protection and Management of Angkor and the Region of Siem Reap).

Wonderful communication from start to finish. Completely customized according to our wishes - including last minute requests. The transportation was terrific. The tours were private and very well done. The hotel was great. I would recommend this tour to any of my friends or family without hesitation.

Angkor Wat is truly amazing! Our guide Johnny was knowledgeable, professional and very kind. Accommodated our pace and our photographs. Took us to a good place for lunch. Highly recommended. A good hotel and good drivers. The only glitch was at the border crossing from Thailand to Cambodia, when our first handler abandoned some of us. The other people who helped at the border were great.

Fantastic, well staged tour sequence. Driving time from Bangkok to Siem Reap was a bit tedious at 5+ hours, but fun to see the countryside.
Border crossing is long and drawn out.
Incredible 5 star hotel , really impressed.
Angkor Wat was well worth the effort; truly amazing. We appreciated Rhak, our guide’s detailed knowledge of Hindu and Buddhist stories and traditions represented in the stone carvings and etching.
Siem Reap is easy to navigate, lots of tuk-tuks around, very hungry for tourists and everyone is eager to please.
Everything is Cambodian riels (around 4000/dollar) and also US $ labeled and welcomed. Thai bhats also welcomed. Tons of ATM’s that will dispense riels or US $.
Great trip!

We enjoyed Cambodia very much and the company worked well with me to customize what I wanted to do. As this was not my first trip but was for my husband and I wanted things not in tour. That being said the transport both times on the Thailand said was not good. The van kept leaking water from the AC all over us. I was not a fan !

Great trip to the outstanding archeological site Angkor Wat.
Our group was promptly picked up at our hotel for the all day drive to Cambodia and Siem Reap. The driver gave us a pit stop every 1.5 hour or so to break up the drive. We crossed the border at Poi Pet. A handler met us there to help in going through immigration control, and all went smoothly and relatively quickly. We were prepared with the Cambodian e-visa. We transferred to another driver on the Cambodia side and proceeded to the hotel, which is quite nice and 4 star rated. In the afternoon, we visited the Floating Village at Tonle Sap Lake. We loved the scenery since it is similar to our home area in south Louisiana.
The next day was a long and hot day visiting several major temples at the Angkor Wat site. Our guide spoke English reasonably well, though not perfectly fluent. He explained the history and architecture for the various temples, We also just enjoyed talking to him about life in Cambodia and its recent, but tragic history. We had plenty of opportunity for photos, videos, and questions. The guide is proud of his heritage and loves working with tourists. We enjoyed the antiquities very much.
After the long day, we enjoyed the hotel pool and cocktails at sunset. The food quality was very good. Most of the hotel staff spoke English.
The next morning we got an early start for the return to Bangkok. We had about a 2 hour delay at the border crossing at Poi Pet; many said it was a surge in visitors for the Chinese New Year.
Overall, the excursion was well organized and executed. The staff were friendly and helpful. We had a great trip. In addition, we saved a lot of money compared to the price our cruise ship wanted for the same excursion.
Highly recommended.

The hotel and Angkor Wat temples were amazing. Way better than we expected. Taking 3-days tour is way better than 2-day. WE had extra chance to enjoy the hotel, massage and evening in the city. Transportation and crossing the border was very smooth.
The only minus was on the way back when we hit a huge traffic on the border and it took us 3 hours to line-up on the way to Thailand. The reason was beginning of the Chinese New Year. But the local staff knows those holidays and they could advise us about the traffic, so we would leave maybe a day before late evening and the trip back to Bangkok would take us 6-7 hours instead of 10 hrs.
But overall, it was a very good experience, extremely polite and welcoming staff. We will have great memories.

Our tour Guide Nueng Bunrongneng was fantastic!! He shared a lot of facts and history along with some myths. He made sure we all stayed together and that we had plenty of water on hand. A very lovely man who looked out for us the 2 days we were together. There was 9 total in the group and neither of us and a complaint at all. It was a completely great experience.

We give this tour 2 stars as there were only two good aspects; our tour give for the temple visits and the driver in Cambodia.
We were traveling as a group of 9. Picked up in Bangkok hotel and made one stop before arriving at the border. At the border meet by a APTT representative who told us we could stand in line for our Cambodian Visa or he could expedite it for us for an additional 7$ USD per passport to be paid to him. Total of 40$ (33Visa, 7 to him). We choose to expedite, but it standing in line on your own was much faster as we watched countless people get their visas while we waited 90 min. Total scam!
Our tour guide and driver in Cambodia were great; only downside is they take you to extremally touristry, expensive and marginal food places to eat. Family of four cost $50 USD to eat a tasteless lunch, but the restaurants were safe and no one got sick. The hotel in Cambodia is very average and all food/beverages on the expensive side.
On our return trip to Thailand we left the hotel at 8:30. Once we arrived at the border we were told it take 4 hrs to enter Thailand, we asked why so long and they said due to upcoming new years holiday, and we should have arrived earlier, yet no one told us that.
Once in Thailand we wanted to get going back to Bangkok immediately, but our driver was not ready. He put us in the van and we proceeded to wait 30 min for him to go to the toilet, smoke, get tea and some type of leaf.
Then we were on the road and 45 min in we were stopping, and noticed our driver was having a hard time staying awake. We stopped every 45 to 60 min for the driver to stretch, walk around and get some tea. We had to watch everything on the road and make loud noises to help keep him awake. Several times he braked very hard to keep from hitting vehicles in front of us. We asked to drive and he refused.
It tooks us 4 hours on the outbound trip to get from Bangkok to Border, going back to Bangkok it took us 6.5 hours, with same type of traffic.
I DO NOT recommend this company.
