Highlights
Seeing Angkor by bicycle changes the pace of the visit entirely, and this full day tour takes you from temple to temple with a professional guide leading the way. After collecting your bike and adjusting it to fit, ride into Angkor Thom, the last capital of the Khmer Empire under Jayavarman VII, enclosed by an 8 metre high wall in a perfect square. At its centre stands the Bayon, famed for the 54 towers and roughly 200 serene stone faces representing the empire's provinces. A local lunch near Srah Srang breaks up the day before the afternoon ride to Ta Prohm, left as it was found, overgrown by jungle trees and vines and known to many as the 'Tomb Raider Temple'. Smaller sites including Banteay Kdei and Kravan round out the route. Choose to cycle the final stretch back or ride comfortably in the support vehicle. A full day that mixes light exercise with some of Angkor's most photographed temples.

Ablauf
Your biking guide will be ready at your hotel early in the morning, where you will be receiving your bicycles for the day. After some adjustments to fit your height, we are ready to move into the Angkor complex after obtaining the much-needed entrance pass to enter this magical place, covering hundreds of square kilometres in the past and was home to close to one million residents. Start your tour to the most spectacular temples at Angkor Thom, the last capital of the Great Khmer Empire under the reign of Jayavarman VII and one of the most important ancient cities. This city is surrounded by an 8-meter high wall, drawing a perfect square.
From here, pedal to the Bayon Temple in the exact centre of the city. This 12th-century masterpiece is a study in grandeur and is well-known for its 54 towers with enigmatic faces representing the 54 provinces of the former Great Khmer Empire. To enter one of the Royal sites at Angkor Thom – the Baphuon – one requires to be properly dressed.
We enjoy a local lunch at a restaurant near Srah Srang and the perfect time for a break to let all the impressions sink in as we have still an afternoon coming up.
Ta Prohm is unique in that it has been left as it was found; overgrown by jungle trees and vines, with many parts of the temple crumbling to the ground. This makes the ‘Tomb Raider Temple’ one of the most picturesque and memorable of the Angkor temples. Combined with the Banteay Kdei, one of the less-accessible temples, your afternoon starts in the same line as the morning. Taking in the smaller temple complexes completes your day, such as Sras Srong and Kravan Temple, cast a whole new light and shine because of their unique construction. It is time to head back to your hotel and your choice to end the day on your bike or comfortably drive back aboard your support vehicle.

About Siem Reap

Angkor Wat, oft das größte religiöse Bauwerk der Welt genannt, erhebt sich über seinem Wassergraben in einer Silhouette aus Lotosknospentürmen, die bei Sonnenaufgang atemberaubend ist.
