4 Days Magic Angkor Tour

Get stuck straight into this 4-day temple-hopping adventure at the remote Rolous Group. We will be met at Siem Reap International Airport and drive to the hotel for check-in. We then have some time to settle into our surroundings with lunch at our leisure. Siem Reap is packed full of tasty options, ranging from local to international cuisine. In the afternoon, we start our exploration of the religious structures that dot Angkor Archaeological Park at the less-visited temples found at Rolous Group. Sitting about 13 km from Siem Reap city, the group of small temples – PreahKo, Bakong and Lolei – once served as the seat of Hariharalaya and was the first capital of the Khmer Empire. We then return to the hotel in time for dinner at a local restaurant.

Take a step back in time and delve into the jewel of Cambodia’s crown, the temples of Angkor Wat. We start the day 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 to stand in the shadows of its hundreds of giant carved faces; 11th century Baphoun; the small Hindu temple of BakseiChamkrong; and Elephant Terrace and the Terrace of the Leper King. After lunch, we head to the star of the show, incredible 12th century Angkor Wat. The architectural feat stood at the heart of the Khmer Empire. In the evening, dinner is at our leisure before we barter for bargains at vibrant Angkor Night Market.

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.
